Information is precisely where the physical universe came from. Earth and what has occurred here is, of course, part of that. Evolution is a fair name for it, but we could pick another. Insisting it is the hand of some consciousness, however, begs questions about the steadiness of that "hand". To our eyes, it seems to have done a great deal of unnecessary things and countless errors. In addition, it has to be admitted that things are much more complicated and time consuming than they could have been. Why is there death? Why do creatures have to eat one another? That defies human concepts of 'intelligent design'.
