But frankly, the Theory of Evolution is full of holes.
Yeah, I can't believe I share so much DNA with every other creature on earth either!

DNA and genetics must also be on a par with 'the Theory of Evolution ' - it's mostly theory, nothing concrete ...

You could share the DNA because we all were created by God, who started with some common DNA.

Of course, how much DNA we share with primates would lend support to the evolutionist.

However, there is still enough difference it is hard for me to accept it has to mean we evolved. It could mean that God organized similar animals in such a way that animals in the same phyla....without evolving....shared the same DNA.

There are cases of transitional fossils being located for primates, but these could also just be species in the same phyla that died out; they are not not necessarily evolutionary ancestors of modern humans.

I try to keep an open mind. I am not a moron and won't sit back and close my mind to science. Heaven help us if Christians do that. But, I need something that shows there can't be other explanations. Transitional fossils etc. still could have other explanations.
