信息论证:DNA中的信息指向智慧设计
The Argument from Information: DNA Points to Intelligent Design
核心论证 Core Argument
DNA分子中包含着高度复杂的指定信息(specified information),类似于计算机代码或人类语言。在我们所有的经验中,复杂的指定信息只有一个已知来源:智慧心灵。自然过程(如随机突变和自然选择)可以筛选和修改已有的信息,但从未被观察到能够从零产生全新的功能性生物信息。生命第一个细胞所需的最低信息量已远超纯粹偶然所能产生的。斯蒂芬·迈尔论证说,智慧设计是生物信息起源的最佳解释。
DNA molecules contain highly complex specified information, analogous to computer code or human language. In all our experience, complex specified information has only one known source: intelligent mind. Natural processes (random mutation and natural selection) can filter and modify existing information but have never been observed generating novel functional biological information from scratch. The minimum information required for the first living cell far exceeds what chance alone can produce. Stephen Meyer argues that intelligent design is the best explanation for the origin of biological information.
