It is hard to imagine anybody would seriously cite a creationist lawyer's opinion and his own home-baked beliefs as an argument against an established scientific principle, a biological fact that is supported by overwhelming evidence. As far as human evolution is concerned, one of the most compelling pieces of recent evidence in favor of the descent of humans from the common ancestor of non-human primates, namely chimpanzees and bonobos, is the 98% structural similarity of DNA between the three species of primates. What is Phillip Johnson's abstract legal argument against that physical evidence?
