I love how creationism is so often justified on the basis of total ignorance.

Parrots can't talk human language - they simply mimic the sounds they hear. And they do that because they have evolved to do so - mimicry is used as a means of communication, primarily to attract mates. The best mimics attract the mates and pass on their genes for mimicry to the next generation.

No animal is any less or more evolved than any other and to say so indicates a fundamental lack of understanding of evolution. Every living species shares the same ultimate common ancestor and the fact that it is living today indicates that:-

(a) it has been evolving just as long as any other; and

(b) is fully adapted to its present environment otherwise it wouldn't be alive
