Beyond doubt? Hardly. There may be yet be a beneficial effect of all those transposable elements/repeats (LINEs, SINEs etc.) which make up over 50% of the human genome, but Gore's assertion that they play a direct role in gene transcription is highly unlikely.
...
The genome is chock full of similar kinds of (what can only be referred to as) "mistakes" which lead to only two interpretations....either organisms evolve, or a creator purposely designed patterns in the genome for what would appear to be evidence for evolution.
You are consistent. You allow as you are the sole possessor of certainty.

Care to propose a function for all of these pseudogenes scattered throughout the genome (mutated beyond repair in most instances)? You would make quite a splash in the field!
