DNA denies evolution,…

Now do a search on ‘Darwin gemmules’ and see what he speculated about what we now know as DNA. He was not a scientist mind you, so cut him some slack.

Was DNA what he predicted or was DNA something that was used to try to fit a preconceived notion? Does DNA fit better into a design scenario or a ‘no design necessary scenario’ as Darwin envisioned?
We will probably see two different things, but I hope you understand the general scientific philosophical flaw that I am suggesting.

Who cares what Darwin thought of DNA? It wasn't even discovered until the mid 20th century. Hell, there was oodles of speculation and experimentation between Darwin and the discovery of DNA to work out the mechanics of heredity.
