Can God be a useful "scientific" hypothesis? Yes

@scd

i think that Bill is probably talking about the time that require for few neutral mutations to get a new function. for instance: if we need at least 3 specific amino acids to get a new function

But do we? How do you know?

@scd

(in many cases we will probably need more than that).

Reference please.

@scd

we can calculate the time to get that new function. first, do we agree with that main assumption?

We do not.
