Once again, you conveniently forgot to mention that genetic
information is corrected and amplified by reproduction and natural
selection, no intelligence necessary.

No, it is not corrected through reproduction,
Read for comprehension. Yes, it is corrected through reproduction
*and* natural selection. Reproduction amplifies more fit mutations,
natural selection removes less fit mutations. I know you know this.
Yes, and I've recognized and pointed this out. There are countless
errors and mutations, caused by radiation, copy error, omissions, but
the overwhelming majority or proofread and repaired. But there are a few
mutations that the P&R machines does not detect. These mutations are
passed on
to offspring.
No, those mutations are not passed on to offspring, for
reasons that have been explained to you several times.
The mutations that are repaired and corrected are ones
that happen in mitosis, the cell division process. But,
in multicellular organisms, these cells do not reproduce.
The cells that reproduce are gametes. They are formed in
the process of meosis, in which genetic variations and
mutations can be passed on. They are not "repaired" to
look like the parent genome, because they are supposed to
be different. The function of the whole process is to
produce variations in offspring because that drives the
whole process of adaptation and evolution.
Life has evolved the ability to evolve.
Do you have any idea why sexual reproduction is so
common?
Of course, you will ignore this and repeat your false
assertions over and over because you are incapable of
learning and adapting.
If you are resolutely determined to remain ignorant, you
will succeed.

OK, in regards to the Cambrian Explosion, there were oceans where an
abundance of new, unknown complex organisms abruptly appeared
(geologically speaking) where prior to this, there were billions of
years where only single cell organisms were found in the strata.
No, there were multi-celled organisms long before the
Cambrian. They were soft-bodied and left very few
fossils, but there are some.
This has also been explained to you, and your ignorance
has prevailed over enlightenment yet again.
Not
only was this and explosion of complex organisms, this was accompanied
with an explosion of instructive information. The origin of which is
unknown.
You seem to think evolution and the geneneration of
genetic "information" are separate and unrelated
processes. They are not. The generation of genetic
"information" is the process of evolution itself. What
else do you think it is that evolves?
This has also been explained to you before. But again,
you will always favor the ignorance of IDism.
