What's that supposed to mean? I love it when bad logic is portrayed as science. Sure the scientists in question have identified the functions of gene sequences with great precision and skill but, to jump from there to the rest is simply rediculous. Everybody be nice? There's no need to be mean to anyone just for being wrong. It's their God given right :)

Scientists discover we have one fewer chromosome than the apes and then find a large section of one of our chromosomes that looks like it used to be a centromere.
The theory that fusion took place is a good one. It may not be correct, but there is evidence that it is.
It's hardly a ridiculous theory.
Here's an example of a ridiculous theory: the big sky-daddy is testing our faith by planting this genetic evidence.
