" What do you mean? The main phenomena being reported is asserted completely definitively."



The title and the first paragraph say you are wrong.

"DNA ""could"" modify itself with no outside help, say biologists"

Spirals of DNA, once thought to be merely the passive memory banks that preserve life’s blueprints, ""may"" also actively modify themselves under certain conditions, according to Princeton University scientists.


Are "could and may" definitive words .

Listening to the crickets chirp while waiting for a citation for:

1) A post where I told someone to shut up
2) Any scientists who has ever said that everything there is to know about evolution is already known.

How am I wrong? Your quotes confirm exactly what I said: that the statements about design features of the DNA wrt this phenomena -- its role if any in the DNA, whether it is representative of similar phenomena, etc -- are couched (appropriately) in hypotheticals and uncertainties. By contrast the one statement regarding evolution -- that it would eliminate such a phenomena unless it provided some benefit -- is definitive.
