Embedded Intelligence Is Only ID Argument Science Can Not Answer
Intelligence Had to Come First
The realization that Life is a process, a process requires the use of machines, and machines can only exist if they have embedded intelligent (at least logical) functionality, solves the chicken and egg problem. Except it is not chicken vs. egg, it is matter/energy vs. intelligence. Chickens and eggs are the same things in different forms, or at different stages. Matter/energy and intelligence are two separate types of entities. It takes intelligent work to embed intelligence into matter/energy before life or machines can exist. The universe, sans intelligence, i.e., all machines, including life and entities created by them, can be accounted for by the laws of physics.. The laws of physics have no provision to create intelligence because natural causes cannot perform a single logical decision. This if falsifiable.
THEREFORE: The only explanation for our existence is that intelligence exists in some form other than matter/energy as we know it.
All of the other arguments regarding natural causes creating beginning life are, from a theoretical scientific point of view, possible. Complexity, coherence, source of information and mechanisms are all valid and true arguments against naturally created beginning life from a statistical and/or logic point of view, but they are not falsifiable.
A demonstration of natural causes performing logical functionality would falsify the embedded intelligence argument posited in the “On the Limits of Natural Causes” paper. I will update the paper to include the falsification differences presented here in the paper, then remove this post.
