Fairly detailed discussion of shared genetic mistakes

Discusses primate/mammal vitamin C, cetacean/artyodactyl and other recent discoveries from biochemistry confirming predictions made by evolution theory. IMO, Occam's Razor applies here: evolution assumes the observed fact that DNA is copied from one generation to another, all the other theories speculate that more hypotheses are needed, eg. that a creator/designer copies genetic material as part of the otherwise-undescribed process used to make new species.

"As to your statement about "identical point mutations", it is false. One of the problems they had when doing the genome project for humans was that the genome of each human being (let alone of different species) is different. Accordingly, they had to take samples from quite a few individuals and compare them, in order to "map" it. Even then, they missed many genes, and the results of the two different companies doing them were not in accord with each other.

If that were not enough, the genes for the same capabilities in different species are different. For that reason for example, the blood of different species, even though it performs the same function in all of them, cannot be used for other species. This shows that all these genes are indeed different and claims that there are "identical" point mutations are totally false. "

If there is anything in the article you linked to that contradicts the above, kindly quote it here, neither I nor others viewing this thread have the time to do your research for you.
