There is no “we evolved and apes did not evolve”. We all evolved. You can count the changes that accumulated in that DNA sequence as you go along the branches.
Count the changes from one branch to the other and you can see that we have all evolved, together, and then separately; at least that is the unmistakable conclusion if you understand the data.
I’ve not heard a creationist yet assert that Noah put every breed of dog on the ark, so they’re willing to accept that Rottweilers and chihuahuas could have become which each is today in less than 4,000 years.
They defend that by saying that, of course, changes occur within “kinds” or species, perhaps at a very dramatic rate. Perhaps at a rate that even science would have trouble accepting.
Yet the DNA between humans and chimpanzees is somewhere between 95-98% identical. A 95 will get you in A in most of your college classes, and a 98 surely will.
If the poodle and the Saint Bernard and the wolf and the fox had a common ancestor, it seems logical to wonder whether the humans and the apes had one, too.
Don’t confuse common descent with common design.
Our DNA would be expected to be very similar because we look similar and live in virtually identical environments and eat basically the same food.
Would you consider it evidence of intelligent design or creation if genetically we were wildly different?
