Matter left to itself (as far as real, observational science goes) does not give rise to such information. The only alternative is that at some point a creative mind “outside the system” imposed intelligence onto matter (as you do when you write a sentence) and programmed all the original kinds of plants and animals. This programming of the ancestors of today’s organisms must have been achieved miraculously (supernaturally), since natural law does not create information.

This is quite consistent with the Genesis statement that God created organisms to reproduce “after their kind”. For example, a hypothetical “dog kind”, created with a large amount of built-in variation (and no original defects), could vary simply by recombinations of that original information to give rise to wolf, coyote, dingo and so forth.

Natural selection can “cull and sort” this information (but cannot create any more), as we saw in our mosquito example. The differences between the resulting offspring, without any new information being added (and therefore no evolution) can be large enough to warrant them being called different species.

The way in which a mongrel dog population can be thinned out by artificial selection into sub-types (domestic breeds) helps us to understand this. Each sub-type carries only a fraction of the original “pool” of information. That’s why, starting only with Chihuahuas, you will never be able to breed anything like a Great Dane—the necessary information is simply no longer in the population.

In the same way, the original “elephant kind” may have been “split” (by natural selection acting on its created information) into the African elephant, Indian elephant, the mammoth and the mastodon (the last two now extinct) and possibly others.22
