Think what you are, by implication, asking people to believe. You are asking them to believe that tens of thousands of highly trained experts - with real jobs they can lose if discovered to be lying - are collaborating in a vast conspiracy to deceive the world into thinking that we evolved from lower forms when there is no good evidence to support this view. If you are willing to take such notions seriously, you can dismiss any well-established scientific finding.
And all this because you insist on a literal reading of the first chapter or so of Genesis, when a metaphorical one is certainly plausible, and in no way diminishes the authority of scripture.
