The genetic analysis is quite accurate and is predicted by evolutionary theory. The article cited here demonstrates quantitatively the predicted genetic differences between humans and chimps. This is much more than saying the DNA is 96% similar. It predicts what the differences are and, when tested, the prediction is confirmed. That would not be possible if we did not share a common ancestor with chimpanzees. Moreover, it also confirms previous research that estimated when the common ancestor divereged into different species. You may quote Scripture all you want, but it still remains that a hereditary, biological relationship exists between man and chimpanzees.

What I can never figure out is why there doesn't seem to be any Islamic IDers quoting the Koran (or Hindus, Buddhists, etc quoting their repective authorities) on these crevo threads. If there were, perhaps X-ians would realize how ridiculous it looks quoting the Bible.

What makes a book written during King James' reign and transcribed over time from writings made by itinerant wanderers (similar in look/demeanor to homeless people one sees walking the roadsides today) such an authority? I guess that why it's called 'faith'.
