" know it will be accepted hook line and sinker around here by committed evolutionists, but I dont' find it convincing. I believe this is a human foible. It recurs over and over in these postings. "

right on..the old GIGO..put it 450 million yrs ago (like they could deduce receptor binding sites for animals living 450 million yrs ago with no tissue/proteins/dna/mrna/hormones on and on to test!!!!
this is brazen, they just assume it was like this because hey this is the receptor we got today..what crap science is reported as fact today.

In this case, I agree with you.
Many molecules interact with different receptor sites.
That's why a drug which is used for one medical condition
also causes many side effects. A billion different
parts (or what we say, moieties,) of a molecule
could look like something else to a receptor. Finding
some theoretical molecules interacting with a theoretical
receptor is not very specific...for some reason, people
seem to forget that molecules and simple chemicals are
in equilibrium with the different conformations that
they can achieve, so if they're bent one way, they may
look like a different molecule (or be able to bind with
a receptor that it usually doesn't at a high rate)
I think some people think that molecules are little
balls hooked up at certain areas, and never break up,
or never change their conformation, or neither interact
with other items in their very near environment..
The 3-D animations they show usually show much less of the congestion and possible interactions going
on in that tiny space...
