Did you know that the DNA of mice and chickens is actually closer to the human DNA than apes and chimps?
Did you know that it's actually not, and that creationist websites regularly invent falsehoods and palm them off as truth?
They are so blind-sighted that they can't see that the reason that the DNA of animals and humans is similar is because in order to survive on this planet, animals and humans have to share these things:
The similarities we compare in the genome are similarities that appear in non-functional sequences; as a result, an explanation of concordinance from morphological similarity is eliminated.
But evolutionists say; "Duh, why do animals and humans have similar DNA. Dat must mean dat animals turned into humans, uh-huh, uh-huh." LOL
Evolutionists are actually quite a bit smarter than you are. So much so that not only did they anticipate your "explanation", they were able to eliminate it by careful selection of exactly what kinds of sequences we wind up comparing.
Common function would certainly explain some similarities in functional genetic sequences, and evolutionists are just as aware of this as you are.
As a result, the regions where we compare similarities are in non-functioning sequences, and the only explanation for those similarities is common ancestry, which we observe universally to varying degree among all living things.
So evolutionists need to get out of their labs and observe what animals and humans breed in reality so they won't jump to erroneous and impossibly bizarre conclusions.
In fact, many evolutionists are animal and plant breeders; additionally, many of them have their own children and are thus intimately acquainted with human reproduction.
Yet, they find that evolution and not creation is the most parsimonious explanation of the history and diversity of life on Earth, at the same time that many of them are Christians.
You might ponder why that is so rather than assuming that scientists who have devoted their lives to the study of living things somehow along the way never actually encountered one. The level of ignorance you assume among biologists is simply untenable. Your ignorance, on the other hand, is amply demonstrated every time you post. Don't you think it's about time you stopped saying stuff that's so fucking stupid and actually educate yourself about the science?
Or are you convinced that all science, even that done by Christians (which is probably most of it) constitutes an atheist conspiracy?

Sorry, but since even CHILDREN know that animals don't turn into humans, then evolutionists don't even know as much as children know!!
Yes, you're completely right. Despite the fact that it takes more than 8 years of intense study and research to achieve a doctorate in biology, the nation's top research biologists don't know the first thing about animals - at the same time that they're using their research on plants and animals to grow the very food you eat and to develop the drugs that keep millions of Americans alive.
Sure, they're dumber than children.
Refpunk, what the fuck is wrong with you? Do you think about these things before you say them?
