I completely agree with you. It's much more interesting to think about the processes that lead up to the present. It really gives humanity some kind of merit, I think, rather than just being some beast created by some selfish deity.

But I won't pretend to know all the answers to the problem of existence.

Anyway, I'm just trying to cheer you up a little. Embrace the ape within! Speaking of which, I'm almost out of bananas...
