I cannot imagine that the first three chapters of the book of Genesis have completely escaped your attention. Either you are astoundingly stupid or you don't realize some of us on here know the bible as well or even better than you.
Quote: When no bush of the field was yet in the land and no small plant of the field had yet sprung up—for the LORD God had not caused it to rain on the land, and there was no man to work the ground, and a mist was going up from the land and was watering the whole face of the ground—then the LORD God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature.
Genesis 2:5-7 ESV
Quote:21 So the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and while he slept took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. And the rib that the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man.
Genesis 2: 21-22 ESV
Remember according to 2 Timothy these verses I have quoted above are breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work 2 Timothy 3:16-17 ESV
Anyway it is simple to prove that we humans are related to degree to all life on earth. Because scientists have sequenced the whole human genome (not to mention along with other forms of life), so they have been able to compare human DNA to that of other forms of life. The results show that all life is descended from a common ancestor which lived around 3 billion years old. Also that the closest relations to us (humans) are Chimps, followed by other Great Apes, then Gibbons, then Old World Monkeys, then New World Monkeys, then Tarsiers, then lemurs, lorises, etc.
Both Richard Dawkins and Jerry Coyne discuss about this in their wonderful books The Greatest Show on Earth and Why Evolution is True
