1) Evolution from ape to human just "looses" two chromosomes (1 pair). It is impossible.
2) Chromosomes 2 and 3 just "fuse" into one long jumbo doubled-up chromosome

Not a decent enough slave for the off worlders...just not intelligent enough for them to manipulate...they needed a better slave....so here we are....once we were created....they needed to create a story....they needed us to believe them that they were our creators....they created god....they needed us to fear GOD.....it is always easier to control through fear....look at the way we have controlled animals in the wild kingdom.....yes i agree.....our DNA was messed with....and it was done for breeding purposes....to make and create better slaves....to all my fellow humans.....WELCOME TO SLAVERY....and we are still slaves.....but fortunately for humanity as a whole...some of us slave are waking up....and you know what.....OUR creators do not like it.

Why not? Evolution is about changes in the genome. Not all chromosomes have the same number of genes.
There may have been a fusion of chromosomes on the part of humans, or a split of chromosomes in other apes. It doesn't really matter. And it doesn't mean that we did not evolve from a common ancestor.edit on 3/26/2012 by Phage because: (no reason given)
But evolution does not occur in an 'overnight' (in archaelogical means) process....in the natural evolutionary order of things, other species (especially the primate) has 3-4 million year gaps between each stage.
After about ten generations of controlled breeding, these domesticated silver foxes no longer showed any fear of humans and often wagged their tails and licked their human caretakers to show affection. They also started to have spotted coats, floppy ears, and curled tails.

Dmitry Konstantinovich Belyaev has proven otherwise. He performed an experiment using Silver Foxes and was able to show a significant evolutionary change in the animals within 10 generations of litters. That is how ancient man was able to domesticate the wolf. By selecting the least skittish of animals and continuously breeding them.

If the ancient aliens had any influence on human history then maybe there was no need for genetic manipulation. Maybe they were in search of the most timid hominids and bred them together to domesticate us.

'___' is ubiquitous in plants.[3] It occurs as trace amounts in mammals, including humans, where it may putatively function as a trace amine neurotransmitter.[4] It is originally derived from the essential amino acid tryptophan and ultimately produced by the enzyme INMT during normal metabolism.[5] The natural significance of its widespread presence remains undetermined.
The karyotype of the domestic horse differs from that of Przewalski’s horse by an extra chromosome pair either because of the fission of domestic horse chromosome 5 in Przewalski’s horse or fusion of Przewalski’s horse chromosomes 23 and 24 in the domestic horse. In comparison, the chromosomal differences between domestic horses and zebras include numerous translocations, fusions, and inversions. Przewalski’s horse is known to have the highest diploid chromosome number among all equine species. Przewalski’s horse can interbreed with the domestic horse and produce fertile offspring (65 chrosomes)
The common chimp (Pan troglodytes) and human Y chromosomes are "horrendously different from each other", says David Page of the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research in Cambridge, Massachusetts, who led the work.
"It looks like there's been a dramatic renovation or reinvention of the Y chromosome in the chimpanzee and human lineages."
Even more striking than the gene loss is the rearrangement of large portions of the chromosome. More than 30% of the chimp Y chromosome lacks an alignable counterpart on the human Y chromosome, and vice versa, whereas this is true for less than 2% of the remainder of the genome.
Even the portions that do line up have undergone erratic relocation. In the only other chromosome to have been sequenced to the same degree of completeness in both species, chromosome 21, the authors found much less rearrangement.
"If you're marching along the human chromosome 21, you might as well be marching along the chimp chromosome 21. It's like an unbroken piece of glass," says Page. "But the relationship between the human and chimp Y chromosomes has been blown to pieces."

Firstly chromosome fusion has occured in other species and yes they can sometimes reproduce an example is the mongolian horse.

Case in point, the wild/mongolian horse was DOMESTICATED and so lost a pair of chromosomes during the genetic engineering.
Mongolian horse: 66 chromosomes
Dometicated horse: 64 chromosomes
