There are variables that you can plug into the program but they are still under the constraints of the program.

Adaption is actually changing something fundamental about the species -- like increased resistance to a specific bug spray.

And if you change Windows enough, patch it enough, you do end up with a fundamentally different piece of software.

In fact, software is a perfect example of 'adaption'. Software like Windows has 'evolved' thru many, many small adaptions.

Your example proves my point.

There was no intelligent interaction or creation of the program?

Your example proves my point.

LOL!

Yes, you do, but those changes were done by intelligent designers. Are you seriously saying that if you wrote a program to randomly change bits and bytes in Windows you would ever get a better program? Are you saying something that ridiculous?

The ONLY point proven here is that Windows did NOT change itself from 98 to 2000.

It took the brains and hands of MANY 'Intelligent Designers'.
