Evolutionary Link Found Between Humans, Creationists

Thanks to a recent discovery by scientists at MIT's biology
laboratory, scientists now know that humans and creationists share a
common evolutionary ancestor, and may even be the same species.

Biologist and human Mary Jenner announced the findings at a press
conference held in MIT's biology research laboratory. The key to the
discovery was the fact that, despite behavioral and cognitive
differences, both humans and creationists have 46 chromosomes, and are
able to interbreed to produce viable offspring. There are also a
number of pieces of fossil evidence to back up the findings.

Before the discovery, most scientists had thought the two groups were
unrelated, and probably different species. Scientists had based this
belief on certain behaviors found in creationists but not in humans:
creationists tend to congregate in stone building where they perform
strange rituals involving pleasing a mythical super-creationist who
lives in the sky, and also tend to not use modern scientific
methodology to validate knowledge.

But the new results show these differences may be merely learned
behavior, and not indicative of a deeper genetic difference.

Creationists and some humans have spoken out against the report. Even
the report's author is disappointed by the results, "I don't like to
think I'm related to creationists," says Jenner, "but if that's what
the facts show, that's what the facts show."

*****.

If we're related to creationists then how come they aren't
evolving into humans?
