The pattern of genetic similarities is clear and obvious for every species that has been sequenced so far. They all fit into a nested hierarchy that demonstrates inheritance and common descent.
... until you get to the level of Phyla, at which point you realise that nested hierarchies exist only within Phyla. The different Phyla themselves don't collectively form a nest hierarchy, thus disproving the theory of UCD.
Oh, it will take far more than your sayso to disprove UCD.
You haven't shown any supporting evidence that genetic comparisons of phyla don't fit into a nested hierarchy.

Providing any such evidence would be pointless.
Sound reasoning in the light of no evidence.

it follows that medical science can make use of those genetic similarities, regardless of beliefs about their origins, right?
Luckily, medical science doesn't have to rely on beliefs because they have evidence of common descent.

Re: Be Forewarned
You turn into a 6 ft jackalope with a lust for York peppermint patties.
Wow, there must be a lot of genetic diversity in the Jackalopes. Ours up here are only 2 ft and they're addicted to Reese's Peanutbutter Cups and rhubarb leaves. Ain't biology wonderful?

Agree. I'm learning a lot in this thread.
That's why I still like coming here, I learn new things and see well reasoned, articulate arguments, supported by evidence.

Re: Evilutionists vs Creotards
My only beef with "scientists" is when they try and prove that Jesus never existed.
Can you point to a single scientist who worked on a project to "try and prove that Jesus never existed" or a single paper written by a scientist "trying to prove that Jesus never existed?" That's a lot different from pointing out that there is not a single scrap of evidence that Jesus ever existed.
Beyond that, I respect science.
Yeah, right.
