Our common ancestor with other non- human hominids was hominoid. Ape is not a useful term in an cladistic context, it is more appropriate when referring to extant primates.

How can someone claim to have studied the scientific evidence for evolution and then refer to " the missing link'?
Stop conflating biological evolution with abiogenesis with the origin of the universe. It makes it blatantly obvious you have not got the first clue.
Still waiting for you to name one single book. I call bullshit.

Religious faith makes science impossible.
Imagine a scientist who is working on a cancer cure. He also believes in intercessionary prayer. How on earth could he conduct a clinical trial?

no-Zombie there are so many factual errors and misunderstandings in your previous post it would take me hours to explain them. Like ExB you obviously have never made the effort to study the science. You are throwing around sciency sounding phrases like we are playing creationist bingo.
The laws of thermodynamics has actually become a meme among scientists to identify a creationist who hasn't got a clue.
Ex-B - you claim to have based your rejection of evolution on a careful consideration of the evidence. Please share which books that present the evidence FOR biological evolution you have read? I'm going to keep asking until you tell me or retract your lie.

no-zombie - biological evolution is accepted by the vast majority of Christians. It does not say anything about whether or not god exists. It is only rejected by fundamentalists, most of whom could not begin to explain it.

You have not read even one single book that presents the scientific evidence for evolution have you?
Name just one.
it would take far too long to go through all me or you have studied over the last few decades.
I would have no problem sharing my library list.

I think it’s very arrogant to be like Cofty and be so sure you have found the truth of the origin of the universe
Where did I ever say that? Are you familiar with the term 'strawman'?
To be rational means to proportion our belief to the available evidence. Some things we can be very certain about.
- The earth is not flat
- The moon is not made of cheese
- Every living thing evolved from a common ancestor over millions of years
Other things we can be fairly sure about but should reserve judgement until more data is available, and many other beliefs are nothing more than personal opinion.
SBF will not even affirm that the earth is not flat. He is a fan French postmodern Marxists like Foucault who feigned radical agnosticism as a political tool when he wasn't raping little boys. Don't be fooled by faux epistemological modesty.
What is arrogant is to wilfully remain ignorant of the facts - you freely admit to having never read a science book in your life - and yet to voice strident opinions on the subject.
