Not that you're necessarily wrong with that statement, what I said was correct as well:
"Evolution encompasses changes of vastly different scales — from something as insignificant as an increase in the frequency of the gene for dark wings in beetles from one generation to the next, to something as grand as the evolution and radiation of the dinosaur lineage. These two extremes represent classic examples of micro- and macroevolution." -sciencey stuff

All human beings are brothers, sisters and cousins to each other. At some point we all share a common ancestor. All apes, including humans are cousins to each other since at some point we all share a common ancestor. All vertebrates are cousins to each other since at some point we all share a common ancestor. All living organisms on this planet are cousins to each other since at some point we all share a common ancestor. By ancestor, I mean a single organism.
The original organism developed into bacteria, fungi, plants and animals. The animals evolved into various phyla like Arthropods, Annelids, Chordates/Vertebrates, Echinoderms and others. The Vertebrates evolved into fish. Some fish evolved into amphibians which begat reptiles which begat mammals which ultimately begat humans.
That's evolution. If you believe something else you don't believe in evolution.
I don't disagree with the principle of what you're trying to say. Let me be a pedant for a moment:
I believe something else because "cousins" is not correct in the way you are using it. "Cousins" only works in the way you're using it if we use your symbolic definition for it.
