Thus on an evolutionary view we expect a lot of useless DNA."
Can't be a lot more self explanatory than that.
As to your comment on mutations, what am I supposed to answer? You used terms that clearly indicated an intelligent mind acting on natural selection and I called you out on it.

Why then do we find useless portions of DNA? Did god put them there to fool us? The linked article stated 10% of the junk DNA was found to have a purpose. What about the other 90%? Why is it there? I know why but do you?

'You used terms that clearly indicated an intelligent mind acting on natural selection and I called you out on it."

You didnt call shit out. Answer the question. Here it is again for you:

"Mutation bad...animal die. Mutation good...animal survive better. How does that process require a mind to govern it?"

So tell me...what mind governs that process? I want evidence to support your answer not a dismissal or dodge.
