I'm sorry, but one cannot draw such conclusions; it would be akin to saying that, if telephones exist, it disproves email.

If the claim were made that communication must have been by email because telephones don't exist or are extremely rare the finding that there actually are a lot of telephones would negate your idea.

And, I was drawing no conclusions. In fact the opposite. I was stating that the conclusions drawn were based on a lack of information. Just like thinking there aren't any telephones when there are in fact plenty.

To reiterate. Genomic science is fascinating and is finding a lot of unexpected things and will continue to do so. Previous pat simplistic arguments (as set forth for example in the tracts at t.o.) are not relevant. And, this has nothing to do with evolution being true or false.

LOL. Lack of information?

How many examples of shared ERVs and pseudogenes would you like to see before you are reasonably convinced of common descent?

Nothing out of latest comparative genomics has cast any doubt on the previous studies whatsoever.

I think you *finally* see this, however you are still going to play dumb for the cause (whatever the hell that might be).
