Natural Science 301 Guidelines

This is an open forum area for all members for discussions on all issues of science and origins. This area will and does get volatile at times, but we ask that it be kept to a dull roar, and moderators will intervene to keep the peace if necessary. This means obvious trolling and flaming that becomes a problem will be dealt with, and you might find yourself in the doghouse.

As usual, Tweb rules apply. If you haven't read them now would be a good time.

    Well, as far as the vitamin C pseudogene is concerned, guinea pigs also have this! I'm not sure how whales smelling is evidence for common descent. And as far as teeth are concerned, maybe chickens etc. once had teeth.

    "This leads to the conclusion that during evolutionary history, enamel-covered teeth must have been lost in certain lineages."

    Rather vague, that...

      You obviously do not understand the reference. Rather vague that. Your glaring lack of knowledge in the basic genetics of pseudogenes in evolution only is exceeded by your religious agenda refusing to accept the competent corrections from The Lurch and Rogue06 to correct your misinformation.

        Even as i describe it, it would be extraordinarily useful to biologists; i agree with ENCODE's claim in this case.

        I was commenting on your judgement (not ENCODE's) that it would not seem valuable. You don't recognize its value because you don't understand enough biology to do so.
