Until it mutates.

If I have cell A, B, C and D, and I duplicate C, I have A, B, C, C, and D. I don't have a gain of information. C was there to begin with. What I mean by gain of information is somehow getting an E from somewhere. That is what is required for the evolutionary theory to work (molecules to man).
The second C will mutate differently from the first C. So you start with ABCD, go to ABCCD, and then A'B'C'C"D'.
