Axe’s response reminds me of one of the 10 laws of Creationism:
- The Law of Reproducible Results : Anything found in nature was Designed, unless it can be reproduced in the lab. Corollary: Anything intentionally done in a lab is not natural; it’s a purposeful result. Therefore, all lab results are evidence of Intelligent Design.
It seems that cancer might get around both objections. Interesting. I’m curious to see how this plays out: Computing the Functional Information in Cancer.
