> David But the bold is my main point. We emphasize differently. The atheist insists the presence of junk contradicts design. They want all the junk preserved, which is why Moran constantly denigrates ENCODE. Of course random mutations occur. Note when I use the word 'Darwinian' I'm not referring to the great man, but his pigmy followers.[/i]

> dhw: Fair comment, so long as you now agree that “a major Darwinian theory” has not gone “out the window”!-Random mutation is out the window also. What is left of Darwin is common descent and the competition implicit in natural selection as a passive recipient of variation. Darwin does not explain speciation.
