Atheist Frank Zindler said,

"The most devastating thing though that biology did to Christianity was the discovery of biological evolution. Now that we know that Adam and Eve never were real people the central myth of Christianity is destroyed. If there never was an Adam and Eve there never was an original sin. If there never was an original sin there is no need of salvation. If there is no need of salvation there is no need of a saviour. And I submit that puts Jesus, historical or otherwise, into the ranks of the unemployed. I think that evolution is absolutely the death knell of Christianity."

I remember reading, about 15 or 20 years ago, an article by Zindler about the possibility of cross-breeding humans with apes (probably chimps, but I don't recall). He volunteered to be the sperm-donor (the ape-bitch being artificially inseminated, of course) for the first "monkey-man", and even wanted to raise the "baby" himself! :thumbsup Maybe the result would make a better world leader than the ones we now have.
