If randomization of genes or chemicals is so apparent on mutations, couldn't it be that monkeys are just an unwanted mutation of past humans ??! and then the tree of monkeys (mutated healthy in-the-past humans before the mutation) continued along side human family tree but was treated as an animal and since then its level of life/thinking ...etc had degrade ? this could be a debunk of Darwin's theory ... just logically speculating.
