How do you tell the difference between new genetic material and existing genetic material being modified and working together with other genes in new found ways? Especially in organisms that are extinct.

Re: The broader question

Creationists tend to like to argue that stupid point. I agree it doesn't matter. New information and traits are new information and traits regardless if they came from new genes or old genes working together in new ways.

Come again? Chromosome mixing occurs in sperm cells. That leads to new traits. How is that intelligently conceived?

Furthermore, how is a viral vector intelligently conceived?
