Those who take Darwin word for word and say that humans evolved from creatures EXACTLY like the simians of today. While I beleive that we are descended from an ape-like creature (with tails, of course!), are ancestors were not identical to Cheetah from Tarzan.

I don't think you're getting your evolution from a reputable source (cut-rate evolution will be the death of you, man!). Evolutionists all agree that man and chimps split from a common ancestor about 5 million years ago. Not one of them says that that ancestor was EXACTLY like the chimps of today.

Darwin did not think this, and neither did any significant number of his professional followers, at any time.

If evolution were true and species had ever been scientifically observed to have mutated in a positive direction, by now you should know how to spell "our."
