I understand that your 'objection' is based on a complete misunderstanding of the topic. I explained it in detail ten months ago.
I can't imagine what else I could say since you have already ignored the answer and you still don't get it.

291Evolution is a Fact #1 - Protein Functional Redundancy
by cofty ini intend for this to be one of a series of bite-sized ops on the evidence for evolution.. introduction to dna genes are sequences of dna made up of words (codons) each of which are three letters (bases) long.
there are only four letters in the genetic alphabet (acg&t) each word or codon is the recipe for one amino acid.
there are 20 different amino acids in living organisms.

if it wasn’t for God how we would understand the mechanism of our own understanding
We understand literally millions of scientific facts that in the pre-enlightenment world were ascribed to supernatural causes.
We know what causes thunder - no god is required to account for how we know this.
We know many things about how the diversity of living things evolved from a common ancestor - no god required to account for how we know these things.
You don't get to squeeze Iron Age stories into science via epistemology.

I answered your point in some detail.
1 - You raise an 'objection' based on a misunderstanding of the topic
2 - I explain clearly and illustrate
3 - Tem months later you ignore my comments and repeat your 'objection' in even more confused terms
4 - Rinse and repeat

It took you 10 months to come up with that!
I literally have not got a clue what you mean and I suspect you don't either.
None of the extant Cytochrome sequences are sequentially ancestral to any others - Hooby
Nobody said otherwise
Do you even understand the significance of the information in the OP regarding protein functional redundancy? I answered your 'objection' here and yet you don't even acknowledge a single word of my reply.

The difference Freddo is that the authorities didn't believe or didn't know about the activities of Saville, Smith and Harris.
In the case of the multiple Muslim pedophile gangs they did know and were too afraid/politically correct to protect the victims.
Once again NOBODY is saying that all muslims are pedophiles - although their beloved prophet did set the example by repeatedly raping a nine year old - or that child abuse is a uniquely Muslim crime.
The problem is that many immigrants have come from deeply misogynistic cultures where unprotected girls - especially non-muslim girls - are viewed as fair game. A woman is the possession of her father and then her husband. An unattached girl such as those in Council care is viewed with no respect. Living in a free and liberal society like England provides them with an abundance of opportunities for predatory sex. If you doubt this explanation of Muslim culture check out the recent comments of Maajid Nawaz on LBC radio.
For decades the ridiculous, self-loathing doctrine of multiculturalism made it impossible to criticise other cultures without suffering professional ostracism, even when there were victims. It was easier to blame the teenage girls for being precocious or immoral.
In 2011 Cameron. Merkel and Sarkozy admitted that multiculturalism has failed. Too late, the damage is probably irreparable..

That's brilliant Dunedain! I love being able to connect local history to national events.
It has also been really interesting to discover the everyday life of ordinary people who lived here centuries ago. While metal detecting I find artefacts that were last seen and held by men and women who lived right here yards from my house hundreds of years ago. Always gives me a buzz.
A classic example of what I mean is lead 'spindle whorls'. These turn up all the time around here. They were attached to the end of stick and used by young women 'spinsters' to make woolen yarn medieval times before the invention of the spinning wheel. Every time I find one I think about who lost it maybe 6 or 7 hundred years ago. What was their home like? Their clothes and food and possessions?
Here is one example of 20 or more I have found within a few fields around my house (the white colour is lead oxide)
Edited to add - The diameter is about 40mm

A lot of old records are available online.
The estate was once part of an enclave belonging to the 'Prince Bishops' of Durham. Going back to medieval and post-medieval period there are a lot of archives held at Durham Cathedral and transcribed for viewing online.
Post-Conquest it belonged to a nobleman who had land on both sides of the Scottish border and who fell out with Edward I because of his allegiance to Robert Bruce. It then passed to the family of Robert de Manners whose ancestors came over with William the Conqueror. It stayed in that family for many generations. He was a classic English Knight who fought in many of the Scottish - English wars including Bannockburn and Stirling Bridge.
It was a village in the Middle Ages with a decent population but was repeatedly sacked by raiding Scots and fell into decline for a while. There was a tower here which was later replaced by a Tudor Mansion which is now no more than a couple of walls that are part of a walled garden and replaced by a Georgian House which still exists a short distance from the cottage I live in (I was creeping around it with a torch and big metal bar in the early hours last week when the alarm went off during the night - false alarm thankfully)
After the Reformation the family who owned the estate remained Roman Catholic and maintained a secret Chaplaincy. They fought for King Charles in the English Civil War and for Edward Stuart and Bonnie Prince Charlie in the 1715 and 1745 Jacobite rebellions. One son of the family was hanged at York for his rebellion. The woman for whom the current house was built was called Jacobina - her father was a Jacobite who took part in the Battle of Culloden. Always on the losing side of history!
I have permission to metal detect around the estate and have artefacts that link to all parts of the recorded history. I have been researching on and off for a few years - my account is about 50 pages so far full of colourful characters and incidents, I'm going to print it off and give copies to the current landowners as thanks for the permission to detect on the estate.
