Excuse me but I have a degree in anthropology from the 80s and NEVER ONCE did ANY of my profs constantly change the origins/relationship between humans and non-human apes. NEVER ONCE was I taught that humans came from 'monkeys'. I DID learn about the Linnean Classification system, which is something that creationists willfully ignore when they talk about biology and natural science. But you commit an even broader 'sin' in your statement by making blanket accusations of scientists who would not diminish their own research by constantly changing the focus of origins.

NOT once did an anthropologist EVER say man came from monkeys. I suggest you read scientific journals that are more current than the Scopes trial and get it through your head that frauds like Piltdown are used as a teaching tool for what NOT to do with the scientific method. Not that creationists have any kind familiarity with or competent understanding of the scientific method...but someone like you might benefit from a basic study of the Linnaean Classification system.

But were those things or similar concepts suggested to you in your high school education. I doubt that when you got to grad school they asked you to reject what you had been taught on evolution in high school

I am not making blankest statements about scientists, you will notice I use the word evolutionists
