discipler why is it so HARD for you to understand what is going on here?
The rules that Conway, yes CREATED are infinitly more simple than the rules of the Universe. The rules of the universe deal with gravity, chemical reactions etc. etc....
What Conway tried to show is that with any SYTEM with RULES (such as ours) can appear chaotic when you press GO (hypothetically speaking) yet still end up producing MAD COMPLEXITY.
How those rules have arisen, yes you can feasibly place god there - but god seems to be on a slippery slope and the cliff is getting shorter and shorter.
What i'm trying to demonstrate to you, that a seemingly random act (i me moving my mouse over the life game board) can produce MAD COMPLEXITY, This puts to rest your theory that the second law of thermodynamics precludes evolution, as we see patterns emerging on the life game board, to the point that some of them look like organisms behaving in a certain way, emerging simply from dots on the board. Macroevolution?
Perhaps. It must be remembered that it is subjective human experience seeing these patterns, but then so it is when you say crazy shit like "super-computer complexity of dna".
