Who is Cal Thomas to say that an omnipotent God didn't create the universe, knowing in advance that it would eventually produce humans through the process that we call Evolution?

Maybe he bases his remarks upon what is written by the omnipotent God of the Bible where it says:

"Then God said, 'Let us make man in our image, according to our likeness;" (Genesis 1:26)

Virtually every Christian (not to mention many of other faiths) would adamently disagree with the contention by evolutionists who masquerade as "believers" that God's "likeness" and "image" resemble anything close to apes

There are a number of problems with your comment.

First, not every theist is a Christian. The Christian deity is not the only god whose existence has been accepted and whose person has been worshiped throughout human history.
Second, I don't know of any theist evolutionist who claims that God's likeness or image resembles an ape.
Third, humans arguably do resemble apes -- certainly moreso than many other creatures on ths planet.
Fourth, unless you know for yourself what the God you believe in looks like, don't criticize other interpretations of his/her/His/Her/its/Its appearance.

"Then God said, 'Let us make man in our image, according to our likeness;" (Genesis 1:26)

So how did God do it? Just snap His fingers and the molecules of Man instantly appeared in place? Or did He make Man out of some matter that He already had at hand?

Like a pre-human perhaps?

By the way, the "monkey" thing is a derrogatory item thrown about by people who don't understand Evolution. Both "monkeys" and man evolved from a common species that died out millions of years ago. Man DID NOT evolve from monkeys.
