I want a Flying Spaghetti Monster exhibit there.
So how did the first cell come about, with all it's complexities?... then explain to me how the first molecule came about, with all it's complexitites?... then go back to the very first atom... where did it come from.... Nothing? How do you get something from nothing? Well?
I still find it interesting how honest debate is derided for the sake of empty attacks. Darwin certainly would not have behaved the way his progenies have. The disingenuous response has been unbecoming scientists of any stripe and the dogma runs deep especially for those who want to take the path that others have also taken in the past with unsavory results and turn Darwin's respectable theory into a method of encouraging a sort of politics of human minimalism and veiled atheism.
How many times I've read the false assertion that humans are basically hairless chimps. It would not be so bad if this were an accurate factual representation of the research conducted at MIT, Havard, and Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis which made the claim in Nature that 98.77% of our genome is the same that of chimpanzees. This is the popular assertion and most don't have go much further than accept it or reject it.
I can see why the general public would not know better, they don't know that huge expanses of DNA are excluded from such comparisons as "junk DNA", nor do they know that humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes and chimps have 24 pairs though there is evidence of what is left of a centromere as if two chromosomes somehow fused. The critical thing which evolutionary scientists are aware but seldom bring up is that comparing gene coding sequences is much like comparing lists of functions in a computer program while many of the same functions are used in many different programs it is the way the functions are executed or in the case of genes how they are transcribed that matters. The genes may look similiar in chimpanzees and humans but the proteins they eventually code for can be very different.
There are approximately 250,000 difference proteins where as there are no more than 40,000 genes which helps one illustrate how insufficient comparing gene coding sequences alone can be when comparing two genomes. It is just inaccurrate to say human beings are 98.77% chimps, it is not factually true and even though those doing the research know that this is a false representation of their research we continue to see a concerted push in what appears to be an attempt to deceive the generally population into believing that humanity not only is only slightly different than common apeas but can not be expected to act much better.
