ERV Challenge - A Response to Dr. Hunter

A blogger named Bitbutter asked Cornelius Hunter if there were examples of ERVs that did not fit the evolutionary pattern. Dr. Hunter wrote, through Casey Luskin, that there were and that he has written about them in his book Science's Blind Spot. Here is Bitbutter's response:
