But when speaking of evolution via random mutation, the replication process is already in place. Origin of life arguments don't apply to probability of novel innovation via mutation.

My additional two points are not an argument against your position:
1. Observation: I suspect current research will show that the seeding for natural selection was more often opportunistic than random. The difference has to do with the capability of the genetic code to self-organize and thus, adapt. I truly believe we are only beginning to discover the algorithmic power of the genetic code.
2. Hypothesis: I assert that an algorithm at inception is proof of intelligent design. On a prior post I included two methods of falsification: that such algorithms or information content do not exist - or that such algorithms or information content can arise from null. These apply only to origins (abiogenesis, big bang, etc.) and not to any subsequent events, such as stellar or biological evolution – whether or not algorithmic in themselves.
