Genome sequencing leaves Creationists unable to respond

Description:

Evolution argues that we share a common ancestor with chimpanzees and gorillas. And indeed, one of our chromosomes is the result of a fusion of two primate chromosomes. Our chromosome #2 was formed by the fusion of two primate chromosomes, and scientists can prove this. When presented with the evidence, Creationists are simply unable to respond. This video proves our common ancestry. (Credit: Kurpalac@YouTube)

My question to "PROCLAIMEROFTRUTH": If Evolution is incorrect about the diversity in the biosphere, how did the animals come into existance? (please dont say Creation Hypothosis, the flaws in that outnumber those in every other theory. Also, it has been shown mathematically that Creationism requires Super-Evolution)

center.....Hubble spectra of gas 60 light years from the center of the M87 disk show that it is revolving with a speed of about 550 kilometers a second; closer to the center the velocity reaches 800 km/s??? you could say time is distorted also? the inside of a galaxy's time frame could be considerably faster in time reference than the outside? which could also indicate our galaxy could be young while the outer fringes of the universe are much older?

Is there no end to their speculations? talking about grabbing for straws. How many if, and or buts did he have in his "proof" of evolution. researchers based their conclusion on a comparison of only 97 genes from humans and various primates.,the human genome has at least 30,000 genes. similarities prove nothing but a Common Designer.we live in the same environment, breathe the same air, etc... just more bullshit.

The ones grasping for straws here is the Creationist crowd. From defeat to defeat, soon without any arguments left.

What function does Chomosome # 2 play? Is it less hair, That we can't mate with monkeys to have babies, Can't pass disease to each other, Opposable thumb, Speech, or anything that makes us different from monkies?? What does that chromozome do?

This is very cool and fascinating too! And hes roman catholic. Why is the older version of christianity often more reasonable? Hmm. Maybe they are still reminded of the crusades where as the rabid right in the US are trying to create the next. Hmmm. And they say that evolution encourages lawlessness, chaos etc. Theres an idea with no evidence. Most peaceful cultures are atheist. More religion, more death. Open your eyes.

Nicely stated. Interesting that Roman Catholics also support universal health care in this country as well. And did you know that Pope John Paul the II in his encyclical stated that Evolution is a fact?

This bit with the fused chromosomes ought to baffle any creationists, though it's not as if the evidence wasn't already overwhelming. This one, though, is newer and cooler than anything I've seen before. My pet example of evidence for evolution in molecular biology used to be hox genes, but maybe I'll switch it to human chromosome #2.

It doesn't matter if Collins is a Christian or not. That he compartmentalizes his mind to switch off his rational thoughts when dealing with superstition is not an argument for religion.

That is a pretty superficial argument, especially for someone who, I am assuming (and forgive me if I am wrong), did not read his book and does not know his argument.

No, the superficial, fallacious argument is appeal to authority. That Collins believes in God does not mean that he is right.

Never said he was right, just rational. The point here is that the only honest opinion about the existence of God is agnosticism. Dawkins himself pretty much admits this.

Oh, and by the way, if you watch the interview I sent, you will notice that Collins was not raised as a believer and actually PREFERRED to not believe, because he could thus be responsible only to himself. So there was no bias.

I don't care about Collins. He is irrelevant. And he is not rational when he believes in God, no matter what you might think. And no, agnosticism is not the only "honest" opinion. Give me a break. You are done here.

I suppose Satan tricked collins into believing it. Or better yet Satan changed the physical laws of the universe GOD made to trick man kind huh?

There are agenda-pushers on both sides. There are also Christians and atheists who have no agenda whatsoever. Why do some people always feel the need to polarize, saying "us" and "them". Why can't we all just treat each other as individuals and share our ideas?
