The term "supernatural" has no real meaning except to describe what we don't understand. Just like the term "junk" DNA. Many sciientists openly believe in god and to suggest they have no place in this forum is discriminatory at best. Your dismissal of what you don't understand is, in fact, anti-science. Also, I agree, suggesting the homosexuality is pathological is like suggesting being a genius (which is in the eye of the beholder) is pathological.

Where did I dismiss something that I don't understand?
I asked you for evidence of "God". I didn't dismiss it and say I don't understand.

Of course the word supernatural has a meaning. The definition of supernatural is: (of a manifestation or event) attributed to some force beyond scientific understanding or the laws of nature. Seeing as there is zero scientific evidence for "God", and indeed religion puts "God" beyond the laws of nature, it is therefore supernatural. Junk DNA is by no means "supernatural". We can study it and it is governed by genetic processes. So stop taking offence and keep it scientific.

UTR sequence and de novo mutations

I have started to check my entire exomes for de novo mutations. I have already realised that there are many de novo mutations in UTR-regions! Is this normal? Hasn't that an effect on how the mRNA gets translated?


P.S, I do not believe in God!
