from post #302: "You excised the portion saying that they compared one percent of the total respective genomes."

But I also pointed out it was a more-or-less random comparison that produced 98% without indels and 95% counting the indels.

Do you know there have been more recent full-genome comparisons?
What do you suppose they found?

"WASHINGTON, Wed., Aug. 31, 2005 - The first comprehensive comparison of the genetic blueprints of humans and chimpanzees shows our closest living relatives share perfect identity with 96 percent of our DNA sequence, an international research consortium reported today."

So now, tell us all again, pal: what exactly is your problem here?

“At the protein level, 29 percent of genes code for the same amino sequences in chimps and humans.”

Somehow you also missed this portion.

TTFN.
