I wonder if he would have made these observations had he realized what it truly means. You can write a self-organizing, proliferating program, but it must be made operative. As a software program, the genetic code must also have a bootstrap.
My hypothesis: algorithm at inception is proof of intelligent design.
Yes, the evolutionists coulc not dispute that. Clearly they are trying in many ways to find a way to counter intelligent design. For example they keep talking of evolutionary pathways as if that would solve the complexity problem, they talk about co-evolution of traits (too bad random mutations cannot be reconciled with such an approach), and now they are even talking about 'self programming' as Dawkins does. Clearly all of these are attempts at explaining away the points being made by intelligent design but they are impossible to reconcile with evolutionary theory and change by mutation.
