This article emphasizes that in the light of the
latest scientific developments, supposedly "junk DNA" like
introns really do play a useful role in the life of organisms.
All these developments not only reveal new information about
non-coding DNA, but also clearly point to the very important fact
that the evolutionist concept of junk DNA was based on lack of
knowledge and "ignorance" as Evan Eichler admitted. 97
The Last Support for the Myth of Junk DNA
has Fallen: A Pseudogene has been Shown to be
Functional
Since the 1990s, important developments have all shown that
the concept of junk DNA was an evolutionist error based on lack of
knowledge. Non-coding DNA, like introns interrupting the sequence
of genes and repetitive DNA found as longer sequences, have been
shown to be functional. There was only one kind of non-coding DNA
left whose functionality was unknown: pseudogenes.
The prefix pseudo means "false, deceptive." Evolutionists gave
the name "pseudogene" to a DNA segment produced by a functional
gene that had apparently undergone a mutation and lost its function-
ality. Pseudogenes have a special significance for evolutionists, who
covertly acknowledge that mutations cannot bring about evolution
and have resorted to pseudogenes as a means to deceive people.
Countless experiments on living things have shown
that mutations always result in a loss of genetic data.
Just as a few random blows with a hammer will
not lead to improvements in the running of
