Skimming the article, it is sounding a little bit like "intelligent design", when it talks of "programming" humans.

In a sense, natural selection programs all organisms by allowing only the fit variations in a given generation to survive, promulgating the "fit genes" forward, but "design" or "program" are terms in this context to be used metaphorically. Natural Selection is itself an alogirthm: Variation + Selection + Inheritance = Evolution of new forms of life. So in this sense it is a "program" but only as a metaphor.

I have neither the time nor the patience to argue with an intelligent design advocate, anymore than I would spend time arguing with a flat earth advocate.
