I'm an agnostic about anything which I can't know empirically. Nonetheless, it is interesting that the Chimpanzee is the animal with which we share the most DNA commonality. The Whale is most closely related by DNA to the Hippo. Our ability to reason is the best tool we have to try and understand what we can about our existence. Meanwhile, a shot or two of Anejo tastes best when followed by a suck on a lime. Enjoy!

I look at those examples as God using common parts for building. You can build shelves out of 2x6 pieces of wood and you can build a house out of 2x6 pieces of wood, but nobody would come to the conclusion that shelves evolved from houses or houses evolved from shelves.

It is also interesting that the dog house shares similarities to the human house. The builder uses some of the same materials and design techniques to build each.
