I think you've highlighted a common problem, DL. It seems all too easy to confuse the evidence of a common ancestor with the mistaken notion that man evolved directly from apes, but whether common ancestry can be proved beyond a doubt isn't really the point anyway. That evolution occurs is an observable fact. Genetic commonalities are a fact. Where the confusion begins (for some) is the point at which science becomes theory. That we have a common ancestor is theory based upon observable facts and empirical evidence; it is scientific [i]theory[/i]. Creationism is a theory ([small]as is FSM[/small]) but it simply isn't [i]scientific[/i]. This is the crux of the debate for me, and everything else is hot air.
