There are a great many Christians and Jews that would disagree with you.
It doesn't matter if they disagree with me or not, they disagree with the Bible.
Well, if you believe that we evolved from the ocean into an ape and then into a human, you sure as heck aren't a Christian or Jew.

Pope John Paul II being one of them.
“[N]ew findings lead us toward the recognition of evolution as more than a hypothesis. In fact it is remarkable that this theory has had progressively greater influence on the spirit of researchers, following a series of discoveries in different scholarly disciplines. The convergence in the results of these independent studies—which was neither planned nor sought—constitutes in itself a significant argument in favor of the theory.”
“A theory is a meta-scientific elaboration, which is distinct from, but in harmony with, the results of observation. With the help of such a theory a group of data and independent facts can be related to one another and interpreted in one comprehensive explanation. The theory proves its validity by the measure to which it can be verified. It is constantly being tested against the facts; when it can no longer explain these facts, it shows its limits and its lack of usefulness, and it must be revised.”
-- Pope John Paul II, 23 October 1996.
I also think that millions of Catholics will find it surprising to find out that the all-knowing authority, freeper Echo Talon, has pronounced that the Pope and any Catholics who believed him when he said that evolution is not incompatible with Catholicism are not really Christians!
