Man didn't evolve from apes because man IS AN APE! Ninety nine percent of
our DNA is the same as a chimps. The "missing link" discussion is 19th
century garbage. The lineage between primate ancestors and modern apes and
humans is well know and described in the scientific literature if you care
to look.

The bible is pure bunk written by primitive people with no clue of science
nor any way to discover it. They invented god in man's image. Or, is it in
an apes image!
