Journal Watch: How Could They Print/Not Print That?

I confess I'm puzzled.In the full quote I first posted, Axe posits an imaginary world with abiotic amino acids; then he claims that our world, in contrast, is without abiotic amino acids.If you read that quote differently, could you explain further? Edited by Omnivorous, : fixed msg link

I am not seeing in your quote, where he uses "without" with respect to amino acids. I clicked your link and it doesn't take me anywhere, though I assume you were probably referring to Message 10.In any case, I think we are getting sidetracked. Surely the main problem with his paper is in his dubious arguments for irreducible complexity in the proteins, rather than in what he says about the origin of amino acids.

Thanks--I fixed the link.And, yes, I agree with you about the main problem with his paper.
