I know that other people have addressed the evolution concerns in other posts, However, I came across this piece which I wrote for alt.religion.mormon, a while back. It's cobbled together from a couple of different sources (researched rather than plagiarised
)
These are some of the reasons why I believe that Humans have evolved from a common ancestor with the apes.
--------------------------------------------------------
1) The Evidence of Genetic Biology.
Amino acid sequencing of homologous proteins, and immunological and
electrophoretic methods of protein comparisons have demonstrated that human
polypeptides are more than 99% identical to those of the chimpanzee (king
and Wilson, 1975). There is a great similarity between the 46 chromosomes of
Humans and the 48 chromosomes of the great apes (Chiarelli, 1972 & Moore,
1977).
Karyotypes of Man, Chimpanzee and Gorilla are so similar that it is
difficult to establish their evolutionary distinction (Miller, 1977) in
fact, The gorilla is much closer to Human, evolutionary speaking, than it is
to the Chimpanzee.
Blood proteins of primates have been analysed and compared (Goodman, Coen,
Barnabas and Moore, 1972) to the Human. The serum proteins can be seen on a
sliding scale of similarity from the prosimians – New world Monkeys – old
world monkeys – apes to Human.
2) The evidence of the digestive system.
The alimentary tract of nearly all the primates is similar. (Clarke, 1973).
While the liver of the monkey is located in a slightley different place to humans, The Apes and Man have the
liver attached in the same place (Strauss 1936).
3) The evidence of parasites
The great apes and man are host to more of the same parasites than man
shares with any other mammal (Dunn1966). Again, predictably, Man shares most
(over 50%) of these with the chimp and the gorilla.
The malarial parasites of man and every one of the apes has evolved from a
common ancestor. This indicates that the hosts did likewise.
4) Evidence of dentition
One of the most important indications of a link between man and ape is the
dental formula. The more primitive new world monkeys have a strikingly
similar dental formula. In the Old world Monkeys, Great apes and Man the
dental formula is exactly the same, i.e.
2.1.2.3
2.1.2.3
5) Evidence of vision
Most primates, including Man have two kinds of photoreceptors, Rods and
cones. The former permitting dim-light vision, and the latter permitting
colour vision. Maximum scotopic (rod) and photopic (cone) sensitivity have
been founds at 510 nm and 550 nm for both apes and man (king and Forbes
1974). Stereoscopy and detailed acuity are two primate features, which
probably evolved as a result of an ancient arboreal habitat.
Colour vision is exceptionally good in primates, unlike most other mammals –
possibly as a result of early fruit bearing trees.
6) Evidence of audition.
Auditory ability probably changed during evolution as evidence by the
following.
Animal Max hearing freq.
Prosimian 75,000
New world Monkey 46,000
Old world Monkey 45,000
Chimp 26,000
Man 20,000
It should be noted that, while 20,000 hz is about the maximum sensitivity
that man can hear, his best sensitivity is around 3,000 hz, the same as the
apes. (Forbes and King 1977)
7) Evidence of the grasp response
All primate infants, including Human babies possess an involuntary grasp
response, this possibly evolved as a result of a need to cling to a parent
in an arboreal habitat
Once again the grasp response is on a sliding scale according to the
‘development’ of the primate. Rhesus monkeys can cling for up to 30 minutes.
Chimps can cling for up to 3 minutes. Humans can cling for up to 2 minutes
Evidence of the brain
Primate brains are distinguished from those of other mammals by an increase
of the size of the occipital lobe. The higher intelligence of apes is
probably related to the increased cerebral convolutions, which permit more
efficient use of cranial capacity. Mankind’s convolution patterns are
similar to that of the apes, but with a larger overall capacity the
increased cortical representation for vision versus the decreased olfactory
representation, the increase in the frontal lobe size and, above all, the
increase in complexity of cerebral convolutions, which reach a high degree
in apes and man, indicate an evolutionary linkage.
9) Evidence of intelligence
A controversial word, however it is accepted that chimps are the most
intelligent of the non-human primates. They have been trained in symbol
representation and ASL and have shown evidence of ‘true’ language (the
manipulation of words and concepts – for example the use of two concepts
like ‘water’ and ‘bird’ to represent duck)
The great apes undoubtedly exhibit a most advanced intelligence, similar to
that of mankind. This, along with all other evidences is a further
confirmation of an evolutionary link between Man and primate.
I think it's pretty good.
