Answers with Ken Ham - What Separates Us from Apes?


Listen Later

This is Ken Ham, a missionary with a passion for sharing God’s Word with the world.

Yesterday, we learned we don’t actually share 98% of our DNA with chimps. That number’s been shown to be false. And that should be obvious because we’re so different from apes!

First off, they’re huge anatomical differences. Our knees face forward so we can walk upright but chimps’ knees, along with their wrists, fingers, and hips are shaped very differently for climbing trees and walking on all fours.

Humans can design skyscrapers, write music, and discuss philosophy. Apes, while smart, rely solely on instinct.

Humans have a conscience, something no ape has.

And, most importantly, we alone are made in the image of God.
