You continue to miss the point entirely. It is not that aided processes cannot cannot accomplish some of the same things that unaided processes can. It is that only one process actually explains this specific phenomenon. You have certainly not proposed an alternative. Except of course the "dishonest magician" which we both know is not science.

That's incorrect. First of all, you argued, and the author of the article for this thread implied (by saying that ERV insertion point commonality "proved" Evolution) that an unaided process was the only explanation. And that's wrong.

An aided process can insert ERVs into the same place as can an unaided process.

Second, aided processes such as software self-modification, software viri modifying an OS, genetic lab work deliberately inserting ERVs into DNA, and cryptologists inserting the public half of a key into an encrypted data segment are *all* processes that yield the same insertion point result.

Which is to say, you're just as wrong, and clueless, as the author of the article. Neither of you have shown the slightest education about cryptography, and neither of you have demonstrated any knowledge of modern genetic lab work.

Now stubborness and obtuseness...that you've both got in spades. You clearly talk more than you listen, and think less than you espouse.

Go back and try again.
