Darwinist ignorance, confusion & epigenetics (Introduction)

DAVID’s comment: The whole article reviews the history of the efforts to get epigenetics recognized. Neo-Darwinists fight tooth and nail against a change in approach to evolution. They want to study only external influences, not internal changes originated by organisms themselves.

dhw: Your comment is as significant as the article. Whether your God devised the whole system or not, it is becoming increasingly clear that evolution is a process in which organisms themselves originate change, and they do so at least partly (I would say mainly) through intelligent organismal responses to the challenges or opportunities presented by external influences. The external influences may well be governed by chance, but the responses are not.

The key is recognizing the importance of internal responses. Darwin only noted the external and competition, only a small part of the story
