Question on genetic information

Oh...wow. That definition sure clears things up.Seriously..."Sequence of things"??? How on earth does anyone accept this as anything resembling a scientific or testable definition? It disheartens me to think that the wool can be so thick over so many people's eyes that they would accept this definition as having any meaning at all.

I can see how Information Theory can be applied to genetics, in a vague sort of way since I am not very schooled in this theory.Could you perhaps elaborate on the what this theory might imply with regards to transmitting genetic information?Is the definition of information as presented in Information Theory pretty much the same as the definition I quoted in my post?Are we (evos) being disingenious when we state that the creationists won't or haven't yet defined information (IOW do they actually use the definition presented by Information Theory and can it be applied accurately to genetics)?Have a nice rest, Percy

Thank you both Percy and WK. This sounds quite interesting! I'll have to do some reading on it. Thank you. I figured as much, although superficially the two may seem the same, which, methinks, is exactly what the author intended - "to lend [it] an air of legitimacy," as you said.
