So a lion and cheetah don't look alike?? They aren't the same kind of animal?...and organisms don't tend to look like the same organism that begat them?
Yes, they do, and evoluton explains why: they have a recent common ancestor (about 11 million years ago), although the cheetah is a different genus than lions, which are more closely related to tigers. leopards, and jaguars. Go back about 55 million years ago, and you can find a common ancestor for felines and canids...and they both look kind of like it, as evolution predicts. What Creationism fails to predict is that if you trace the fossil history of both groups back far enough, then you'll probably find a good candidate for a common ancestor.

I hope you don't feel like I'm picking on you. Lions and cheetahs are a different genus, they can't interbreed. Lions and tigers are the same genus (Panthera) and can produce sterile hybrids, the ligers to which you refer.
