By the way, my geneology does not show anything resembling an ape in it.

Sure it does.

If I was related to an ape I am sure that it should show up.

It does -- you (and all humans) are *still* apes: You are an ape.

If you disagree, feel free to support your belief by stating a set of characteristic features which delineate the ape family, which humans do not also share.

"Sure it does." - Ichneumon

Actually I understand that 50% of your genes resemble a banana. But that is equally applicable to common design as common descent. It in no way proves common descent.

The evolutionist's claim of 98% identical to a chimp was false. As you don't even share that much with your parents.

The key question is, not what percent is identical, but rather, how many changes must occur to be transformed from one to another. The number is huge and is not likely to have happened by chance or by natural selection alone.

Just because an airplane flies and a bird flies doesn't make them of the same species. And by the way, a characteristic that apes and man don't share? Speech. And another: A brain which knows right from wrong. And another: Humans have souls
