Until 2003, no function had been found for any pseudogene. However, like other classes of non-coding DNA, a regulatory function has been found for at least one mammalian pseudogene.1 This finding destroys the evolutionary argument that these genes are merely evolutionary mistakes. The idea that God would not create pseudogenes or include them in a species template that contained a pseudogene makes a theological conclusion about the nature of God.
