Please everyone!!! we must stop making our pet "frog" look bad (as if he doesn't know anything). He/She might get mad and leave, and our board will lose it's PET FROG or is it our PET ROCK? Oh-Well "PET FROG-PET ROCK" equals same mentality.
DNAP is going to ROCK over the FROG. LOL---GLTA

Oh man have we missed you. So stubborn, so righteous, and yet so obviously wrong. (Every time. lol)

Gee, you don't even read well.

Apparently, reading does not translate into comprehension on your part. lol

I love this part, it's precious.

Pardon me, but that's not even close. I can see the part that tells us the proteins are created "from" coding DNA. And I see the part that tells us the junk DNA is "employed" by the proteins. I just don't see the part that says the junk DNA is involved in coding.

Do you suppose the 'junk DNA' have to join a union to be 'employed' by the proteins? Do they get health care?

DNA (junk or otherwise) is merely a long sequence of combinations of four (count 'em 1, 2, 3, 4) nucleotides. That's it, long strings of nucleotides. Every one identical to thousands of others just like it in the string. The only significance any nucleotide can have, is it's position in the sequence and the information that can be extracted from the sequence due to it's presence.

In other words (shall I say this slowly so you can try to understand it?)....IT IS A CODE!!!!!.

Tell us, just how do you imagine that proteins employ a line of code?

Do you think they snatch it out of the sequence and get it to mow the lawn? Perhaps they pay it to babysit their little baby proteins. Perhaps you could get one to do your thinking for you? lol

I just don't see the part that says the junk DNA is involved in coding.

Of course you don't. Sometimes when grown-ups write things to other grown-ups, they assume their audience can keep up, without having to spoon feed them every morsel.

Here is the part you seem to be missing in a nutshell;

DNA is a code. Some parts are active, some parts aren't. Some parts have always been known to be active, some parts were once assumed to be inactive, but have recently been shown to be otherwise.

(So far so good?)

The only activity in which a DNA segment(code) can participate and pass along it's information is by being coded.

Do you get it?

(The cows get it by now. lol)
