A brief word about our group: Natural Genetic Engineering: Natural Genetic Engineering (NGE) is a process cited by James Shapiro (well-known molecular biologist) in order to account for major innovation and novelty in regard to Biological Evolution. Shapiro developed his work in peer-reviewed publications and then later outlined a more detailed paradigm in his book: Evolution: A View from the 21st Century. He also proposes NGE to account for several counterexamples in regard to the Central Dogma of Biology, a 1970s proposal in which the direction and flow of sequence information is only from DNA to DNA (DNA to RNA) to proteins -- and never the reverse. The molecular pioneer (and bacterial expert) draws conclusions from work as diverse as the adaptivity of the mammalian immune system, ciliate macronuclei and epigenetics. Shapiros NGE also gained a measure of notoriety after being championed by proponents of Intelligent Design. Our forum supports a generalized ID paradigm -- but my personal reference to ID specifically involves Cell Cognition and NGE. Administration will not be deleting any serious Religious or Philosophical OPs (threads). By serious, I mean a coherent discussion involving fairly intelligent participants. However, the main goal of this forum is to promote scientific research associated with Intelligent Design.
