George: The only reason I quoted Foster was to give an reasoned estimate of the amount information in DNA. There is probably more than the estimate given, considering the current research. I am aware of the errors in Foster. The Wistar Institute is a part of the U. of Pennsylvania and is independent of "Intelligent Design", a term that did not exist to my knowledge in 1967. The mathematics presented impressed Ernst Mayr who said, and I paraphrase, "we needn't be concerned, we know evolution occurred". I know evolution occurred, I am only questioning the method. I don't believe Darwin's theory. I have a copy of the Wistar Symposium so I know the Mayr comment. Berlinski was invited to join the Discovery Institute after presenting many mathematical objections to Darwin. I have read a number of his papers. I suggest you search out original sources rather than judge opinions thru the filter of Darwinist websites. That is the only way to make a judgement based on rival opinions.
