 I don't.

 There's no missing link. DNA studies are ever more conclusively showing through mitochondrial DNA that it is nearly impossible for humans to have evolved from any primate species. Plus that fact that macro-evolution (microbes to man) is very hard to do without at least some kind of outside order being imposed, which I personally find to be less likely than humans just being created as humans from the beginning.  
 Any resources? Most of what I find points in the opposite direction with respect to the mitochondrial DNA claim. 
 I'll try to dig up stuff, but, that's really low priority for me at the moment.
