I just can't resist another juicy evolution story. Apparently not all the scientists at Princeton are drinking the "everything there is to know about evolution is already known" Kool-Aid.

We dont really know yet why or how it happens, but it makes us wonder what else DNA might be doing without our knowledge.
Maybe an Intelligent Designer???

Flexibility could help with DNA packaging, which happens any time you need to stuff DNA into a tight place,Why don't they just use an Acme DNA Stuffer?

What an irresponsible thing to say. Your B.S. theory on how science works and how scientists work is just plain wrong. Science is properly set up so that no scientific theory is absolute unlike your absolute belief that Genesis is absolutely correct no matter what.

This fascinating and unanticipated new property of DNA has the potential to cause substantial damage to our cells...."Sounds like a pessimistic democrat..The glass is half empty.
I prefer to be optimistic that this may be the key to the evolution of species whether under the direction and control of a higher being, or not....as you prefer to believe.

I was unaware that any leading scientists have made such a claim. Do you have a reference?

Great post. Thank you. Let the debate begin again.

But the team found that if a stem-loop forms from a particular sequence of DNA, one of the genetic teeth will fall spontaneously from that side of the zipper, and the weakened strand will eventually break apart in that spot unless it is repaired by enzymes in the cell. Fresco said this sort of activity seems akin to self-mutilation at first glance. Reminds me of how often the crevo threads themselves "unwind" over time ;-)

To a scientist, this kind of self-inflicted genetic damage appears unhealthy, the sort of thing that would cause undesirable mutations and could kill off the organism, Fresco said. Cells have evolved a complex DNA repair system to constantly repair such damage. But evolution has not, as wed expect, put a stop to it. So we theorize it must be happening for some good reason that we have yet to uncover. This absolutely shows that the genetic mutation theory put forth by evolutionists is a fallacy. Cells have a complex DNA repair system. In other words, even if DNA mutates, it soon self corrects. That is the normal state of affairs. Mutation is abnormal. Yet evolutionists would have us believe that an unnormal, unnatural, impossible mutations occur virtually all the time in every single species. Right.

How did DNA modify itself as reproduction
had to be established initially?
That's, ugh... from the start.

I'm sold by all this "evidence".
DNA "could" modify itself with no outside help, say biologists
"may" also actively modify themselves
"some" single strands of DNA are "capable" of

has the potential to
We can only speculate
"If" we have indeed found one way that DNA can change itself spontaneously,

Can they rule out DNA being hit (altered) by sub-atomic particles?
