"Exposing Discovery Institute": video series by "Professor" Dave Farina

Just returning to the original subject of this thread, none of the recent discussion here is supporting the professor. As I understand it, he basically holds a Dawkins-like position - all evolution is attributed to RM+NS. However, I don't listen to the professor regularly!!

Information is in the science sphere of pragmatic reality.

I think we need to pin down what you mean by "Information". I mean conventionally it either means Shannon information - and I don't think you mean that - or it means say the abstract contents of a book. Assuming the latter, information is still something passive. If you buy a book and then don't read it, it achieves nothing.

Information requires a conscious entity to read it.

Before even remotely considering the Third Way thinking I would need there to be plausible rebuttals to all the major arguments for ID, including the actual fossil record especially the Cambrian Explosion, the ubiquitous presence in all living organisms of irreducible complexity, and the wait time problem. Do you know of some?

I've now waited a while and Stephenw hasn't responded to my request for plausible rebuttals to some of the major arguments for ID, where ID seriously conflicts with the Third Way concepts. In the abscence of such plausible rebuttals I have to assume there are none and ID is by far the preferred concept to explain the actual observed process of evolution, the irreducible complexity in the organization of living organisms, etc. and as also exemplified by the fossil record.
