Natural Selection explains the gain in information complexity Natural selection alone doesn't explain anything about information complexity.

in the special case where information flow is always and only from parent to child. Are you thinking "information flow" (which you seem to be using for inheritance) sometimes goes from child to parent?

It's not just the differential survival, but the fact that it is only the survivors which pass on that information. That only survivors get to pass on information is what differential survival means.

... Natural Selection explains organisms body types, but does not explain human language or other information flows that don't fall into this specific subcategory. Plenty of evolutionists think natural selection explains everything .. language, music, every aspect of human behavior.
