Monkey's Uncle?

Monkey's Uncle?
Matthew: 13
16: But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
17: For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them. (KJV)
When I was in school they had these little charts with monkeys "growing" into a modern man. They started with a little one and proceeded to a larger one and they got bigger and more and more "manlike" until you had a modern man just like one of us. They had very interesting, educated and scientific sounding names for these and called them my "ancestors." As time has unfolded however and each of these so called ancestors of ours has been more closely examined, they have been found to be out and out frauds or fakes: All of them. From the list of these so called "monkey uncles" of ours, there is none that can be in any way 'linked' to human development. For one thing, the theory of evolution has been disproved or found to be incorrect in general but the evidence for human evolution have been found to not exist at all.
There was a recent attempt to justify the so called Neanderthal and add him to the list again, but when one looks at the evidence, the truth becomes rather clear. The scientist's claim to have gotten their hands on the DNA of one of these creatures and found that it is a monkey and could not be in the "line" of humans. This is no surprise to me! There are many who have real problems with the way this test was done, but for the sake of time and space, let's just say that they have done what they say they have done. Does this DNA prove the evolution of man? Hardly!
I have heard many accounts of the way these bones, and they are bones and not fossils, were collected and when one hears the manner in which these were gathered, it is very difficult to justify the conclusions they have drawn. These bones which the scientist now admit are monkeys were found with many stone tools in the same area. This sounds very convincing when they say that these creatures made and used these tools and were therefore a stage of evolution. What they do not tell anyone is that there were fully developed, modern human skulls and bones found in the exact same place! What you have is a collection of bones, some being these extinct monkeys and some being modern human beings and to support their theory, the scientist say that the tools were made and used by the monkeys! Doesn't make any sense to me. Even if these tools were found in the monkey's hand, would it not be more logical to assume that a man placed the tool in the dead monkey's hand? There are people who worship monkeys to this very day. They bury these monkeys in royal robes and with tools and mirrors and much jewelry. How smart would we call someone who, a hundred years from now dug one of these monkeys up and thought that the monkey had made all of these things for himself?
Genesis 1
27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
Whose image are the scientist trying to 'recreate' man in?
The phrase to make a monkeys uncle of someone means to fool them and make it clear that they are not very smart. Let's not let this happen to us!
