<title>Shapiro supports our view of natural selection</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&amp;quot;It is true that I disagree with the Neo-Darwinist theory that Natural Selection is the major creative force in evolution. I see the generation of novel genome structures as a more important source of evolutionary innovation. Traditionally, what I call natural genetic engineering has been called Variation in the evolution literature. To me Natural Selection operates post-Variation as a purifying force eliminating novelties that are not adaptively useful. The difference between my view and traditional Neo-Darwinism is a legitimate and typical scientific disagreement.&amp;quot;-&amp;#13;&amp;#10;http://www.huffingtonpost.com/james-a-shapiro/misquoting-science-in-the_b_4390713.html?utm_source=Alert-blogger&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=Email%2BNotifications</p>
