This adds credibility to Behe's mathematical model which says outside influence was needed.

Behe's model has zero credibility to a statistician. To calculate the odds of an event, you need a numerically specified state-space, and a numerically specified selection criteria within that state-space. Neither Behe, nor anyone else, has any idea whatsoever what the state-space and selection criteria actually were that produced life.

Oh, please.

In short, there's a million threads and a gazillion posts on FR on this subject. Both sides.

Go read them again. And again. And again.

Same old arguments.

It would be nice if someone said something different, wouldn't it? :>)

And to be a believer in Evolution, none of these things are required.
