I’m satisfied with the theory that people who believe the evolution of monkey to man do so as justification for their denial of God.
Te fossil record as yet to provide a single bridge animal demonstrating transition from one creature to another. Without this there is no evidence of evolution. We know that animals change their characteristics based on disparate gene pools. Some fish of the same species may vary considerably as remote populations.
Science long ago gave up Darwin as a solid bedrock set of scientific principles. The notion of gradual change over millennium remains a decided belief. The difficulty is there is no hard evidence that monkeys became man or that fish learned to walk on land. There are no transition fossils showing these changes are linked.
