You have to ask the right question to get the right answer.

Did echolocation evolve - 100% yes.
Was it designed - not in any sense that we might understand, but in a loose, general sense, possibly?

Because you pose the question as black or white, one or the other, you completely eliminate the only answer that is evidence-based and probable from a religious standpoint. We know echolocation evolved as did everything else because that is the fundamental state of reality, that is what the evidence supports.

Was it, "Designed" depends on what you mean by, designed. If a G.d exists then by some unknowable process creatures came into being because they were caused to evolve into what they became and are becoming.

So if you remove evolution you remove Creation and if you claimed G.d designed, then you are using some marketing jargon to cheapen the unknowable Will of G.d that acts upon every vibrating atom.

Nothing derived by evolution is an accident, is that your point?
Just as nothing came about complete via Special Creation, as per literal Genesis.

I'm sure you already know this but the only points MrG is concerned with relate to his holy quota of good news preaching faithfully carried out.

Because of Covid restrictions we see on HC an increase in mindless cut and paste proselytizing .. energy which normally would be directed to those hapless unfortunates still in their Pj's and wondering what planet they have woken up on as they answer the door bell.
