identical. The molecules derived from rats, guinea-pigs, man and pigs are as
distant from each other (approximately 55%) as all are from the
elasmobranch's relaxin. ...Insulin, however, brings man and pig
phylogenetically closer together than chimpanzee and man. 291
Schwabe was faced by the same realities when he compared the
arrangements of other proteins besides insulin and relaxin. Schwabe has
this to say about these other proteins that constitute exceptions to the
orderly molecular development proposed by evolutionists:
The relaxin and insulin families do not stand alone as exceptions to the
orderly interpretation of molecular evolution in conventional monophyletic
terms. It is instructive to look at additional examples of purportedly
anomalous protein evolution and note that the explanations permissible
under the molecular clock theories cover a range of ad hoc explanations
apparently limited only by imagination. 292
Schwabe reveals that the comparison of the arrangement of
lysosomes, cytochromes, and many hormones and amino acids show
"unexpected results and anomalies" from the evolutionary point of view.
Based on all this evidence, Schwabe maintains that all proteins had their
