If we evolved from apes, then someone still needs to explain the massively dramatic changes that occurred in just the last couple of hundred thousand years, and I think it's more like probably less than 100,000 years. In that time, natural selection would normally cause some changes/improvements, but nothing in the fossil record of any species of any kind, shows the breathtaking acceleration of this process, on just our species, in the last nanosecond (in "evolutionary" years.)

Actually I think it's more like 2 million years - horses have gone through similar changes, losing toes etc. But they are still hairy all over. Or maybe eohippus or whatever they call it these days was a naked proto-horse.
Anyway, there seems to be a common idea that God really really likes people. Maybe He likes the great apes just as much; what does the Bible say on the subject?
If God loves me even though I'm the slime flavor-of-the-millenial-week, arisen from the Primordial Soup, isn't that just as cool as the whole God-loves-the-people-he-made-from-clay? God has time to watch things develop, so much time that giving things a push isn't necessary.
P.S. I can't figure out why I have nipples.
