I am firmly in the God used evolution camp to get us where we are, but saying we had a common ancestor with apes implies we evolved from something even lower than an ape. A worse concept in my opinion.

Sorry, your logic escapes me. God using evolution to get to human beings would necessarily have something leading up to it before God pronounced it man.

Are you saying there has or has not been an evolutionary process involved?

I am saying God used materials He previously made to make man. If you want to call that evolution fine. If you want to look at it as God building his creation the same way He built the universe you should feel better about it.

The fact that God works in stages should be familiar and not offensive to you. The real issue is random versus intelligent design. Don’t get hung up on the word.
