Except, in that case, it *is* precisely a man in a gorilla suit.  Humans 
tinkering with DNA are no more unnatural than beavers building dams. The 
only way you'd actually be justified in teaching that anything discovered by 
evolution is in doubt is if there was a *supernatural* source. Aliens 
visiting and modifying the DNA doesn't mean the DNA didn't evolve. Not even 
large black rectangular aliens.
