OK, I’m through with these ID posts on LGF. Am tired of being argued with and insulted for believing the biblical version of the origins of life.
You people may have come from monkeys, but I am a descendant of Adam and Eve.

This visceral revulsion at being linked to other members of the primate family is behind so much of the anti-evolution crowd. I don’t get it. Why do you hate our closest animal relatives?

I think it’s a wonderful, transcendent thing to realize that all the species on this planet are linked by a powerful force we’re beginning to understand - an understanding that has led to medical and scientific breakthroughs that previous generations of human beings could not even have imagined. Breakthroughs that would have seemed like magic only a century ago.

It’s a tragedy that so many people in this country look at this amazing achievement, and think: “I didn’t come from no monkey.”
