I know what you are thinking, “How can there be anomalies in DNA?” It is, essentially, ones and zeros made from 4 different nucleotides holding a bunch of sugar together. The sugars are Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine. To make it even less confusing, Adenine always attaches to Thymine and Cytosine always attaches to Guanine. It can’t be faked or misunderstood unless someone really doesn’t like the answers they get. Once that happens, the gloves are off and anything is considered ok. Those calling themselves scientists twist every bit of truth out of what they know to present...
