If evolution is wrong, is Creation right?

Would the creation model predict that humans and chimpanzees have nearly identical genomes despite being completely independently created, and that one major difference is a chromosome-fusion mutation in the human genome? Would the creation model predict that both would have the exact same mutation in a gene that creates vitamin-C synthase in other organisms, in the exact same spot in both genomes, despite each species being completely independently created? Does this really, truly constitute evidence of independent creation, or is it stretching the imagination rather egregiously?

You're right, chimpanzees have more chromosomes than humans do. Know why? Because, it seems, a mutation fused one pair long ago in the development of the human genome. These fusions have been observed in other species, too. The creation model can't account for it.The similarities between the human and chimp genomes only support an evolutionary hypothesis, especially if we include the non-functioning parts of the genome. Like I asked, what would be the sense in creating both species with identical mistakes in the non-coding regions of the genome? The evolution model explains that they both inherited the mutation from a common ancestor. The creation model can't account for it at all.Common designer? Well, why wouldn't all organisms have identical genomes then? They presumably all have the same 'designer,' right? Only the evolutionary model explains that the degree of genetic divergence between two organisms is directly proportional to the time that has elapsed since their last common ancestor lived. The creation model doesn't explain the degree of divergence at all.[This message has been edited by MrHambre, 02-02-2004]
