So it is reasonable to assume that this worm/parasite is now on the endangered list? won't be long before someone on TV will be asking us for just £2 a month to save it

#10, I don't think #1 meant it that way..I agree, it's about evolution and nothing else but that, therefore every living organism has a purpose, even parasites, otherwise it would not be part of the whole ecosystem,

#11 Well, stating that everything has a purpose is going a bit head-to-head with the whole evolution thing. That's what creationism teaches, that everything was created and has a purpose. Perhaps you meant that everything has a role or a place in this world, to which I agree, but I think we can manage living without this one parasite.

#12 Ouch, you are right, poor choice of words on my part and thank you for still understanding me correctly, because the way you said it is the way I meant it...and yes, I think so too that we can live without that one...still from a scientific view it would be interesting to know what its "role" in the ecosystem is...could be a topic for someone's doctorate in biology..
