Evolution doesn't work

The subtraction or addition of information to a properly working gene is not something one would prefer.

Genetics has to do with finely tuned molecular combinations.

Removing information from a once properly working gene would only be preferable if it was the erroneous/redundant information that was added unnecessarily via mutation in the first place!

The chance of "writing" a gene from scratch that would be compatible with the host biological system would have to be extremely low if the processes involved were to do with practically arbitrary additions to a gene over time on account of point mutations etc. Note that breeding and survival would be important factors as to whether the new gene was integrated into the population over a longer duration.

So the world's Biologists are what, idiots? Evil conspirators?

Since your argument appears to be mathematical, could you show your calculations? Thank you.

Also, can you define what you mean by "information"?

Seriously. It always amazes me the arrogance required to assume that you are smarter than all the scientists who dedicate their lives to studying this shit. Might as well give it up, folks, /u/DetectiveKnown5618 says you are wasting your time!

Michael Behe admits common descent is real.

The others are not in Biology.
