That is no explanation at all for if the observed rate of mutation is either insufficient to explain the difference in DNA between populations that diverged over six to seven million years, or if mutation is so robust that no species could survive for six or seven million years without going extinct due to degradation of the genome due to rampant mutation.

Moreover your “explanation” is absolutely insufficient to explain the nested hierarchy of similarity and divergence in DNA, the pattern of presence and divergence of ERV sequences; or why humans and chimps are more similar to each other than either is to a gorilla; or why new world and old world vultures are more similar to other non-vulture birds than they are to each other.

Completely and totally inadequate as an explanation. Moreover it is not, and never will be, a scientific explanation.

Huh?

Just because two different life forms have similar biological elements doesn’t mean one “evolved” from the other. There is absolutely NO scientific evidence of this whatsoever.

As I said, just because the creator uses similar materials for his creations, doesn’t mean they ARE the same creation.
