From the last couple of posts I have seen catching up on this thread:-Once again the scientific community is shocked by how different our genes/chromosomes are from monkeys....-Life is much younger than we thought...-Err.. duh. -Sorry, this does not come as a shock, or a surprise. It comes as more proof that pet theories are just pet theories and are still held in high esteem despite evidence to the contrary. In order to defend those theories, even more wildly unbelievable(and even less supportable)theories are being used to shore up the crumbling framework. -(Not a real quote, just an abstract message from all the articles)
"Well, life didn't have as long to evolve, so natural selection didn't have as long to work, and genetic diversity is greater than we thought... I know!! If we claim that life evolved elsewhere we can get that 1 Billion Years back and it all works again!!"
