There is no evidence that human beings "evolved" from apes as this response very wrongly assumes. Most scientists believe that both apes and human beings share a common ancestor at least 7 million plus years ago, that was neither an ape or a human. It would be just as accurate to say that apes evolved from humans, rather than the other way around, although neither statement is scientifically accurate
You have your taxonomy confused. It would be a mistake to say that humans are descended from
modern ape species. It is not a mistake to say that the common ancestor of humans and chimpanzees was an ape.
This accepts that modern apes are distinct from ancient species and makes no assumptions about any species being "more advanced" than any other (although the foolish idea that humans are descended from modern ape species doesn't make the latter assumption either).
And of course there is no scientific evidence that God has created any life whatsoever.
