gpukio is unaccomplished, except as a blustering moron

Hi, UB,

You are right, the modest potentials of natural selection are however the consequence and result of the existing replication process, that implies a lot of already existing information: not too much in the case of computer viruses, a huge amount for biological replicators.

And yet, even so, that limited power of NS cannot generate any significant new functional information, least of all true dFSCI. If my proposed simulation were accomplished, I am really sure that no results could be observed: the computer replicators would remain simple computer replicators, and would develop no new functions, certainly no complex ones.

I am sure of that. Our darwinist interlocutors, IMO, are as sure as I am of the same thing. That’s why they try in all possible ways to dismiss my model for testing the powers of NS, and seek refuge in their ad hoc, self-serving, useless GAs, whose results, although extremely modest, are nothing else than wonderful examples of intelligent design.

It's mostly just the usual blustering bullshit from gpukio, but there are a few things that stand out, and they're in here:

"...that limited power of NS cannot generate any significant new functional information, least of all true dFSCI. If my proposed simulation were accomplished,..."

Hey gpukio, precisely define "generate", "limited", and "significant" in the context of biological entities and in the context of your points, er, I mean bald assertions. Precisely define "new functional information" and "functional information" in the context of biological entities and in the context of your bald assertions. Precisely define "true dFSCI" or just plain old "dFSCI" in the context of biological entities and in the context of your bald assertions.

And where oh where is your "proposed simulation" and why isn't it "accomplished"? I'm sure that the entire scientific community has put aside all other work in anticipation of it, and won't rest until they see it.
