Dear Mindaugas.

I PRESUME THIS IS your STARTING POINT: "if..."
if not, if we find that our world is more(?) than a cellular automaton - which is in my word-use 'reductionist' - then the world is NOT governed by some simple rules.
We don't set rules, we select models, count/identify in them the occurrences and deduct what happened most which then is called "law". And the world is not GOVERNED. it is a process of them all. Nothing can be excluded from the interefficiency, because that would lead to separate worlds - which may well be, but we do not know about them. So your 'origination point' is causally connected (your word) to the rest of the totality and its process. A 'next step' segmentually observed.
Initial state? I don't believe the narrative of the physical cosmology, because it has logical flaws even in human logic. I made another narrative, which may not be more 'true', but eliminates SOME flaws. You can make another one.
We "know" nothing about that 'origin', it was before the 'time' of Loebian machines (even before my time).
We can speculate, it is cheap.

Dear John,
I feel I understand your view and distinction of "origination point"
and "origination".
"Origination" is entailment of "origination point". "Origination
point" is part of our world ("the item to be originated"). Is that
correct?
Now, my opinion is that there is no "origination" of the "origination
point", because whatever it may be, it is connected to the item to be
originated through causality. What I mean is, if we were to find some
relatively simple rule generating our world, then we could actually
try to reduce it to some even simpler rule.
It is now thought of that some rules governing cellular automata are
irreducible, since there seem to be no simpler rule to produce the
patterns they some cellular automata produce, however, suppose that
our world is governed by some relatively simple rule. In this case,
there is a rule to reduce most if not all of the cellular automata
rules, since it actually produces all the cellular automata that we
know :-).with the initial state that we do not know, we could try to
find the world produced by an even simpler rule, that eventually
produces the initial state of our world.
