orogenicman, Because God created them all differently that way. Humans cannot procreate with any animal unless it is human.
Just because they have fingers and a thumb and humans have fingers and a thumb does not make a human an ape or an ape a human nor does it prove we evolved one from the other. It is just that God created the ape, baboon, etc. with hands like that so they could fulfill very specific functions God created them to do.
Like I said, just because we have certain genes other animals have does not prove we are evolved from those animals. It just proves God created them all with their very specific gene system so they turn out the way they do and we turn out the way we do.
Humans cannot procreate with other animals. That should tell you something.
If apes and humans are not related, why do they, as well as all other primates share the following characteristics (that are shared with no other animals)?
Features found in all primates, including Homo sapiens include:
- meaning that thumbs can be held in position opposite to the attached fingers.
2.Hands and feet can grasp
-i.e. "prehensile" hands and feet
3.Fingernails instead of claws
-as opposed to other mammals such as bears, dogs, both large and domestic cats, and many other smaller animals have sharp claws at the end of each digit whereas primates have comparatively flatter fingernails and very sensitive tactile pads on palmer surface of the digits.
4.Flattened face resulting in two eyes next to each other pointing in the same directions
- as opposed to other mammals such as horses, deer, elephants, dolphins and many others whose eyes are on either side of the head/face pointed in opposite directions, i.e. one eye points to the left and the other to the right.
Eyes located side-by-side as in primates makes possible stereoscopic vision, which is important for depth perception.
5.32 teeth in permanent heterodont dentition
-"heterodont" refers to animals that have several different types of teeth, e.g. incisors, canines, premolars, and molars. This indicates feeding/hunting specialization in a species (compared with other species that are often considered more primitive e.g. certain bony fish, amphibians, and reptiles).
6.Single pair of mammary glands (breasts)
-as opposed to many other animals such as e.g. cats, dogs, pigs, rabbits and squirrels whose adult females have multiple pairs of mammary glands, which is important for feeding large litters of many young.
Wow and I have two eyes...does that make me a fish?

And the reason why Chimpanzees have been used in HIV research would be?
You know, I don't know if anyone has ever told you this, but denial is not a river in Egypt.
Hopefully, these threads will be preserved so folks 25 years from now can read exactly what certain primitive goat herders actually believed in the year 2014.

Isn't it wonderful that today we can talk about these things without the threat of an 'holy' inquisition?
