Problems with Evolution.....
God made man in his own Image... God is not a monkey, even though some people look like a monkey

LOL, God made man accoding to his image that's why people lie, cheat, steal, are hatefull, zealous, envious, gready, don't like to be told things they don't want to hear, kill, rape, murder, maim, and treat others like crap.
Does your perfect God also have a 'Plantaris muscle' in his feet?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plantaris_muscle
One wonders, why God equipped humans with such a pointless degenerate muscle without any real function ...
... but it may make much more sense when considering that the same muscle is present in apes and prosimians, it is very strong and well developed there, and it has a very important function for these animals: Using the foot for grasping actions (important for tree dwellers)
What makes more sense in this context? That God made man in his image, or that humans and apes evolved from a common ancestor which was for a long time a tree-dweller?
@Rime:
That is actually probably typical of recognition. We recognise the differences between us and our closest relatives, yet we have difficulty with the differences between, eg, house cats and big cats, especially without indications of scale. Another good one is mongooses and weasels.

*Ahem*
Evolution quite clearly means that god DID NOT make man in his own image. This "problem" therefore does not exist.
As usual for fundies, "bravesfan1" is constructing "problems" which only arise because of his own belief system. Once you dismiss the ideology, the whole problem ceases to exist.
A similiar example from a discussion I had with a catholic fundie: Me "Sorry, I don't believe in your bible." Fundie:" Ah, and how do you explain the immaculate conception???" He just didn't get that this is not my problem, but HIS problem, and it is HIS duty to explain it. Not mine.
So you were oblivious to the obvious:
- It was a false justification to deny the fact that humans create their deities, thus, explaining why they behave like nacissist greedy humans.
- That ancient mythology may be interesting, but is not relevant today. Your frivolous ignorant attacks against evidence-based, established knowledge make you look like a fool, rejecting reality.
- You were misled by manipulators, who not only twist scripture and fail to put it into its original context, but also lie to you about science, making straw men of its discoveries to alienate you. You are putting your trust in ignorants and liars. Only science-denial creationists falsely claim that science claims that humans came from monkeys, for instance. Science is not about claims, but about observation, discovery and knowledge.
- Your problem is not a problem about evolution, but a problem of creationism, ignorance and obscurantism. It's also not a challenge to evolution, that has happened, even if you don't like it.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
