DNA Proves Existence of a Designer

[Paleophyte]

Plants are alive. Herbivores kill them to survive. This is needless death and suffering. That can only be explained by a malevolent deity.

You are just grasping for straws. Plants are not conscious life, and they do not suffer any pain.

Plants suffer distress when damaged. They don't suffer pain the way we do, but even singe-celled organisms suffer. Plunk an amoeba on a hotplate and it'll writhe in agony. Your lack of empathy is disturbing.

Regardless, all those carnivores out there eat animals that shriek and writhe I an agony that you can comprehend. They do this according to their instincts. They have no choice in the matter but to maim and kill and rend.

God is malevolent.

They are also very obviously here to feed all the conscious life on this planet.

All these plants exist just for you? Impressively self-centered.

Is God HyperMalevolent? Does God suffer from obligate hatred?

Then how do you account for the fact that we share 97% of our ERV with chimpanzees? ERV are Endogenous RetroViruses, viruses that inserted themselves into your DNA, got stuck there, and eventually were transmitted to the entire species. We share 97% of ours with the chimps, and that's the same virus in the same location with the same mutations and the same LTR "header" and "footer". Similarities of  ERV are also seen in other primates and more distantly related organisms, with decreasing similarity observed between more distantly related organisms.

This is precisely what the theory of common descent predicts. How do you account for it?

That 3% of our DNA  amounts to 330 million differences in DNA, and that is just what we know about so far. It only sounds small as a percentage and many have argued that it is the most important part of our DNA. Look at the millions of differences between a human and a chimp in regards to practically everything that matters about being human. We are worlds apart.

I'm not talking about all your DNA, just the ERV. Try again while I laugh at you arguing against the other 97%.
