One problem is that some people like to use the word "information" in various contratictory ways (in the same essay) in order to confuse these issues. Much of the stuff from "Discovery Institute" is of this nature. Similarly for the term "complexity." I see no reason to attribute honesty to those who do this intentionally.
I do believe it is important on these kinds of threads to agree to definitions as early as possible. Without qualifiers or definitions, the words "information" and "complexity" are much too generalized to be communicative.
