The hurricane organizes due to a an amazing coincidence of orbit and plantery rotation. The snowflake organizes due to an amazing coincidence of atomic layout. One by adding heat, the other by taking it away.

Yet what information is created? Organization is not information of itself. It is only some intelligent observer that can apply any pattern of information onto it.

When an obsever takes on a bent towards ToE, he drops the "amazing" first, and as time goes by becomes less and less able or motivated to apply any informative patterns. For all become equivalent for defiency of a philosophy.

And once equivalency takes hold, it affects all cognition and interaction -- they become more and more base, animalistic, crude.

Simple socio-physics.

QED. ToE, Dawkins-extreme, is very anti-science.

I think the evolutionist would argue that anyone can observe "patterns", but are you saying that without the philosophical basis upon which to ascribe meaning to some patterns over others, science becomes impossible?

(Or do I misunderstand?)
