John, there are a number of free online dictionaries which are readily available...
Racist theories about members of the human race may be racially motivated.
Racial theories about members of the human race may be racist.
Evolutionist theories about the origins and ancestry of the human race may be both racially motivated and racist.
Neo-Darwinist theories about the evolution of members of the human race from ancestors of African apes are both racial theories and racist because they purposefully and intentionally identify and classify certain members of the human race as the immediate descendents of non-human primates of African ancestry and descent. |

Not "certain" members, John, ALL members. We are ALL decendents of non-human primates of African ancestry. Every last one of us. |

"Calling us all apes is racist? I assure you, we're all equally apes."
Calling any member of the human race an ape, in accordance with the tenets of theoretical evolutionism, is a form of scientific racism.
"So the racism is in singling out the European theory, as opposed to the Chinese, Egyptian, or Aborigine theory?"
That's just one aspect of the scientific racism inherent in theoretical evolutionism. There are so many other aspects of racism inherent in theories of human evolution from primordial ancestors of African apes that it boggles the mind.
"And the fact that this one European theory just so happens to fit the facts better than any other is irrelevent?"
No. The claim of theoretical superiority and supremacy, based on the African "evidence," is both pertinent and relevent to the charge that it is race-based, Afrocentric and racist. |

The dino=bird theory of evolution is just as bad as the ape=man theory since there is no fossilized evidence of either. The important thing to remember about theoretical evolutionism is that extinct species of dinosaurs, birds, apes and humans have no civil rights, but living members of the current human race do.
Any creationist can file a civil lawsuit against theoretical racism being taught in public schools. Whether they eventually win their case or not will depend on how many similar lawsuits have been filed. |

Take it to court and call the press. Please! I could use the laugh.

Does anyone here believe the scripture? And if so, maybe you should read Genesis one more time! 
Of course it is possible that humans didn't "evolve" from ape-like ancestors!
In real science, anything is possible, even the possibility that the Genesis account of creation is literally true.
Anti-biblical evolutionists, of course, will staunchly and naturally deny that this possibilty even exists. |

Actually, no. Creationism has been falsified by several independent lines of evidence. Once something is falsified, it cannot be true.
