Dear Hasan, 

Not all Baha'is believe that we share a common ancestor with other 
primates, but those of us who do would suggest that when Abdu'l-Baha 
spoke of man having always been man, He had in mind the Aristotilean 
conception that the essence of a thing was related to its ultimate 
purpose. In other words, man was always man in terms of what he was 
meant to become. 

warmest, Susan
