Rather than reading the freely available original  article on RNA editing in squids Denyse as usual just copied snippets from a bad summary. But of course she didn't stop at getting it all wrong but makes completely unjustified predictions:

Well, if an extremely complex nervous system, plus the need to adapt, explains this, we should expect to see primates doing it too. Stay tuned.

But there is always an IDiot that is even more stupid:

The article specifically said the experiment looked at messenger RNA (mRNA). The edited mRNA takes information from DNA to the ribosome. This is how we know which gene sequences are expressed. There can be no RNA editing unless the source DNA has been modified, i.e., mutated. And we’re not talking about random mutations either.

And one more thing, if it were just RNA and not DNA editing, the changes could not be inherited by offsprings, could they? But we know the changes are inheritable. Remember Darwin’s finches and their little beaks?

Don’t you just love epigenetics? It makes Darwinian evolution (RM+NS) not just unnecessary, but downright stupid. Why is Darwinism still being taught in our schools? It’s scandalous.

ahahaha…AHAHAHA…ahahaha…

But it even got better after Piotr corrected him:

Congratulations if you’ve had a look at the article. But if you have, it can’t have escaped your noctice that it says nothing about the origin of the RNA “recoding” mechanism. Of course it is ultimately determined by the squid’s DNA sequence and inherited from generation to generation; temperature changes are needed to trigger its operation. But the editing itself does not affect DNA in any manner.
You don’t know that. The fact that the article does not mention the origin of the editing is telling. It tells us that the authors are hiding something that is inconvenient to their religious materialist paradigm. mRNA is known to transcribe specific sequences from DNA. DNA cannot edit mRNA sequences. It’s just a gene. About all it can do is copy itself. Something else must be changing the genes resulting in different mRNA transcriptions. The whole concept of “RNA editing” is highly suspect and almost certainly a lie. It’s a sure bet that, below the surface, it’s just DNA editing. Darwinists are such cowards. What a bunch of pussies.
