Good points and good questions. Thanks for thinking.
There is no "fitness," as Darwin called it, without conditions and elements that make biological motion take place toward increasing order, rather than decreasing order.
That independent machines survive in order to be present at the moment of crucial evolution is certainly not hocus pocus.
Would you care to define "biological motion"?
I notice a high correlation between criticism of evolution and ignorance of its basic principles. When a critic starts an argument by saying Evolution is predicated on an hypothesis that the moon is made of green cheese, nothing worthwhile is likely to follow.
