==A curious necessity for YECers is that racial differences, microevolution, must occur at a rate more rapid than classic Darwinists assume. And that degradation of the genome (as in accumulation of “junk DNA) is rapidly occurring.

It’s only rapid if you assume random mutations. However, if our genome/epigenomes were designed by God to adapt to changing environmental circumstances, then rapid adaptation makes perfect sense.

Also, haven’t you heard, there is not such thing as “junk” DNA anymore. This darwinist prediction turned out to be dead wrong...just as creation scientists have long predicted.

But that would be beyond our reach to know, which is the whole problem. I'm not an anti-Creationist, I just don't know, and I think it's going to be a long time before we know.

Were here, life is extremely complex, possibly complex beyond human comprehension. This is what I know.

I just get aggravated when people say they "know" when in fact they don't know. This occurs on both sides of the back-and-forth.

As to "junk DNA", if IIRC, the argument is not that there is no junk DNA, but rather that there are significant portions of "junk DNA" that are not junk after all.

The Creos have their God of the Gaps.
The Evos have their Junk of the Gaps.
