...Now, in closing today, we've seen that the Earth has gradually changed over millions of years and that the continents have drifted. Radiometric dating has solidly established that the Earth is billions of years old, leaving plenty of time for the engine of evolution, natural selection, and mutation to drive evolutionary progress. Now, Charles Darwin may have discovered the key principles of human evolution that we base these principles on, but it is my hope that you, the next generation, would take these theories and continue to help us prove just how evolution happens.

Now, with that, I'll open up the floor. Any questions you may have?

Okay, well, thank you for your time and enjoy the museum. [Music]

[Christina] "Sir, I have a question — well, quite a few questions, actually."

[McGuire] "Uh, okay, go ahead. Ask away."

"Well, you mentioned that one of the leading evidences that humans evolved from an ape-like ancestor is that human and chimp DNA is 98% similar."

[McGuire] "Uh, yes."

[Christina] "Well, how big is the human genome? How many base pairs?"

[McGuire] "Well, the exact figure varies over the years, but the last count was 3.097 billion base pairs. And how about chimps?"

[Christina] "The last count was 3.231 billion."

[McGuire] "Okay, so chimps have about 134 million more base pairs than we have, which means their genome is about 4.3% bigger. How is it possible to say that our DNA is like 98% similar when actually it's 4.3% bigger?"

[McGuire] "Well, when they made the comparison between our genome and theirs, they were so different that they had to break them apart into chunks that were similar, and then the comparisons were made."

[Christina] "Well, how much of the human and chimp DNA do they leave out?"

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Excerpt from transcript which can be downloaded from from YouTube. But since transcript which is a wall of text, I used a version of ChatGPT: https://poe.com/ to render each (approx. 2,00 word segment allowed), readable (to humans) by addiing punctuation, paragraph spacing, capitalization of pronouns, and place any interpolation being in brackets, but this aspect was only done by myself in the transcript below in adding speaker names the best I could.

Meanwhile, for the poster who thinks this "belongsinreligion" forum, not only is that ignorant (as if beliefs are not related to conservation vales) but by that measure you do not belong on the officially pro-God (of the Bible) FR.
