Have any of you ever seen an IDiot arguing that there's NO junk DNA in a slug, or a maggot, or a petunia, or a fungus? How about a chimp?

I seriously doubt that they would be offended at the suggestion, or even absolute proof, of there being "junk" DNA in 'lower life forms'. It's all about humans, well, the special-ness of 'faithful', 'chosen' humans that is.

I remember DaveScot suggesting that junk DNA might be involved with creating consciousness. I used mildew as my counter-example. :-)

Why didn't you use UD as your counter-example?
