DAVID: Comment: Note the bold. 'Junk DNA' is a point of view proposed and promoted by ardent Darwinists to protect the very weak theory now that DNA is becoming m ore understood. The new data base is a response to the previously improper view of DNA. Other than common descent the whole theory is dead and Tony thinks that doesn't exist.

As I keep saying, the gradual disappearance of the “junk” theory can be explained by “ardent Darwinists” as natural selection at work – only what is useful survives. For obvious reasons Junk DNA was never part of Darwin’s theory! At least you still believe in common descent, so perhaps you could explain to Tony why you think he’s wrong.
