Thank you for your post that highlights the ad hominem problem in 'science' today.
Yes, the problem is calling what they are doing "science". It's shameful to smear real scientists that way by elevating these people like that by creating the impression of a false equivalency.

"DeNovo Scientific Journal"?
Never heard of it.
It's a scam.

If this was real science, it would have been able to survive peer review in a REAL journal, not a fraudulent website posing as one:
Publication
The problem is, it’s not in a typical peer-reviewed journal. It’s not even in a science journal that has any track record. She published in the “DeNovo Scientific Journal. Sounds okay at first …
… except that the domain was purchased anonymously 9 days ago for a period of one year. And this is the only paper that the journal has put out. And in fact, they admit that when other journals would not publish their results, they went out, bought a journal, renamed it, and published their paper.
That is not peer-review. This is like a case where your spouse won’t do something you want them to do so you go and build a robot spouse that you program yourself to do that something.
As I said, I felt sorry for her and I was willing to give Melba the benefit of the doubt. This, however, removes all pretense of an attempt at having people look at this work and judge it objectively and go back and fix mistakes that were pointed out.
She also apparently does not understand the concept of “open access” (meaning free) because it costs $30 to view the paper.

There are some denying the genetic evidence already.
What evidence?
The team, led by Dr. Melba S. Ketchum, DVM, of DNA Diagnostics in Nacogdoches, TX
Has this person let anyone else see her evidence for independent verification?

Lol, the journal of junk! For once peer review is exactly the problem!

HAHAHAHAH! How much you want to bet Melba Ketchum is the same person who registered both DeNovo Scientific Journal and DNA Diagnostics? Both are brand new websites using the same registration info! She's charging $30 a pop for people to view her "work." SCAM.

But her data is "all cutting edge!" That science speak.

Remedial spelling may be of some assistance to you, evidently.
All irrelevant. I'll repeat the point that you all avoid.
There is genetic evidence claimed. Maybe it's nonsense. Maybe it isn't.
All the rest is pointless - and further illustrates the problem I brought up.
