complex specified misinformation

Intelligent design, complex specified misinformation
Intelligent design sees "complex specified information" as requiring a creator. They cite Mt Rushmore as a classic example. Followers of ID ignore the back of Mt Rushmore, a clear example of "complex specified misinformation".

"Misinformation" is a human concept and always requires a creator or designer. "Information" on the other hand can also be created by a combination of chance and selection (cf), for example, the vertebrate immune system. Intelligent design is "complex specified misinformation". The latter is a key feature of pseudoscience.
