And this presents a big problem for neo-Darwinism."<BR/><BR/>You self-identify as a biologist, so you should be well qualified to read the actual scientific literature by and about evo-devo. If you do this, you will discover that Dembski and Wells aren't telling you the truth.<BR/><BR/>Whatever it is you mean by "control" (vs. "play a role"), I'm sure that the editors, associate editors, and hundreds of authors of <I>Development</I>, <I>Genes & Development</I>, <I>Genetics</I>, and dozens of other scientific journals and societies will laugh at the suggestion that "genes do not control development."<BR/><BR/>I suggest you find different sources, and reconsider linking the gospel to nonsense and duplicity.Stephen Mathesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05057004085073574659noreply@blogger.com
