If so, then doesn't this kinda explain the "missing link"

hmmm... that ones a toughy! Well no she wasn't a primate but the bible doesn't say where she came from... I reckon either
a) He married his sister which was exeptable back then
b) God made more people without having it recorded

No. But Genesis 4:16-17 certainly squashes the belief that Adam and Eve were the only people on earth. Cain dwelt in the land of Nod where he found a wife. Is it obvious that if God created Adam and Eve first than he certainly didn't stop there. Also Genesis 1:27, what happened to that man and wife?

Well, since none of us were there and there's no recording of the event, no one can really say for sure, can they? Personally, I don't think she was a primate. It was probably a sister. Let's face it, Adam and Eve had more children than just Cain and Abel and Seth. Not to mention the gene pool allowed for such marriges.

Your question is based on a false assumption of evolution. Cain married a next of kin from his parents., it could have been sister or a cousin. Human DNA is distinct from primate DNA, so cross breeding is not possible. Evolutionary theory is based on unobservable and unrepeatable events, which then is pure speculation and not Science. The missing link is still missing, and will remain missing.

Since humans are primates the answer would be YES.

Cain's wife was most likely his sister, as Eve was "the mother of all living" (Genesis 3:20). She might possibly have been a niece, but she wouldn't have been any sort of monkey, as humans and monkeys are not able to reproduce.

.According to the Hebrew old testement texts, there are marks similar to ' next to the names Cane, Able and all of the men mentioned in the Old Testement that had twin sisters. Each mark denotes that a girl was born at the same time. Cane' had one twin sister and Able'' had 2 twin sisters born with him.
These sisters were very possibly part of the problem Cane had with Able. However, these sisters became the wives of Cane and Able. Cane having one wife and Able having 2. After the death of Able, Seth was born. He "inhereted" Ables wives.

Only in so far as humans are primates. She was not an ape.

Isn't a primate a Roman Catholic priest, or something? I doubt he could have married one of those...
