Shawn: maybe some of you "big bang" boys do some research before making empty statement.

Worzel: simply because you guys don't bring any real facts. which means Atheists are contradicting themlves. but again its hard to explain basic thing to people who talking about **** they have no idea.

Wow dude, as mentioned a few times above,

We didn't evolve FROM monkeys, you 'tard! =D The theory of evolutions states that we most likely ~~~share a common ancestor~~~

That totally negates your question about how come we have those animals at the zoo. But since i feel like being a dick to retards, I'll try to put it in perspective for ya. ;)

There are so many kinds of dogs. You know what those are, right? They're those four legged creatures covered in fur, have tail and have an elongated nose/mouth thing on their face? Yeah, you've seen em, trust me. There are some called Huskies. And there are others called Retrievers. They share a common ancestor, but somewhere they split off into two directions. Does that mean that one of those isn't a dog?

Why does this need be repeated over and over? Evolution does not state the we came from monkeys. It states that humans and apes share a common ancestor (big difference). Think about it like this: A large mouth bass and small mouth bass are different species but are related because at one point in time, lets say a medium mouth bass, diverged into two genetic lines; one line became the large mouth bass species and the other became the small mouth bass species.

Our ancestors of 23 million years ago were an isolated population of Old World monkeys, subjected to different selection pressures and a different environment than the main population (not to mention the other species of monkeys hanging around).

Selection pressures and a changing environment, over millions of years, led to the rise of apes. Continued selection pressures, changing environment, and the occasional genetic bottleneck event, led to the genus Homo being derived from the apes. A lot of sexual selection, hundreds of thousands of generations, et voila, Homo sapiens sapiens.

We didn't come from monkeys, we share a common ancestor with apes.
(A) Millions of years ago, there was a very early life form that was neither human nor ape.
(B) That life form had descendants.
(C) Those descendants gradually evolved over millions of years.
(D) Some of those descendants eventually evolved into the apes you see today, some eventually evolved into humans.

This is the oldest question out there. Humans and monkeys have a common ancestor and the lineage split at one point, causing some to evolve into humans and some to evolve into monkeys.

If there are Americans with European ancestry, how come there are still Europeans?

first of all the big bang theory has nothing to do with biological evolution, secondly Darwinian evolution states we share a common ancestor with all other primates. different sets of genes (i.e. those which make us "human" and those which make a gorilla a "gorilla" or a baboon a "baboon") proved to be sucsessful in replicating themselves and surviving, therefore all these animals still exist to this day

can you kindly make sure you know what you are talking about and study your sides arguments? Even the creationist website below says it's a very stupid question and you shouldn't ask it. You obviously don't even know what creationism is about if you don't even read your own material. I am pretty tired of posting this website.

While it may be good to wash behind your ears, it's not recommended to wash in between them.

Actually there is absolutely no conflict with still having monkeys today... You clearly have little understanding of the theory of evolution... I don't have enough room here to fill you in on reality

Because there are many different type of primate, and the human species was one type that evolved seperately from the others.
