What about the differences between chimps and humans?

[FrumiousBandersnatch]

Another false statement, you people will believe anything, including false scientific data (agendas)

She works for Answers In Genesis, and they have a requirement that, "it is imperative that all persons employed by the AiG ministry in any capacity, or who serve as volunteers, should abide by and agree to our Statement of Faith and conduct themselves accordingly."

Their lengthy Statement of Faith, saying what must be accepted without question, includes the following, "No apparent, perceived, or claimed evidence in any field of study, including science, history, and chronology, can be valid if it contradicts the clear teaching of Scripture obtained by historical-grammatical interpretation."

That is clearly contrary to the use of the scientific method. Follow the link and you can verify it for yourself.

 

[Psalm 27]

Most Christians are not creationists.

Nope. Don’t believe you

Welcome to the thread. Your post is a little all over the place and includes some off topic items. Here I consider the rest...



The 98% figure is for Chimps-Humans, not all mammals.



This is several claims made without references. Can you support these assertions? I find it unlikely that differences are ignored. Much of science is about studying differences between similar things.



While non-coding DNA might have been over characterized as "junk" by some geneticists, there are chunks of your DNA that almost certainly are useless junk such as complete copies of viral genomes inserted during ancestral infections.



Cosmologists have determined, by measurement, that the Universe is 13.8 billion years old, but this fact is irrelevant to biology, evolution, or human-chimp differences.



Common ancestry is one of the fundamental claims of evolutionary theory. It is not a "belief" but rather a central hypothesis of the theory.



The Chromosome 2 merger is well established by the genomic sequence of humans and chimps including the remnants of the pre-fusion telomeres and centromeres in our Chromosome 2. If you would like to claim otherwise (as you just did) evidence to the contrary is indicated.



Now you've switched from a 2% difference claim for all mammals (when it is really for Humans/Chimps) to a 20% difference claims specifically between Humans and Chimps.

Whether a mutation degrades, improves, or is neutral it is still a change.

[Shemjaza]

Another false statement.

The definition for Creationist most commonly used around here is someone who believes humans were specially created in their current form and did not evolve?

Most Christians, globally, are comfortable humans evolving from other life, just that God has ultimate control and authorship of the universe.

Yep and humans are still mammals.

What's your point?

 

[Psalm 27]

Yep and humans are still mammals.

What's your point?

Humans are still humans, what’s yours?

Although, like finches we all have different beaks...

 

[VirOptimus]

Humans are still humans, what’s yours?

You really really dont understand even the very basics of the theory of evolution.

 

[Shemjaza]

Humans are still humans, what’s yours?

Both are true.

Modern humans are a variety of ape classified as Homo sapiens.

There isn't any coherent objective measure to draw a hard line between "human" and "ape".

 

[Psalm 27]

I have to go and appreciate God’s invisible attributes from His creation now. Bye bye

Romans 1:20

 

[AV1611VET]

Modern humans are a variety of ape classified as Homo sapiens.

With the exception of A on that skull chart, every one of those are Homo sapiens.

Labeling them differently is like labeling our Thalidomide children differently.

Have you only just figured that out! Just shows how gullible you scienty types are
It’s not a theory, it’s a lie

 

[Psalm 27]

I'm not a huge fan of being the same species as Hitler, but it doesn't let me pretend that Homo nazi is a separate creation by space demons.

Hitler, Manson, dahmer, hindley, Brady...me, you,...we have ALL fallen short of the glory of God.

What don't you believe? - the quotes are cut & pasted directly from the Answers In Genesis website, from the page I linked to; both Dr. Georgia Purdom's bio and Answers In Genesis say she works for them.

You can ask her yourself - here are her contact details:

In you own words, what does a scientific theory entail?

 

[Bradskii]

Yup. Yet another disappointment - by elimination, I was guessing social sciences - but the attitude contradicted that... Possibly a graduate of the Dunning-Kruger school of BS

It ain't geology. He thinks the planet is a few thousand years old. I've got $10 here I will send to to anyone's favourite charity if you can get him to admit it.

Farcical overeating of self is very pronounced
among creationists.
Wish we could get a good one, that would
be interesting.

Look how my wish was answered.

Newton invested in slavery so calculus and the
fundamental laws of physics are invalid.
