I do have some background in molecular biology, a requirement for my current position, though not to the extent that most others have, and I am convinced that I could spend my entire life attempting to understand DNA's inner workings completely.
Exactly! Even people who work in the field of microbiology (if honest) will admit that 98% percent of DNA's function is still unknown. Just last month an article was published stating that at least one purpose was found for the so called "junk DNA," that everyone was trying to say was evidence that DNA could not be designed. I am sure after further study they will eventually find a purpose for the rest of it.
Kind of remind me of how back in the day they had this big long list of vestigial organs supposedly left over from our evolutionary past. The problem is as science and understanding progressed the list got shorter and shorter. What do ya know...things like the thyroid, tonsils and appendix turns out did have a purpose.

Re: more misrepresentation
"Junk DNA" and Vestigial Organs were NOT used as evidence against design except as a strawman on the Creationist sites, but they lie for a living.
I need my boots on to wade through all this. I have been involved with this debate for many years now and I promise you I could go out and buy a new car if I had a nickle for every time I have had an evolutionary atheist use one of those arguments on me.
Regarding topic, I actually have posted evidence. That of course is the apc observed in all living DNA. All attempts to refute this evidence, I have rebutted so far.
