What makes biology special in your mind that it can be the only thing in the universe which can evolve? Why can't cars, or sets of variables in a computer evolve?
I have not said that.
However, your whole thesis is about demonstrating that biological evolution requires intellect. If your 'evolution' examples aren't isomorphic to biological evolution, your argument becomes trivial and uninteresting.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
