No, it’s not. Artificial selection is sometimes effective, sometimes not; our ancestors didn’t have any valid models for how plant breeding works, that is evidenced in written records as far back as they go — total wackadoo mysticism all the way back. Trying to pretend that humans designed the genome 6000 years ago is the worst sort of agenda driven anti-science that there is.
Has it ever occurred to you that charlatans and wackdoodles inhabited academe and government then, just like they do now?
Absence of proof is not proof of absence. It seems to me, that the actual successful domestication and commercial cultivation of hundreds of plants and animal species is proof that whether recorded or not, some of those ancient farmers obviously did have a clue.
But lets just pretend all that happened as a result of spontaneous and unknown mechanisms of evolution and ignore the elephant in the living room, because that’s not mystical.
