<< Bertvan:
That such facts support common ancestry is certainly true. It might also
support other scenarios, such as horizontal transfer, symbiosis. or the
possibility that similar DNA results in similar morphology, and the genome
itself has some unexplained ability to organize itself in similar,
meaningful, purposeful, designs and patterns. >>
WHY would similar morphology affect the aptterns of synapomorphic mutations
in areas of the genome that have NOTHING to do with morphology? e.g., the
beta globin gene cluster; intergenic regions; introns' etc... And on what do
you base the claim that "...the genome
itself has some unexplained ability to organize itself in similar,
meaningful, purposeful, designs and patterns."
Does it? How do you know this?
