@BenKissling

I see. So had he done so, do you hypothesize that would make a difference of 50+ orders of magnitude?

@BenKissling, before I answer this rather different question, can we agree that the claim that Axe was measuring the frequency in sequence space of folds and not activity is incorrect?

Thanks.

No, but I could accept it for purposes of discussion if you also were willing to accept your original critique of Axe’s paper is equally flawed.

Seriously? @BenKissling, you are putting words in Axe’s mouth, claims that a plain reading of his 2004 paper will show to be false, and you try to defend your assertions?

Also, no one - not Axe, not @Agauger, not @bjmiller, not any other ID proponent - has ever really addressed my criticisms of the ID take on Axe’s 2004 paper. Why I should accept the false claim that my critique is flawed escapes me. Maybe you can help me understand why you ask me to accept false assertions.
