according to evolution, White people are a little higher up on the evolution 'chain' than Black people. Is this why lots of black people choose God over monkey ancestors? How Stupid is it to believe evolution puts white people a little higher up?!

Actually, on the GENETICS level BLACK predominates.
With all the inter-racial marriages BLUE and GREEN eyes are on the way out. Brown will become the single eye color if it continues.
Tan or brown skin will become the color of everyone if it continues. There will no longer be WHITE as it is not strong enough to prevail.
This is a scientific fact and it can be demonstrated time and time again in a laboratory.
Digest that for a while.

This may be an issue of semantics, however, the theory of evolution ITSELF does not state that blacks are evolved from apes, although Darwin used the idea of evolution to argue that blacks are related to apes.
It's time we separate the idea from the man. It is not HIS theory exclusively, and it can be adapted to a less racist theory. That is the beauty of being intelligent beings... we have the ability to think and adapt.
I am a Christian who does not see evolution as an opposing view to the biblical creation but I do think that it is unfair to impose that claim on current evolutionists.

White people "evolved" to live in the colder climates as they moved away from the equator. The further North you go the more pale the inhabitants were. If you call being able to live in the cold and not being able to stand the heat a great advantage you are never really going to get evolution.
My Latino wife does have to sleep under two blankets with flannel PJ's on while I'm on top of the covers in my skives, it really is not advantageous for either of us when it comes to snuggling

White people are not higher up. There is no such thing as being "higher up" in evolution. It is just about what organisms are better fit to survive in an environment. If a white person were to go live to a black person's country (near the ecuador), they'd be more prone to skin cancer and skin damage. A black person, in the other hand, would be damaged more by snow regions.

There is no hierarchy in evolution. When people say 'more evolved' they don't know what they are talking about.
Some organisms are more complicated to our analysis than others but that doesn't make them more evolved.
The most successful organisms (the most plentiful and quickest to reproduce) include microorganisms, insects and parasites.
The idea of race is a social construct, not a biological one.

Um, no, actually, evolution doesn't make such a claim. Evolution has no concept of 'above' and 'below' or 'better' or 'worse'.
Just 'survived' and 'didnt survive'
The basis of your assertion is that evolution has levels, and that since white people came after black people, that they are somehow higher on the chain. Evolution is not, however, a chain, it is a tree, and each branch is equal.

You obviously don't know the first thing about Evolution if you believe we have monkey ancestors (i.e., evolved from monkeys).

Are you insane? No one who believes in evolution believes that any one human being is "higher" up than any one else. You are an idiot, terribly misinformed or just a trouble maker.

Actually, there is no evolutionary distinction between these two otherthan superficial melonin changes. And there isno such thing asan evolutionist; the word is scientist.

Are we supposed to take this myth about evolution as true just like you take the myths of the Bible as true?
