Well if the creationists/ID folks admit that evolution does NOT say humans evolved from apes, but rather that at some time in the past a species (the "missing link") branched off in 2 different directions - one eventually becoming apes & monkeys, the other eventually becoming hominids - then their whole argument runs out of what little steam it had to begin with.
Hardly.
I at believe in both evolutionary forces and the Almighty guiding hand of God.
The book of Genesis is, like much of the Bible, allegory. From nothing, something. From darkness, light. Then the Earth, and then the oceans. First life in the ocean, then...etc., etc. I disagree with the literalists counting back six thousand years, as what is a day to a timeless being?
When we look to the story of Adam and Eve, we find their transgression is the discovery of right and wrong - cognative thought - as what makes them different from the animals. Communication they already had, according to the Bible, but not this sense of conciousness.
And the amazing thing is that God doesn't give it to them - they take it for themselves.
My own views on Godly Intervention are that it is rare and more in a general steering fashion. God doesn't make little kids have cancer any more than God hands out winning lottery tickets. God didn't make West Africans more resistant to malaria than other people on the Earth (and when one has both of the recessive genes that allow it one get sickle cell anemia), but God make the general rules that makes DNA resilent enough to replicate and flexible enough to change.
As to the man-from-monkey statements: if the "missing link" were to exist today, it would be classified as a primate and most likely an ape. Personally I find it much easier to swallow than the part of the theory that says people came from fish and amphibians.
