Re: Aristotle rejects natural selection, and dislikes it's adherents

You always refer to the massive number of neurons, and how complex it
is, and if I only knew how. You have nothing, and I have consistent
logic, and observation.

As before, no matter what you say, no logic of choosing that is based
on going an alternative way, can function without the reference to
nothing as where the new information comes from which alternative is
realized. So that means it isn't even possible to formulate a theory
consistently without it.

You say emergence is when the end result is more than the sum of the
parts. So where is the difference coming from then? From nothing.

How about you start trying to be a nice human being and attempt to
understand what I wrote? At least make some effort.

I don't like being called a fraud when I'm being open and honst. I
don't think you are a fraud but simple do not understand things in the
same way as I or others do.

The input
neccessary for free will, is that it must be able to create
information from nothing.

Information is not created from nothing.

That is the magic, it can turn out one way
or another, and the information which way it goes is created on the
spot. And furthermore, everything is create in like manner, every
specie, and every rock, from nothing.

Information is not created from nothing.  The closet you would get
would be information from static - that is information in one sense of
the word as chaotic patterns contain more information in broadcast
sense, but the opposite in other senses.

Data is created from how the universe works - the location of a comet
is data. Only when that data is put into context do we start getting
informaiton - for example it's locaiton needs to be put into context
fo us to understand where it is - for example how far away from Earth
it is. This is data being turned to information.

Information, in many respects, follows the same rules as energy and
other elements of science. There is also information theory which has
many uses and explains how to effectively broadcast information.

I'm not sure where to start to try and explain it to you but
information realy never comes from nothing - it is always a
combination of or caused by something else.
