I am quite aware that many legitimate scientists were aware that there was more going on in the DNA than genes, I have said so a few times. However, evolutionist phonies have denied - and continue to deny that non-coding DNA is useful:
Most of your DNA is "junk". We call it that because the DNA sequence inside a "junk" region is never used to form a protein. The junk isn't after a Start codon, or else is right after a Stop codon, so the gene expression mechanisms simply never look at the junk. They skip over it. There is also "junk" which is inside a gene, but which is ignored when the gene is used. The details are complicated, but if you are interested, see Section Two of this Talk.Origins FAQ.
From: Junk DNA
Note the sources - the phoney Lyndsay to which Vade constantly refers to, using the just as phoney TalkOrigins as a source! This is still up on the web, they shamelessly continue the lie after it has been disproven.
Here is a link you provided with regards to junk DNA last week. Note in the middle of this report:
What the scientist believes the evidence he discovered means is irrelevant. The evidence speaks for itself. Also note that it is a reporter saying those words, the reporters on most of these mainstream magazines call everything evolution. As I showed, the evidence supports intelligent design, what others think or say is irrelevant. When Galileo was arguing that the earth went around the sun, the geocentrists had the same evidence as he and argued strongly against it due to their ingrained prejudices. The evidence belongs to the world, not to he who discovers it.
Gore you are aware that all of these “legitimate” scientists all are evolutionists right?
Besides some (not ALL) of that DNA really is “junk” – errors that happened to get trapped in our DNA. Did you read my discussion with Andrew where I pointed out that perhaps 10,000 processed pseudogenes exist in the human genome?
What the scientist believes the evidence he discovered means is irrelevant. The evidence speaks for itself.
Listen to yourself Gore! I am gonna go out on a limb here and say the Chairman of the Department of Genetics at U. Penn is perhaps just a little bit more qualified to interpret the data on junk DNA than you are. You are a piece of work! (no creationist pun intended ;-) )
When Galileo was arguing that the earth went around the sun…
I find it more than a little ironic that you should use this example. The religious fundamentalists of his time bent over backwards to exclude scientific data which didn’t agree with their beliefs..…much like what modern day creationists are doing.
