Awesome.
Here's a few observations from genetics supporting common ancestry:
203,000 endogenous retrieval insertions shared by humans and chimpanzees
Human chromosome 2 is a fusion of chimpanzee 2a and 2b.
All Haplorhine primates share a broken GULO gene for vitamin C production inherited from a common ancestor.
Whales have a broken Sonic Hedgehog/Hand2 pathway for hind limb development inherited from a common ancestor.
All placental and marsupial mammals have vitellogenin pseudogenes for egg yolk sac development.
While I appreciate your post, it is quite over my head with terms with which I am unfamiliar. Can you break it down by chance?
Now that I have a proper keyboard and mouse, all of these things are predictions or expected observations if common ancestry is a fact.
Endogenization is when viral DNA get's incorporated into a genome. The process is really quite uncommon. A viral infection has to get into a germ cell (egg or sperm) and that particular germ cell has to be the one to become a baby. That baby has to then grow up and be reproductively successful to the point where the endogenized viral DNA "fixes" or spreads to a majority of the population. Despite all those variables, it has happened 203,000 separate times in the shared ancestry of humans and chimpanzees. On the other hand, since the ancestral population split into humans and chimps, it has only happened about 300 times.
It was known that humans have 46 chromosomes while our fellow apes have 48 and it was predicted that we should find evidence of a fusion event. Fusion or duplication of chromosomes can cause genetic disorders, but if none of the genes that actually do stuff (form structures, etc.) is damaged, a duplication or fusion won't effect the fitness of the individual in which it happens. Similarly with ERVs that individual must be reproductively successful enough that their fused chromosome becomes the norm in the population. Sure enough when geneticists did a proper sequencing and analysis of the human and chimpanzee genomes, they found that human chromosome 2 had an extra middle part called a centomere and two extra end parts called telomeres indicating that it was a fused version of 2 ancestral genes which remaine separate in the chimpanzee line.
Haplorhines are a group of primates that includes tarsiers, monkeys and apes (including humans).
L-gulonolactone oxidase or GULO is an enzyme that synthesizes vitamin C. In haplorhines it is non-functional (GULOp for pseudogene) and is broken in the same way for all of us. It's also non-functional in bats and guinea pigs, but it's broken in a different way in each of those two groups.
Whales and dolphins are proposed to have evolved from terrestrial mammals. If that is true then we could expect to find some anatomical and genetic vestiges of that evolutionary history. We've known that whales have vestigial pelvises that have been coopted for function other than anchoring the hind limbs. whales actually grow hind limb buds in the embryonic stage which usually are absorbed back into the body. A humpback whale in 1919 (if I recall correctly) was discovered with redumentary atavistic (throwback) legs on the hind part of it's body. In 2006 a dolphin was discovered with even more rudimentary hind limbs.
Cetacean Evolution: Whale Evolution and Atavistic Hind Limbs on Modern Whales
A few years back the identified the mutation that caused them to lose their hind limbs. Sonic Hedgehog (yes, that's it's actual name) and Hand2 work together to form the hind limbs in mammals. In whales that gene pathway is still there, inherited from terrestrial ancestors, but it's non-functional.
Placental and marsupial mammals have inherited pseudogenes for making egg yolk sacs even though we don't produce actual amniotic eggs like monotremes (platypus, echidna), birds and reptiles do.
