How come apes aren't still turning into people?So if species have characteristics from both human and ape that doesn't provide evidence that we have a common ancestor but it does provide evidence that early humans have both ape and human features? Seems convoluted thinking does it not?That does not prove we evolved from the same creature apes did though only that perhaps those were early versions of what would become humans. Evolution with in a species is beyond compelling like I said the horse provides that evidence. As to dna and genetics all of life have similar make ups and we are close matches to more then one species, just means everything came from this planet with same building blocks.
The same goes for your genetics bit. Everything comes from the same building blocks and we have the most building blocks similar with apes that however is no indication of common ancestry?
By the way it's mutually supportive. One can search for a close genetic match between species and as such establish a chronology in the fossil record and then go out and test that chronology.
