The problem with your DNA evidence is rampant throughout biology: correlation does not equal causation. But no biologist or evolutionists seem to understand that fact.

Nice slogan to write off litteraly astronomic odds that such matches in DNA sequences are merely accidental.

Well, I suppose God could have cut and pasted His DNA algorithms that just happen to match the fossil record of species branching. The same fossil record that predates our DNA technology and predicted it's outcome. By the way, ID hasn't predicted squat, much less anything this impressive.

Or, you could just have misinterpreted Genesis.

I vote the latter, and recognize that your faith will be everlasting. Whether you're right or wrong.

It's funny how people can do that.

Whether it's you that's following faith, or me. The fact is that one or the other of us is following pure, unadulterated, BS.

I'll vote with the DNA.

You can vote with the OJ Jury.

Yes. And you can't be sure that the latest edition of Encyclopedia Britannica is really the successor to all those previous editions. Just because you can trace the articles and their changes from one edition to the next, just because you can trace the editorial board's names from one edition to the next, just because you can trace the organization of the volumes, just because ... well, all that could be a gigantic coincidence. You have no proof that the presently available Britannica is in any way related to all those earlier Britannicas. Correlation does not equal causation!

Only TWO choices?
