  1. Lies. The best way to disprove this is the fairy tale. Why is it a fairy tale if a women kisses a frog and it turns into a prince? Because its impossible. Yet scientist think its not a fairy tale if that frog over millions of years turns into a man. Think about it if you copy tons of pictures of a frog will you ever get something else? Do you really think that over billions of years a bacteria could turn into a human?


  2. yes it's difficult to believe - but look at a chimps hands or his ears and look in his eyes .

  3. I am certain you can find such a test in some of the thumper "schools".

    Of course, first you will have to explain to them what the h**l DNA is.

    Then show them a laboratory, explain some of the basic equipment, show them how to conduct a test then find some pseudo-scientist to write the bogus proof.

    Should be a piece of cake at, say, Bob Jones "University"!

  4. No. You will not get any better answers over here than you got in biology. Face the truth; humans ARE apes!!!

  5. Sorry. This DNA chart shows how close we are to the apes:

    http://www.pnas.org/cgi/content/full/100...

    Another site gave these differences:

    Human - Chimpanzee      1.7%

    Human - Gorilla                  2.0%

    Human - Orangutan           4.0%

    You can pick your friends but you can't pick you relatives.

  6. You seem very much like those who are desperate to prove their religious beliefs are true, by grabbing onto any supossed "miracle" which happens. There can be no such evidence, because all the evidence substantiates that humans, chimpanzees, and gorillas descend from a common ancestor. Even the Roman Catholic church has accepted evolution. I hope you do, soon, as well, but I'm not holding my breath. Have you ever considered that god may be directing the process of evolution? There can be no evidence, either way.

  7. Thre is no test that proves we are not. However, the relatednessof animal species is based on structure (how they are built) function and phylum. More recently it is based on the percentage of similar DNA. The more similar the DNA the closer the genetic ties. The same goes for twins. The earlier they split into two separate twins the more dissimilar they are. Twins that split the latest (those that share the same placenta or even siamese twins that do not split all the way) are most genetically (and oddly behaviorally) similar.

    The same can be applied to species.. the lover ago we split off and becaseme a separate species, the more variation in the genetics. That is why we share more of our DNA with our higher primate cousins (chimps, gorrillas, oragutangs) than we do with our lower primate cousins (monkeys lemurs). It is assumed that the less we share (or the more variation a primate has) the further back in history interbreeding stopped and the more differerent (differnetiated)  the two species are.

    That is why it is impossible to find such a DNA test (one that would prove we are NOT related to other primates) because our DNA itself holds the code that says we are the same in all but 2% of the proteins we produce. Structure and function make things pretty durn obvious as well.

    I mean we have similar DNA characteristics to mayflies, rats and pigs) hence why animal research can be extrapolated (reasoned outward) to include humans. We do share the same DNA as these creatures, just a MUCH lower percentage than with our primate relatives.

  8. Of course there was a genetic test, and it proved that chimps ARE very closely related to humans.

  9. No.

    Humans, gorillas, and chimps (among other species) are ALL apes.

  10. Who needs a dna test when all you have to do is look at yourself and then look at an ape. Just kidding.

    But I'll attach a website, to prove it.

    I say this. I do not believe in evolution at all.

    I do believe God created people and those first people were placed in the Garden of Eden, which is located in what is known today as Ethiopia. I do believe God used the same building blocks for all living creatures: like dolphins, frogs, apes, cats, dogs, birds, insects, etc. But these building blocks are called DNA. Everything on the planet is made out of DNA, so it should come as no surprise that their are DNA similarities between apes and humans. Human beings are made out of DNA too.

  11. yes. Except that the tests proved that on a genetic level humans and chimps differentiate by about 2%. so depending on how you look at it, chimps are almost human, or you're almost a chimp. which leads to the theological implications....if we are created in gods image, does that mean that god is a few genes away from brachiating through the trees?

  12. There are countless that prove they are.  Some like sequencing the hypervariable region of the mitochondria prove in no uncertain terms that we share common ancestors with apes.  It is confirmed but not so incontrovertibly by tests on other genes.
