 [|Chimps and Human DNA are about 96% the same.] August 31, 2005

When I looked at this article it instantly caught my eye. A lot of debate between scientists has been going on because of the debates weather humans and monkeys (chimps) have almost the same DNA. The reason why majority of scientists believe this is because they have performed experiments on humans and monkeys to determine how similar our sequence of our genome are. Most of the scientists that believe this opinion are the scientists that also believe in Darwinism and The Theory of Evolution. They also believe that Darwin was on a right pathway of determining how similar our DNA’s are. Therefore if he found out for sure if we had at least 99.9% same DNA then the major part of his theory would be proven true. On the flip side, scientists that believe humans and monkeys DNA are more different than similar mostly believe that humans did not evolve from monkeys and ultimately they believe in creation.
