Re: Truth-Basic view on reality

What I did was take a random set of letters,
AFGTIFPTKINW
Then, I wrote a spreadsheet to randomly generate a new set.
This came out:
SERTUBPOGJRD
Working as evolution does, to keep what works (those that don't, simply die off) and our requirement to fit this imaginary 'niche' is the sentence "DARWIN RULES", it seems as if the third letter fits the bill. So now, we keep the 'R' and randomly generate the rest. And after only 39 "Generations", the full sentence appeared. I suppose I should run the experiment a few million times to get the average for generating the sentence that'll fit the 'niche', but this serves to illustrate.

I understand your point. Although it appears, at least to me, that you are the intelligent mind and designer behind this "random generater". If it has intent, it has intelligence. In other words, try spelling darwin rules, with complete random chaos. If your mind is involved or the program is 'designed' in such a way to accomplish something, a form of intelligence should be agreed to have pre existed the creation of your random generation, should it not?

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
