Thumbs up on your opinion.
To: Fractal Trader
Evolutionist cannot find the missing links in the fossil record so this represents a plausible escape mechanism; to wit, only one slip in the DNA reproduction and there you have it goo to zoo to you.

This is after they spent some good amount of time trying to find a working set of mutations that would get from the precursor of man/ape to both men and apes without running through dead-end or fatal genetic sequences.
See, it’s easy to say you have 96% the same parts. For a rough analogy, you could say that Microsoft Windows and Mac OS share almost all of the same base coding structures (they differ only in how they are combined), but if you tried to get from one to another by changing a few lines of code at a time, you wouldn’t get programs that worked with the intermediate steps.
So, since they couldn’t find workable mutations that would connect the species, they instead looked for something in the “non-working genes” . See, if all of your “changes” are in things that don’t matter, they don’t have to “work”. Just one day, by magic, these non-working genes become “working”, and “abra-cadabra”, random natural evolution is saved from it’s inconvenient truths.

Opposable thumbs up at that!

Or was it your genes? This will require further study.

That and the apes have an extra chromosome.
This article is poorly written.
