The assumption - that initial conditions exist - is in contradiction with the axiom that all information is functional. Or to put it less stiffly, the universe

The assumption - that initial conditions exist - is in contradiction with the axiom that all information is functional. Or to put it less stiffly, the universe can't be computed separately from itself, since it includes the evaluation of itself. Both statements are in contrast with a classical deterministic universe, such as a cellular automaton. However, in this framework, we can hypothesise that terminal conditions exist, and not just by running your Lisp machine with GC disabled
