<If you're going to pursue a career in the biological sciences, you should probably be very careful where you say things like that.>

LOL... As I've said donzens of times in the past several hundered posts there are "neo-Lamarckians" and "Evo-Devo" types crawling all over biology departments all the over the world. Further most every evolutionary biologist is aware of the problems with "random mutation", whether they agree or not.
I have conversations all the time with Graduate level professors about this stuff... it's NOT a big deal. Believe me, if Behe wasn't raising eyebrows with his claim of refuting "Darwinism"- ie. if he would stick to 'random mutation', and properly pick out specific (random mutation) mechansims, no one would even pay attention to him. All sorts of people have the same ideas but they don't claim "Darwinsism" is the problem.

Better be ready for science to fully embrace the idea the the organism is involved in it's own evolution (pretty obvious really) and random mutation to fall by the wayside... AND SCIENTIST WILL BE THE ONES (are) showing the way AND "evolution" will simply morph from it's present form... no one is going to throw the idea away.
