If there was ameba, than frog and than the rabbit, how the hell on earth rabbit decided to fly and why humans cant just decide to fly one day and try hard daily until we evolve wings?

Hell, how could you possibly know I’m too heavy to fly

That's complicated, but let me make it simple for you: scientists, as much as they like to think, don't know everything. I know hundreds of them, and there are always good explanations. You'll just have to listen to all the atheists on here talk about how everything's still evolving.....blah blah. Believe what you want. Evolution isn't necessarily wrong, but it doesn't explain the beginning of life. No physicist or philosopher can do that...I've heard them try. They fail. Keep believing.

1st the monkey thing.
We did not evolve from monkeys , monkey and man have common ancestors so to speak,
Neanderthal man and modern man are related but we are not descendants of Neanderthal man.
Evolution is a process and it take a lot of time or many generations to happen.
Rabbits didn't need to fly and the ones that did became flying squirrels. Rabbits had to become faster than dogs and are.
Humans and wings:
Humans have evolved wings they just aren't attached to the body.
Evolution is a fact of life whether you believe or not.
Maybe evolution is part of gods plan?
Genesis talks of the multitude of things and so does the fossil evidence. The day spoken in the bible could be a figurative day like in the day of the roman empire or in the Victorian day but longer periods of time.
You can prove evolution if you want. It will take a lot of time and effort on your part but it has been done several times in the distant and near past.
Evolution or the science that backs it is what makes the base of the DNA science.
If you can disprove evolution you have a really good start on disproving DNA evidence and finder print evidence .
There are many who would like you to disprove evolution and would pay you a very large sum of money if you can do it.
If you can disprove evolution you will be one of the most famous and rich people in history.
Go for it!
Prove evolution wrong and I will be your slave for the rest of my life. I am not worried because I really do not believe you or anyone can prove that evolution is not real.

This makes it really obvious that you don't understand evolution.
First off, rabbits don't fly. A rabbit and a bird will share a common ancestor if you go back far enough. Really, really, really, really far.
Evolution with natural selection works in a very simple way: If the trait works well with your environment, you live longer and have more offspring, who have your genetic traits. If the trait doesn't work with your environment, you die and don't reproduce, or not as much. Therefore, your genes don't get passed on. A trait that lets you live longer to have more kids is kept. That's basically what evolution is.
If something in our environment required us to fly, and everything fell in to place, we would eventually end up with wings. However, if somehow we suddenly needed to fly to survive, we'd die out. Simple as that.
Evolution is just a process. It doesn't think. It has no plan. It's not going anywhere to serve some ultimate purpose.
Monkeys are still evolving. Everything is evolving, it's just that we don't evolve in two or three generations. It takes a frigging long time.
Also, humans did not evolve from monkeys. That's an inaccurate, misleading, layman's explanation. We share a common simian ancestor with monkeys.
Think of it as a family tree. There's some guy in New Zealand (I think) who can trace his ancestry back ten thousand years. Now, it wouldn't be at all surprising to me if it turns out that he's very very very very very very very very distantly related to someone in China. They seem to be completely different, yet they are related at the core. It's not the best example, but it sort of helps illustrate evolution.

Hi,
Technically speaking humans did not evolve from monkeys but somewhere back in time, humans and primates did have a common ancestor. Then slowly slowly humans began to evolve and apes in a parallel way but we did not directly come from gorillas and monkeys.
In other words let say there was a common ancestor X from X, Y and Z evolved. Y being 'monkeys' and Z 'humans' however Z did NOT evolve from Y.
Hope this helps :)

Monkeys are evolving, humans are evolving, all animals are evolving. The environment has changed just in the last century, and all animal life has either adapted to it (evolved) or become extinct. I've seen changes in humans just in my lifetime. They're subtle, but they're there.
You need to put down the fairy tale books and read something written by scientists. That way, you can ask questions that don't make religion look foolish.

This question AGAIN?....
Humans did NOT evolve from monkeys. Humans, monkeys, chimps, and every other simian evolved from a common primate ancestor.
Every animal on this planet is still evolving this very second. Subtle differences in DNA that are proving more prone to survival that other traits are what make a species evolve.

Thank you for proving your ignorance about evolution with this question. I'm going to have to agree with the person who said that Christians aren't banned from libraries (or using their brains). Please take the time to actually learn something about evolution before you go shooting off about it. You're just making a fool of yourself. By the way, a 3 year old would know that rabbits don't fly, and within a decade they would know how to spell amoeba (and even use proper grammar too!).

I don't know much about evolution, but I think the theory is that humans and monkeys had common ancestors, not that humans evolved from monkeys. Better ask a science teacher.

Evolution is not ontological; it is undirected. Monkeys and humans are evolving. They descended from a common ancestor that lived about 55 million years ago.

Thank you for showing again that the only people who reject evolution have no clue what it is.
Please, read a book. Christians are not barred from libraries.
Evolution is not voluntary.
Humans are too large and heavy to be able to fly.
Evolution takes thousands of generations to produce visible changes.
People write down stuff they know in books, hoping that others will read them.
Evolution is a scientific fact.

(I'm wondering if somebody lied to you about evolution on purpose)
