Why do some Christians feel upset when evolution suggests humans evolved from apes, contradicting their belief in divine creation?

I don't get pissed, I just don't believe you. Why do you get pissed if someone suggests we were made by a higher being?

Power and control, the need to be right, maybe just maybe there is more to it than that. Maybe there is a combination of the two or Perhaps we are from another place and/or "time" here to have an experience of how to love and accect one another. Perhaps it is all a matter of perspective?

...but evolution doesn't say we came from apes.. . It says we share a common ancestor.. Most Christians, aside from most of the brainwashed dumbasses here in the good ol' U S of A, accept evolution.

Dirt isn't so bad I suppose, they don't get angry about the monkey thing so much as it disproves their pet worldview

It's not Christians, but a vocal subset of the Bible-believing Christians. You have to have sympathy for them. They will deceive or even lie to defend a few chapters in a book that cannot explain the diversity of life on Earth. They say it was all in a box smaller than the volume of creatures it contained. I'd get cranky, too, if I had to keep supporting a position that isn't supported by the facts.
