> dhw:Yes indeed, there is so much that is unexplained ... as Darwin himself readily acknowledged ... and there is no evidence that it is or that it is not guided and directed, but that has nothing to do with Darwin's theories. And yes indeed, we are trying to recover history from millions of years ago, and Darwin never said we weren't. I still see no reason why Darwin and we ourselves should discard the theories of common descent, natural selection and evolution because of genetics.-I'm not asking that we remove ourselves from a recognition of evolution by common descent mediated by natural selection. Darwin is interpreted as permitting the idea that he has explained it as occurring totally by a chance mechanism, when the enormous layer upon layer of complexity of the genome belies that idea. There is intellect and planning behind all of it.
