An inventive mechanism (Evolution)

Tony: Polymorphism allows the change within kinds, not invention.
> > 
> > David: That still leaves us with pre-planning, dabbling or the inventive mechanism has pre-set plans within it.
 
 
> Tony:Programs can not invent. Period. They can implement anything within the scope of their design, but they can not create new information from whole-cloth. That is the sort of adaptation that we actually observe in nature. It is not inventive. It may move within a broad range of possible values, and different combinations of those value types might give the appearance of invention, but it is not invention.-I know programs can only do what they are set to do.But that does not exclude God from putting future plans into the genome for later action. This is what I meant by an inventive mechanism.
