Is the evolutionary doctrine a racist doctrine?

"Relationship"??? On what foundation is the family tree of animals built to suggest any genuine link between different species?

DNA

What solid proof exists that monkeys and humans share a common ancestor?

DNA

There is no concrete evidence;

Very very false

these claims are merely speculative and often contradict established facts, yet they are promoted as truths that should be accepted without questioning, by faith.

These are not mere "claims". These are genetic facts.

DNA has this cool property that it is inherited by off spring. This is how we can determine how closely related you and another random individual are.
It's how we know 2 people are siblings or first cousins or second cousins or more distant cousins.
It's how we know about Y-chromosome adam.
It's how we know about mitochondrial eve.
It's how we know humans and neandertals interbreed.
It's how we know humans and chimps share ancestors.
It's how we know humans and gorilla's share ancestors that are older then the ancestors of humans and chimps.

DNA is neat that way.

At least, there are some who have the decency to admit that they only believe in this "theory" because they have no other alternative that seems more "credible" to them and not because they think is been really demonstrated.

Sorry, no. Common ancestry of species is not a theory. It's a genetic fact.
Evolution theory deals with the mechanism of how evolution happens.
That species share ancestry is a fact. It's one of the many facts that the theory of evolution explains.


The confusion, or even the shamelessness of some, is to continue insisting that the evolution of species is based on direct facts.

It's not just based on facts. It IS a fact.

Beliefs on such transcendental matters as the true origin of humans and the purpose of life are not issues that should be accepted as truths because some people defend them with all the passion in the world.

This has nothing to do with "transcendental matters" or "the purpose of life" or whatever.
It instead has everything to do with cold genetic facts. DNA. It is what it is.

These issues are not resolved apologetically or by forcing others to accept them, but through conscientious and honest reasoning... something that many proponents of that theory lack.

It's a matter of accepting the facts of genetics.

PS: Who doesn't know the differences between animals and human beings? Com'on, stop wasting so much time on nonsense.
In the colloquial meaning, when we use the word "animal", we actually mean "all animals except humans".
In a biological context, when we use the word "animal", we mean all organisms belonging to the kingdom of animalia, which includes humans.

You realize your post is just projection by the person who has some "belief in such transcendental matters" You have no evidence for your claims and are reduced to denying the obvious facts of ancestry. To your claim of no relationship, the evidence is of the same quality that is used in determining paternity. It is proof beyond a reasonable doubt though you are welcome to your unreasonable doubts supported only by your denial.

:)
Gotta love the good ol' argument from incredulity....

"My evidence against this, is that I don't believe it!"

What explanation does the evolutionary doctrine give to the different human races? Does this have to do with the species of apes that populated the different regions of the earth?

In any case, in human likeness, how many different races exist among the apes that later, according to evolutionary doctrine, became the different human races?
Evolution produces variations. Depending upon the climate, location, we too have evolved differently in looks, body structure, etc. We have different languages, cultures, traditions. But we still are close enough to procreate between different people. Therefore, we are still one race. The distance between us is going to increase and at some point of time (so many million years later), we may evolve into different species.
