That's a really good explanation. The thing I have trouble with is things spontaneously and continually moving to higher order and more complexity on their own. If you leave a book alone for 50 years, it may lose info if a rat chews on it or if water damages it, but it won't get more info unless some intelligent being writes more in it. Or, in Dawkins' model, things move up the mountain of evolution, but things don't move up a mountain spontaneously...they tend to go down overtime, or at best stay where they are. That doesn't prove the existence of any particular god, but it does make evolution with no guiding hand hard to swallow.
