It is true that we as humans share 90% of our Genes with Apes... But it is also true that we share 50% of of our genes with bananas. I hope I'm not half banana. Also we share 100% of our genes with... Dirt! the exact substance god said he made us out of.

I do believe this poor fellow is more closely related to a banana that he realizes.
Sorry, BurntBush, but that banana figure isn't so far off.
we share 100% of our genes with... Dirt!
Now while dirt is full of countless fungi, larvae, worms, seeds, spores and the like, the main forms of life in dirt are prokaryotes not eukaryotes. No we don't share 100% of our genes with any of the life forms in dirt, and as for the non living matter, ummmmm no!
Is this what most kids are learning when they're home-schooled?
....Uh....
If we shared 100% of our genes with dirt, y'know what we'd be?
DIRT!
NOT HUMAN BEINGS, BUTT-NUGGET!
The A horizon, or topsoil, is decaying organic matter and would probably have the genetic material of leaf litter, other dead decaying plants, and the bacteria in the decay process. Further down, it's inorganic until you get to regolith and bedrock and would not have any genetic material. It is safe to say that almost none of our genetic code is found here. We are related to everything on earth, closest to primates, then to other mammals, then to other vertebrates, then to invertebrates, then to plants, then to protozoans (even that "bug" tha last made you sick).
Nope. You share 50% of your genetic structure with a bannanna because you're both living organisms.
Past that, the similarity ends, hence the great difference between you and a bannanna. For instance, you are neither color-coded for convenience nor particularly edible, although those with broader tastes might disagree.
Even they won't find you palatable.
You also posses traits no bannanna has, such as the ability to use language in a primitive form, operate a computer (albeit poorly) and waltz into a conversation and fling shit everywhere, a trait you seem to have inherited from our cousins the chimpanzes.
You share 0% percent of your genetic structure with dirt, because it HAS nogenetic structure.
Capishe?

If dirt had genes...which I don't believe it does...and we shared 100% of those genes, wouldn't we be, well, dirt?
BREAKING NEWS - DIRT GENES FOUND !!
who buried the body where this guy would test ?
I have a body part that looks somewhat like a banana.
you are a disgrace to every real life sergeant in this world and to Sergeant Sarge from the popular web series red vs blue.
also, dirt doesn't have genes
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
