Abraham vs Evolution

This comes from the 04/19/1997 Silver Spring, MD workshop. The question was, “Are we descended from apes?”

ABRAHAM: Is that which is now human an extension of that which was now ape? No. Did the human experience evolve as a result of the experience of the ape? Yes.

QUESTIONER: Is there a link between the two of them?

ABRAHAM: Vibrationally, yes. Physically, no.

No link, Abraham? Really?

The correct answer is that there is a physical link between apes and humans. In fact, the family Hominidae (aka “great apes”) includes humans, chimps, and gorillas. DNA clearly reveals that we (chimps, gorillas, humans) are all close cousins and share a common ancestor.

Abraham adds to their nonsense with this statement: "All of the species upon the planet, without exception, come forth complete and independent as perceived...You are physical embodiments of intentions that have been set forth in completion."

This suggests that chimpanzees were always chimpanzees, humans were always humans, and deer were always deer. Yet there is overwhelming evidence (DNA, fossils, bacteria) showing us that every species that exists today is a mutation of its ancestors and that they did not come forth complete and independent in any way, shape, or form. And that is a fact.
