[I continue my selective summary.
We do not have an intuitive feel for the ways of spontaneous orders.
Our intuitive feel is so poor that we ask God to act for us in ways that would undermine His own spontaneous order.
One reason why we ask God to act for us comes from our participation in His Created Order, or, less heavy on capital letters, from our participation in biological spontaneous orders. Schoonenberg’s quote of de Chardin shows that we participate in a wide range of interscoping nested forms, which means that failure can occur in all sorts of ways.
We are vulnerable. So we pray for special favors.]
