and why wouldn't God make his creations similar if we are created in God's image we use his methods in our creation. One example would be cars now i have a geo prizm it is made by chevy but the toyota corolla is exactly the same parts wise for the corresponding year model, it has, to borrow the colloquialism the same dna of my car. asking Why?? they are the same seems pointless obviously some of the same people designed it ![]() but i guess if i were an evolutionist i would say that they evolved from a common ancestor by chance ![]()

so... are you saying god took a bunch of random dna and tweaked things here and there and made man? and then tweaked a few more things and made chimpanzees? or did he make the chimps first and tweaked them slightly to make man? doesnt the bible say that man came first? or did got set up the world before man came along?

i'm surprised at your attitude about dna it is one of the most complex aspect of science there is and honestly i don't know very much about it myself but none of it is unneccessary or random and it is very improbable that something that complex could come about by chance,

the main reason i find evolution so impossibe is the natural course of the world, things get worse and wear out (my car for example), things don't improve or get better, they get old and die (my old horse for example there) if things like say a dell pc were left on the top of a mountain it would not evolve into a mac powerbook it would just get ruined, the same goes for animals

in reality DNA is very inefficient and nowhere near as structured as they believed... it acts much more like something that was developed and patched along the way, as opposed to a nice clear design from scratch a clear pointer that either evolution is true, or our designer isn't as good as we think he is ![]()

We can eat things that don't have particularly similar DNA - plants, for example, are a whole different kingdom, as are fungi, and we can eat them.
As to experiments bringing something from nothing, I don't have links (because I read this in a printed book that is somewhere within what is the mess that is my bookshelves) but they did some experiments in the 60s that got as far as amino acids by jolting electricity through sealed environments built to model ancient Earth (ie much carbon, less oxygen in the air, etc). And brownjenkins is right about DNA being a jumble. A high percentage of it is so-called "junk DNA", which appears not to have any real use. In fact, there are enzymes that exist just to cut junk DNA out of DNA before it can be expressed.
