Monkeys, Tools, and Evolutionary Fantasies
Believers in universal common descent have a rough time using the science they claim to love. They also like to slap around logic, presupposing that everything evolved — which means they believe it without evidence as a starting point. Then commence to using circular reasoning.
Another tactic they use is to suppress inconvenient evidence (the fallacy of exclusion). Because certain living things have traits in common, Darwinists say this is evidence of evolution (often using the non-answer, convergent evolution). Since apes and humans have traits in common, this is evidence of a common Designer.

Should it be surprising that humans and apes have similarities? We inhabit the same planet, have many of the same needs, and have to eat what the planet provides. This does not imply evolution any more than thinking that a tricycle evolved into a bicycle all by itself. Both imply intelligent design. Darwin’s theory, however, demands “the descent of man” by a series of accidental mutations mindlessly selected by the Stuff Happens Law. The belief sends Darwinists on quests that could be dubbed monkeyshines: evolutionists falling for their own pranks.
