Darwin's Theory

My 9th Grade teacher in High School (Mr. Plumber) always would give me a bad time about the theory of evolution.  He knew I was Mormon and knew my beliefs.  He purposely did this just to get a rise out of me.  We would go around and around on this subject.  Unfortunately I had to take this class from him twice (Biology).  The first time was 7th hour, last class of the the day.  We called it the Zoo hour, because no one in that class could pay attention and listen.  I wasn't the only one who had to repeat the class.  Anyway, the second I took it I got straight A's.  

The point I am trying to make is, looking at my grandson, Maverick and all of these contortions he can move his body into, it would almost make sense that we did come from apes.  He looks like such a little monkey when he can put his legs up able his head, and eat his toes and all of those cute things.  Of course we have seen proof that Becca can do that too.  If only we as adults could do those things.  Unfortunately when arthritis sets in and all that old age stuff starts getting to us its over.  Did Darwin's Theory include arthritis?
