It Isn't Junk DNA: God Just Commented Out a Lot of Crappy Code

Decent article about genetics, DNA, evolution and science.

Nowhere is God mentioned in this article. Misleading title.

It is highly possible that god doesn't even exist. It is then almost certain that he does not code every living organism's genetic make-up.

Very misleading title - in fact, the title has pretty much nothing to do with the article, besides the mention of DNA. Besides, junk DNA isn't junk, its just that we don't yet understand what it does.

Besides the HN submission title, the article itself was interesting to read.

Direct quote from sentence above the article, don't know why you can't see it.

Commented-out code isn't junk either - It's just not currently in use.
