Information, the primal substance

I will now post selected excerpts from Dembski’s book, Being as Communion: A Metaphysics of Information, some of which I have included in my books and have made reference to in blogs. I strongly recommend this book to those who wish to understand the theory of communication. “For a thing to be real it must be able to communicate with other things. If this is so, then the problem of being receives a straightforward resolution: to be is to be in communion.” [Taken from the back cover piece] Dembski compellingly documents that “information in nature is ‘communion,’” and this extends to communion between the Mind of God and the mind of Man by the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit.
