Why do Christians never get asked about their "missing-link"?

How can we be sure that somebody is one of God's children, a descendant of Adam&Eve andsoforth?

What if they are not human, but something entirely different?



"Listen, I'm not accusing you of being inhuman or an unholy aberration from God's creation, no Sir. All I'm asking is you to provide proof of the missing link that establishes your lineage from your self backwards to Adam&Eve. Clearing up those pesky missing links in your documentation will remove those ugly rumors that your ancestors were insect-eating, shit-flinging hairy rodents."

Interesting that zero of his contemporaries wrote anything about him when he allegedly walked the earth.

Someday (hopefully soon) the majority of humanity will realize that the whole of religion was simply made up to make people feel better, behave better, and give them a sense of understanding their confusing world.
