"Some physicists are convinced that the properties of information do not come from the behaviour of information carriers such as photons and electrons but the other way round. They think that information itself is the ghostly bedrock on which our universe is built."

Why did the phrase, "In the beginning was the Word - - -", suddenly come to mind?

Agreed. Pardon my illiteracy, but, what is meant by “information”?

[AceMineral]

In the beginning was Will and Idea.

Same here, FRiend....

The article is otherwise rather frustrating, in that it does not provide a means by which information gets a physical component.

Why did the phrase, "In the beginning was the Word - - -", suddenly come to mind?

Because it is intrinsically important to this subject.

From the article:

They think that information itself is the ghostly bedrock on which our universe is built.

Jesus Christ is the Word. He made everything, and by Him all things consist, or hold together.

Colossians 1

15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.

In my opinion this theory seems to have scriptural basis.

I'm thinking many modern scientists are going to have a hard time seeing it, though. They're not going to want to face up to the fact that information doesn't just make itself. It has a Source.

Sad, because the founders of this republic considered this to be as obvious as the nose on your face.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created..."

And the Apostle Paul knew it almost 2000 years ago.
