“Since different features can be built using the same genes, some of the similarities between chimp and human genes carry less relevance for an evolutionary interpretation of origins. The assumption that people are evolutionary relatives of chimps because they share similar genes is invalid for at least two reasons. First, even though research has found that a 4.4 percent average difference in sequence exists between the similar genes, there are in fact many distinct genes that humans have and chimps do not, and vice versa. Second, there is a large percentage of the two separate genomes that have not yet been correlated, and it is likely that significant non-gene sequence differences will become known—just as one recent study discovered.5
Even with the same or almost the same genes, many differences between apes and humans exist because the genes are “unpacked” differently during development. To make the story of human evolution plausible, its proponents need to demonstrate not only a natural mechanism that generates new complete genes from scratch, but another natural mechanism that generates the precise and effective gene unfolding programs that are known to produce distinct cells, tissues, organs, and organisms. “
??????????????????????????????????????
Clueless.

No, actually what has been done here is that science has been used to contradict a bogus hypothesis - that all creatures have evolved from nothing? In true science, all hypotheses are tested with new data and findings to either be strenghtened or diminished. In the case of Darwin’s hypothesis of the “Origin of the Species”, the argument is getting weaker each day.
We would also hope that good science will be employed to continue the formation of a more tenable hypothesis than Darwin’s. The only dilemma we have at this point is there is no good theory to explain miraculous creation. So we may find (and have found in the past), that science and the intellect of man has it’s limitations.
Real science is OK, its the evolutionism that reeks.
