Are you so ignorant of genetic coding as to suggest that simple life forms can develop into complex life forms without any sort of "instructions"? If it were possible, I'd like for you to explain how that happens.

It's called "mutation". You might do well to actually study the mechanics of evolution before proclaiming yourself an expert.

For the creationist, the knowledge that God created all life as we see it today settles the issue.

Yes, I am aware that creationists don't feel a need to do any research because they already "know" that "God did it all.

But for evolutionists, they have to deal with the lack of transitional forms in the fossil record,

What lack of transitionals?

the lack of evidence for 'ape-men,'.

What 'ape-men'?

The failure to answer the question regarding if we evolved from apes, then why are the apes still here?

Humans didn't come from ape species like the ones that we see today. Humans and currently existing apes share a common ape ancestor species which no longer exists today. Even if it did, however, it wouldn't be a problem because evolution does not require that an "older" species become extinct even when a new species branches off from it. Your question is a rephrasing of "if man came from monkeys, why are there monkeys", which is only asked by the truly ignorant who don't understand a thing about evolution.

So by dispensing with the "where did life begin?" question, evolutionists are free to invent any sort evolutionary tree.

No, they're not. It starts with a single-celled organism. The matter of where that single-celled organism originated, however, is irrelevant; if a life form did not come into existence as the offspring of a previously existing life form, then evolution does not apply.

It's called "mutation". You might do well to actually study the mechanics of evolution before proclaiming yourself an expert.

Never said I was an expert, but I do wish you would tell me how precisly that mutation thing works because when ever I've heard or seen a mutation, it has died shortly after birth. With the rare carnival side show exceptions.

What lack of transitionals?

For instance, the transitionals between ape ancestors and man, whale and hippo...

It starts with a single-celled organism.

Which just happens to contain the entire genetic code needed to populate the earth...plants, people, animals... uh huh
