To all the doubters of the existence of scientific evidence for common descent…Why would the world be created in such a way that humans and chimpanzees have 98% the same DNA and look and act so similar, and we can attribute each of the differences in appearance and features to certain portions of that DNA?
The head of the human genome project, I forget his name at the moment, is a evangelical Christian who believes the world is under 10,000 years old, says that even without the fossil record, the sequencing of DNA (both nuclear and mitochondrial) is enough alone to prove common descent.
If you don’t believe in evolution, fine. But don’t say that there isn’t enough SCIENTIFIC evidence to back it up.
