Do you find it interesting that young earth creationists actually make an argument in favor of evolution by espousing one of their favorite arguments against evolution?

“We didn’t evolve from monkeys! It just isn’t possible!”
No, we didn’t evolve from monkeys. The evidence doesn’t suggest that we did. Scientists never said that we did. The creationists are the only ones who bring up this argument, and the fact is, they made it up in a complete void, because the similarities between humans and apes are impossible to ignore.
This is something I think most creationists would abhor,the idea that we really are related to monkeys, but their argument actually underscores it.

I find that fascinating.
