Pro-evolution scientists cherry pick similarities in various animals and focus only on the similarities as their proof of macroevolution. At the same time, they ignore or explain away differences.
Uhoh, the text is getting bigger now.... I request we move to Defcon 2 for creationist meltdown.
Homology is just part of the whole picture, although even by itself it would be reasonably conclusive, if you are unconvinced by such things, I suggest you read up on additional evidence.
I suspect you think homology is just counting fingers and saying two species are related, but the relationship is even more simple than that.
There are genes in all living things which perform basic life functions. The sequence of proteins could be in a million different ways to perform the same function, and yet different species share these same ubiquitous genes.
There is only one observed function which copies similar sequences, and that is heredity, and I assume you aren't denying heredity exists.
Therefore it is a clear link between different organisms and a genealogical relationship.
We're not just counting fingers, you admit microevolution exists yes? How do we know? We can observe the heredity as it happens, at both a physiological, anatomical and molecular level.
The question is; especially at the molecular level, how do YOU explain similar protein patterns between grossly anatomically different organisms, in some cases where the protein is unnecessary, unless heredity was involved?

If you’re going to watch tele, you should watch Scooby Doo. That show was so cool because every time there’s a church with a ghoul, or a ghost in a school. They looked beneath the mask and what was inside?
