Well, for anyone following this gene story over the last 25 or so years, it had to be obvious that if the coding for the structural proteins were so close, there had to be differences elsewhere in the genes to account for the physical differences between apes and humans.
Oh...and as for the caption under the picture? The answer is VERY different...

I call it the nuts and bolts of creation....kinda like putting a car together. You want a Lincoln or a Chevy...you're still going to have nuts and bolts.
The idea that nuts and bolts evolve doesn't work.
To: Sacajaweau
You'll not only have nuts and bolts they will be made in pretty much the same design and size, as will the engine, body, chassis and a wide variety of other elements.
Not only that every variety of conveyance in the universe will have essentially the same parts ~ top, bottom, front, back, left, right, up, down, electrons ~ all the features of "charm" ~ it's memes all the way down ~ not turtles at all.
So, what's the independent factor in all this? Well, that'd be the empty spaces and how they are defined by "stuff".

Great analogy...mind if I use it on occasion? I will give the credit to a native American woman.

Evolutionists and other animal idol groups point to the vast intelligence of some species, like chimps and dolphins.
Should be any time now, and these species will start building their own towns, churches, universities, etc. Just waiting...

Although humans and chimpanzees have accumulated significant differences in a number of phenotypic traits since diverging from a common ancestor about six to eight million years ago... Why did humans evolve, but chimpanzees did not? I thought the "Theory of Evolution" says that everything evolves. How come sharks haven't evolved, or the coelacanth?

Why did humans evolve, but chimpanzees did not?Did you read the sentence? "since diverging from a common ancestor about six to eight million years ago"
Both chimps and humans have evolved. They just evolved in different directions. The chimp of today probably has no more in common with our common ancestor than we do. Evolution says a species will become better suited to its environment, not that it will necessarily evolve in a direction we perceive as "higher."
Sharks and other species may evolve little because they are supremely well-suited to an environment that has changed little in a very long time.
To: Rennes Templar
Vast intelligence??? They experiment...train them...They can only do what nature intended and what's wrong with that??
Call me when an ape publishes a thesis on "Man".

I’m waiting for the study to show the differences between Homo sapiens and OWSers.

I well-remember back in the '80s when a very smart guy (I think it was David Baltimore) had a piece in Science about "junk" DNA. I thought to myself: "How could such a brilliant biologist think that a biologic system would add this much extraneous stuff?" Nature does not work that way...I never thought it was junk.

Time for me to admit it. I’m actually a chimp. They gave me a mac and internet access.
Hang on a second while I fling this poo...
Would you like my thoughts on metaphysical poetry?

Yes, and no monkeying around.

That theory does have a certain appeal to it.
