“It’s a joining process - not just a cutting process like the straw you tried to splice into the discussion:”

You still do not understand the chemistry. A base is added.

Splicing film does not add a frame.

Splicing rope, in your example, loses rope. Splicing wood, your other example, does not add more wood.

In this reaction more RNA is added.

Also you do not understand this is an excision event.

The analogy to film is good.

A film may have some frames cut out. Two cuts are made, then the intervening film frames are removed and the two ends are spliced together.

The film cut out does not gain and added frame. No where in the process is there an added frame.

The RNA example in tetrahymena excision of an intron in a ribosomal RNA transcript is very analogous to the film example above except that there is a base added to the excised piece.

That would be like adding a frame to a movie every time it was spliced.

If this same dynamic existed in film, and one kept splicing a one hour movie, a longer movie witch more frames would be created just by splicing.

One could create a whole new movie that way.

I understand the chemistry enough to understand that you're waving semantic straw.

Noun 1.gene-splicing - the technology of preparing recombinant DNA in vitro by cutting up DNA molecules and splicing together fragments from more than one organism

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/gene-splicing


"Splicing together"

In your dramatic presention - a base is spliced into a polymer.

And you've still iFAILED to demonstrate the sustained iCOMPLETE self-replication required to support the process of evolutionary abiogenesis.

LOL.

Evidently you’ve never seen all the frames of Fight Club.
