Actually I meant to criticize your premises. I find the first almost incoherent. What does it mean to say "no material causes have been discovered that demonstrate the power to produce large amounts of specified information, irreducible and interdependent biological systems"? Information is language dependent and we're the only ones we know using symbolic language. So do your "material causes" refer to human beings or to lightening storms or what? I don't follow.
