Did God make us or make monkeys?

Anyone grapple with this one? I sit down with an encyclopedia of the world with the brat, and come to the page which traces the evolution of man from tree jumping ape to homo sapiens. The brat looks on in wonder. I explain the process by which the monkey slowly straightened his spine, and got better stuff to do with his forearms rather than just walking around and swinging from trees and such like. I spoke about how they stopped hanging around randomly and began moving around in groups of mamma, pappa and baby and dadi and nanna in search of food and such like. "Errrr," said the brat, clearing his throat, in the way that normally signals a difficult to answer question is about to be burped out. "We all wuz munkeys?"
"Not us, but our great great great grandfathers...," said Mamma, looking frantically at said encyclopedia for further wisdom and strength to be able to tackle such questions with the conviction and elan required. "The granfaters are nod great if they wuz munkeys," came the dismissive retort. Am sure his maternal and paternal grandfathers looking on munificently from whichever part of the spiritual world they might be in, immediately put the pox on me for that ineffective reply.
Before mamma could elucidate on the concept of ancestors and move to Carl Sagan's day in the Life of Earth and the theory of evolution, and such like, the brat piped up again. "If dose munkeys dint stand up, we all wuld be walking wid r hands on d groun like the munkeys on TV." Err, that would be a yes.
"An wen dey stood up dey became peepul? Like you and me and Pappa and Nanna and Daadi."
"Yes, brat."
"Wai dey don wear klodz. Dey don feel shame shame puppy shame?"
Actually, brat, mamma perservered, as these monkey people moved to colder parts of the world, they began covering themselves with animals fur to keep warm, and then as they began growing crops like cotton they managed to make clothes. "Den the Jai Jais also wore klodz afterwuds? They were also all nangu when we were munkeys?"
Err, yes.
"But if d jai jais make us, wai dey make us frum d monkeys. And Nanna tole me that God made man and then he made lady. He dint make munkey."
Mamma gave up and moved to the more innocuous story of the dinosaurs and how a comet wiped them all out. Leaving behind only crocodiles and lizards. And sang the Chipkali ka nana hai song with a tone so firm that the brat knew that no further discussion on the evolution or creation of man was to happen in the course of the day.
Someone help me out here!!!
