"However the more one-tries to go to the foundations of "computation", "knowledge", "information" the more scholastic it becomes. It resembles theological debates of XI-XIII century. If "object A" exists then we can prove such and such wonderful results... And we belive that "object A" exists.
Scientific value of this stuff may be questionable, but it is definitely a great fun!"
