"That is what science is, the study of things.... "

And as we all know, there is what we call "exact science", hypotheses that can be proved, or reproduced through experiment, etc. There are different forms of science. The people who try to present these ape/man/origin-of-man theories as exact science need to be exposed. And judging by the rage of some these pseudo scientists, I can see they don't like to have their misrepresentations torn apart by logic and reason. They present their findings, but festoon them in a fashion that attempts to confuse the reader into thinking their theory has been proven by exact science, it's all smoke and mirrors. That chimps have a 99% similar DNA to humans means nothing to the origin of man, especially when you consider that cats have a 90% similar DNA to humans. And even more so when you consider the fact that science itself has never held DNA to be the indicator of human origin. There are so many presumptions, presppositions and holes in this "scientific" argument that it's like Swiss cheese. As for me, science itself proves the existence of God, just as the Masterpiece proves the existence of an artist. Pax Chrisi.

Uh huh.... doesn't surprise me, cats and humans are both mammals. The distinctions become smaller the closer you get.... kindof like taking a distance and with each step cutting it in half.

That is bull. No one educated at all believes that theories about things as massive and unrepeatable as creation or evolution are fully known, proven, or that there will be no more mysteries or surprises or future better theories.

As for me, science itself proves the existence of God, just as the Masterpiece proves the existence of an artist.

Uh huh.... OK - Some still make a life out of finding out a couple more details. For some, just knowing more about it is cool.

Oh PUH lease....

Now it is on you to prove your supposition.

You talk a lot, but I have yet to see a fact come out of you.

I hear a creationist loon spouting off about something that he knows next to nothing about.

Keep going, your rants are rather amusing.

[Kenny Bunk:] Yo Junior, we share 90% of our DNA with watermelons. So does that mean we must invite chimps to our 4th of July picnic?

LOL! OK you two, your homework for tonite is to read post 149. There'll be a quiz on this in the morning. :-)
