[B]Actually, yours seems the same opinion of everyone, at one time or another, on this forum (though they may deny it). The human gross anatomy and physiology defies comprehension, let alone its exceedingly complex microbiology, neurology, psychology, ethics, and spirituality. As a physician (podiatrist) who constantly deals with humans and persons (not synonymous), I perceive that they all, to some extent or other, don’t believe evolution could account for themselves and their illnesses.

Do you agree or disagree that info gain or loss is relevant when debating large-scale evolution, such as scales to feathers, no sonar to sonar, etc?

JM: I disagree since 'information' is such a nebulous term. How can you say what the 'marge' (sic) scale public believes? You can't even define the terms correctly on your home page!

So are you saying that a feather has more information than a scale? How do you figure the information content in these two features. Please answer in a completely quantitative manner. You can still answer even if a feather contains less information. I just want you to back up your idle chatter about information content.
