Rant done....(although it seems to be a repetitive one as fundies never do the research...)

you're right, we do share a common ancestor with apes, but we actually did evolve from monkeys, because they were one of the first primates. And we evolved from fish, because millions of years ago fish and other sea creatures were the only animals that occupied the earth, before they eventually evolved to be able to live on land. And because the first land animals were reptiles and amphibians, one could say we evolved from them too. Think of it this way, reptiles and mammals share a common ancestor but that ancestor had to have been a sea dwelling creature.
