Question

Why do apes still exist if humans evolved from them?

Answer 1

Not all people evolved, as can be seen by some of the questions and answers here.. . (Did you really want a sensible answer or would a banana do?)

Answer 2

I think peope evolve from people and apes from apes. I do believe that over time living things become different to improve chances of survival but you can only ever get fish from fish and elephants from elephants unless you have some devine intervention or modern science of course.

Answer 3

Get an education, and you will see how silly this question actually is.

Answer 4

This is a common misconception about evolution. It is not that we came from apes, but that apes and humans might have a common ancestor somewhere down the line. The same goes with the Neandertals; they are obviously a different breed, but they're still human because they're close to our closest ancestors, and it's possible that there was crossbreeding.

Answer 5

The original apes branched out into several species, including what eventuslly became human. It's kind of like how different species of bees, etc. were developed.

Answer 6

We did not evolve from apes you dur! We evolved from fish.....don't you watch the discovery channel?

Answer 7

the apes now days are the apes who never evolved, which means they had no brain to start off wid

Answer 8

We did not evolve from apes. We share a common ancestor with apes.

Answer 9

This is actually a painfully stupid question. Every time a creationist asks it, it shows how little they understand the topic they're trying to disprove. So, for the love of goddess, please share this with your fellow Christians:. . A species becomes extinct when it cannot adapt quickly enough to a changing environment, or cannot survive its natural predators.. . A species does not just vanish into thin air just because one member of that species aquires a beneficial mutation.

Answer 10

If Christians came from Jews, why are there still Jews?
