This is from wikipedia on the missing link.
"A popular term to designate transitional forms with is 'the missing link'. The term is especially used in the regular media, but inaccurate and confusing. This is partly because it implies that there was a single link missing to complete the picture, which now has been discovered. In reality, the continuing discovery of more and more transitional fossils is further adding to our knowledge of evolutionary transitions. The term probably arose in the 19th century where the awaited discovery of a 'missing link' between humans and 'lower' animals was considered to be the final proof of evolution."
You can also find a record of the species homo sapien's long evolution record and all the species along the way if you search "human evolution". So if you don't believe in evolution that's fine, but don't spread lies about it. I think intelligent design and creationism is hopefulness and delusion but I don't go around telling people its devil worship.
