If life evolved, and we came from monkies, why didnt the monkey kill the first human baby?

Go read some science books, and then come back when you have intelligent questions to ask.

At least you spelled it right this time. Guess you're evolving.

How am I supposed to take this question seriously when you can't even spell the word MONKEY!!!! There is also no such thing as an "evolutionist". Please stay in school and get an education. If you were more educated you would know that humans did not evolve from monkeys. We evolved from a common ancestor. If there is no such thing as evolution then where are all these fossils coming from? What about the dinosaurs? Is that just God's way of messing with you or what?

Srsly, I think evolution questions should require an short test to see how well educated you are first.
Evolution dictates that humans DEVELOPED from a pre-primate species. A "monkey" didn't just give birth to a human baby, there was a very slow process of change involved, no species EVER gives birth to another. The only exception is with sterile half-breeds such as Mules and Ligers.

Your question shows an abysmal lack of scientific knowledge. No monkey ever gave birth to a fully human baby. The changes came slowly over a very long time.
BTW, we were not evolved from MONKEYS. Modern apes and humans have a common ancestor.

1. Evolutionist is not a word.
2. We didn't come from monkeys. We evolved from early primates.
3. Evolution doesn't happen that quickly. We evolve very slowly, over many generations. We're evolving right now, just in such a minute way that you can't see it happening. So the early primates would not have been able to tell they were evolving into humans, either.

Sweetie, you're working backwards here.
First off, you assume that the monkey would have known what humans would turn out like. It didn't. It wouldn't have even had a concept of 'human' for a few hundred more generations. The world would probably be a better place, certainly way less polluted, if it had. ;-)
Second, and this is really important, the 'we came from monkeys' thing is just silly. Please get your information about evolution from a real source, not a fundamentalist one.

Before you ask questions, you need to do a little research into the subject. Obviously, you've been brainwashed -- by someone -- into believing that science's ideas about evolution involve a monkey giving birth to a human. No wonder you think that evolution is so ridiculous.
Check out evolution on Wikipedia. You'll learn all about the stages of evolution and all the forms of man that came before homo sapiens. Do a little research, then come back and ask another question.

Wow you really don't understand evolution. It wasn't monkies it was a common ancestor. It wasn't a human, it was a gradual change in the species, almost like turning the water in a pool up just slightly every couple of hours, it gets hotter, but to the people inside it might go unnoticed.

I didn't know that you could fit that many errors into one sentence?
I'll ignore the ridiculous question and instead point out an interesting theory I have. Apparently, Homoerectus and Neanderthals existed at the same time. My theory, of which there is no evidence, is that given human nature, and the natural competition that would come between any homoerectus and Neanderthal communities living near to each other, that the Homoerectus eventually warred with and killed off all the Neanderthals.

LOL! That's not exactly how it works. Evolution does not suggest that we were at one time monkeys. Instead, it suggests we have a common ancestor. I really wish the Christian churches would stop trying to teach science. No one's grandfather was a monkey. But that's what some Christians immediately think because that's what they've been taught to say and repeat. Just watch "Friends of God" and be astounded and disgusted.

1/ It is only those who choose not to look at evolution who would make the mistake of saying that we evolve from monkeys. We evolve from the higher order apes but not directly from monkeys.
Our ancestors did not kill us for the same reason that you would never kill your child
