Joshua 10:13
“So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the nation
avenged itself on its enemies… The sun stopped in the
middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day.”

B) Shared Genetic Flaws
• Some detrimental traits exist in the genome
• We share this flaw with chimps, and bonobos, but not with
gorillas and orangutans
3. Molecular Homology
A) Processed Pseudogenes
• Following insertion, pseudogenes resemble
normal genes
• Non-functional, so mutations can run wild
• Because we have functional (un-mutated) gene
to compare, age of pseudogene can be
determined
