Human and Chimp DNA Sequences Not As Similar as Evolutionists Believe

Evolutionists claim that human and chimp DNA are up to 99 percent similar and that this similarity is strong proof of macroevolution from chimp to human and that the two shared a common ancestor. However, creationists have recently begun to question this argument and give evidence to the contrary. Creationists have noted that large portions of DNA sequences in both chimps and humans were left out by evolutionists when making the comparison. Creationists claim that evolutionists only included the sections of DNA that were similar in each species, giving a high percentage of accuracy. Creationists have therefore concluded that a more realistic estimate is 75 to 82 percent when using all DNA sequences in both chimps and humans. There is also evidence of contamination in the laboratory samples used to compare chimp and human DNA, which could result in a greater similarity in DNA genome sequences.
Strong differences between chimps and humans include a conscience in humans whereas chimps have no ability to have a conscience. The ability to speak is also one of the largest differences and the size of the human brain is significantly larger. Chimp body physiology was designed to climb trees, unlike humans. Other mammals have many similar genome sequences to humans but there are differences that are significant enough to produce the differences that we observe today. There some features in all mammals that are similar, and therefore many mammals have the same DNA genome sequences in some areas. However, other sections of DNA in mammals would be vastly different. In addition, the similarities that we see in all mammals gives strong evidence of having the same creator, who would use similar features in all mammals along with striking differences. This unique creation is in stark contrast to the random, accidental, slow, and gradual macro-evolution from molecule to man that the evolutionists propose and is difficult to prove. In addition to having a conscience, humans can have a relationship with God, something that animals cannot have. The creationist message is that both humans and chimps were designed and created by God and while having some similarities, significant differences were also given to each in order to make each a unique and special creation.
