Junk DNA goodbye!: A new function; enhancers (Introduction)

David's comment: The idea of junk DNA supporting Darwin's theory is essentially dead. With the absence of any tiny steps in the fossil evidence and faced with the huge gap evidence of speciation, a new theory must be found. How does one plan for the complex changes required in the biochemistry and phenotypic new forms? With a mental understanding of how to plan and coordinate all he new parts. Of course there is no proof, but an assumption of a powerful mental God is reasonable.-The absence of tiny steps has already been covered by the now far from new theory of punctuated equilibrium. Darwin's theories of common descent and natural selection do not preclude the existence of a powerful mental God. His theory that innovation was caused by random mutations does, in my view, require replacement. A divine 3.7-billion-year-old computer programme and divine dabbling have been offered by a dear friend of mine. I myself have offered cellular intelligence. Any other suggestions?
