Advocates can point to empirical evidence which they claim supports

in their world that's sufficient. Evidence of design is the Cambrian
explosion where a myriad of new body plans appeared abruptly,
geologically speaking.

I.e. not abruptly, but over 10 million years.

The problem is information. How and from where did the information to
build the bodies of the Cambrian animals come from? If the present is
key to the past. At the present time, today information comes only
from mind. So, must it have been during the Cambrian.

If you want to see how complexity can arise from simplicity, look at
John Conways Game of Life.

God would seem much more intelligent if he invented evolution than if he
invented various life forms which then went extinct.
