To claim that human beings are not apes is precisely akin to claiming that Chihuahuas are not dogs because they don't look exactly like mastiffs.
When you deny the basic precepts of biological evolution (common descent, speciation, natural/sexual selection, and so forth) and do so in the face of overwhelming evidence for evolution, you're simply displaying a willful, deliberate ignorance. This is the intellectual equivalent of sticking your fingers in your ears, squinching your eyes shut, and shouting, 'Nyah, nyah, nyah, I can't hear you!!'
You've lost this one, Rev. Evolution is a fact, as little in doubt as gravity. When you claim the opposite, you look as foolish as someone doubting that gravity is real.

My beef is with "Molecule to Man" evolution.
Exactly do you know about real biochemistry, organic chemistry, and geological history that qualifies you to have any "beef"?
What would you think about someone who can barely add two and two, but claim he really has a beef about the a solution to a differential equation? And how about if the same ignoramus then cite as support some other "work" whose author also can't add two and two, and who furthermore claims he would never recognize any evidence of his own error that might ever be produced in the past, present or future?
Do you recognize the similarity between yourself and this ignoramus; and between the so called work that claims to be correct by the simple expedient of proclaim all evidence to the contrary to be inadmissible, and the aig christain bible clown site?
You are as ridiculous in this as you would be in having a "beef" with anything else that has vast substance to understand, but which you totally don't understand.
