Creationism does NOTHING to explain the nested hierarchy of similarity and divergence one finds among closely related species that makes functional sequences highly conserved and nonfunctional sequences diverge at the neutral mutation rate.
What is the creationist explanation for why all primates have the same frame-shift mutation in the GULO gene for vitamin C synthesis?
What is the creationist explanation for why, if you find the same ERV sequence in a human and a gorilla it will also be in a chimp; and be more divergent than ones found only in humans and chimps (which will be more divergent than ones found only in humans, which will be more divergent than ones found only is some human populations)?
And no, little Russian dolls do not explain it.
We have been all over this, Allmendream. As I have already explained to you, mankind, which is made in God’s image, routinely designs in terms of nested hierarchies. So why should we be surprised that the God who made us in His own image also creates using nested hierarchies?
Waaaaaaaaaaaay over the head.
The vitamin c mutation is also found in guinea pigs. What type of ape is guinea pig?
