Of course humans aren't apes. DUH!Deceptive sophistry. The common ancestor between humans and chimps was a primate, or in the common vernacular, an ape.

Ah, but the Darwin Fundies (DFs) seem to spend 99% of their time on these threads trying to score points on the pedantic peripherals. It makes them feel like they're "winning" without wading into the waters of the actual scientific claims.
