DAVID: Dawkins big mouth matched with a thinking Shapiro:-http://www.huffingtonpost.com/james-a-shapiro/evolution-debate_b_1425133.html-Thank you, David. What a great article! I couldn't help leaping out of my chair at the following quote:
 
4. Experimental research has discovered numerous cell-mediated processes of genome restructuring in all realms of life. These cellular natural genetic engineering capabilities replace accidental events as the real sources of heritable genome change. Since natural genetic engineering is subject to cell regulatory circuits and can be targeted within the genome, random copying errors can no longer be considered a basic feature of evolutionary change.
 
Could this possibly be the professional equivalent of my layman's "intelligent cell"?
