The gene exists in other mammals. It is defective in apes, at the same spot.

Explain the significance of this fact then without relying on "ID'r" probability statistics.

Cordially,

What kind of designer makes a number of different species with the same damaged gene, damaged at the same spot? Why is the gene there at all? ID can't explain it without resorting to saying that that's the way God wanted it. Evolution and common descent make it easily explainable. It's what you would expect with common descent. And that's just one gene. There are hundreds of similar examples.
