> *** I have just read the various posts from David, George and Matt. To George I would say that I have no problem understanding your opposition to the design theory if it's on the grounds that a "God in the traditional sense" runs contrary to common sense. I'm only surprised that you should swallow arguments as weak as the above. To Matt I would say you are quite right that complexity does not provide "unequivocal evidence" of design. If we had unequivocal evidence either way, there would be nothing to discuss. It's all a matter of what you think is or is not feasible. I prefer to leave my options open. David and George have made up their minds.-dhw certainly understands my view that the complexity of the genetic structure cannot be dismissed because it looks messy. Here is another article where messy pseudogenes have a definite function and have been conserved in evolution because they are vital to the system.-http://www.physorg.com/news196516390.html
