Re: Intelligent Design...

@NeSCio

You're making a logical mistake here (again): basically you are saying that because prions are less well understood we should discard them and focus on things we do understand? But of course then it will all support your theory/arguments. If you neglect that which goes against your theory, all that you are left with is 'proof' for your theory (evolution, DNA as basis of life etc etc). I'd rather say that the fact that we cannot explain or understand prions based on our theory of evolution/DNA, proofs that this theory is flawed or at least incomplete ;) and therefore, this shows that there is more to it than we can currently theorize. Thus, we should not take the evolution theory to be true/absolute.

no it was NOT this way i intended my argument...

i'm not saying prions are not important, i'm only saying they are not relevant to anaylisis of relations within DNA based life, and that's why i exclude from this approach the RNA based viruses, and also other DNA viruses, to concentrate only on all life forms with complete cells...and frankly the make up a huge biomass!
and also human and monkeys are far far different from this prions, viruses life forms....

furthermore most life is based on DNA, how could a little tiny prion change the history of DNA based life?
sure it creates newer opportunities to ponder the ultimate origins of life, before DNA, but how can prions explain why human have fish genes, or a huge closeness to apes, culturally speaking?

so far no one has explained why human have branchia and tail genes that express only in maternal womb ,

please do provide a better theory linking all existing proofs in a more satisfactory way, in absence thereof, evolution is the least wrong explanation
