Not other billion types of animals?Yet,why is there still species of monkey that still doesn't think logically?

Seriously,I don't think human are same as any other animals.Can pigs make an aeroplane?

make-'build'

I assume that atheist think that humans and animal think the same....

Well,do animal pees in toilet like human?

Because we didn't 'evolve' from monkeys. We were dropped off here from another planet by aliens and have evolved from their genotype.

Man isn't the only animal species that thinks logically or creates. It's actually been shown that other animals like chimps and dolphins may be even more logical than humans.

EDIT:
Your points are irrelevant. No animals can not make planes and cars but they've also realized they have no need for them given that some animals can travel at speeds comparable to airplanes and cars given their size and their social structure is completely different than that of humans. Your toilet argument is equally laughable, most animals do have some method of waste disposal/management.

Riddle me this, have humans EVER built anything as complex and massive as a termite hive? Can humans survive without their head? Can humans physically alter themselves within minutes in changing situations? Can humans survive under water and on land for extended periods of time? Can humans sense the vary presence of other organisms a hundred yards away? Can humans change their gender when there's a shortage of males/females AND actually propagate?

The answers are all no. For every amazing thing we can do there's an animal out there doing something equally spectacular.

Monkeys, I'm sure, can think logically in their own world.

[edit] "Seriously,I don't think human are same as any other animals.Can pigs make an aeroplane?" Well no. But that doesn't mean they aren't intelligent or that they can't think logically. When people are sad, dogs can actually sense it. They just know.

[edit] And? So what if they can't pee like humans. The fact is that they can pee. lol. And if you train them, they won't do it just anywhere. And it is the same with humans, we need to be potty trained too. Babies will pee and poo anywhere.

I bet a lot of monkeys are better at grammar

humans did NOT evolve from monkeys; they evolved from a common ancestor shared with apes. If you don't know the difference between an ape an a monkey just let me know and I'll get my 11-year old daughter to explain it to you in little words you can understand.

Logical thinking is an extremely recent development based on the more general evolutionary step of brain enlargement that enabled other thought processes such as tool-making, cognitive thinking, communication and the ability to plan ahead and anticipate events. Such thought processes are highly advantageous from an evolutionary point of view but are by no means entirely unique to humans.

There is no reason why other species could not also in time evolve similar thinking powers but if you think that one species should be continually budding off identical daughter species then you have absolutely no understanding of the principles and processes of evolution.

Pigs may not be able to make an aeroplane - for the simple reason that no evolutionary pressure has even been applied to their brains to give them the neccesary brain-power or hands. But many species use tools to help them get food, attract a mate, protect their young or themselves etc etc. Aeroplanes, computers, shoes etc etc are all just tools produced by a more highly evolved brain and the advantage of hands with opposable thumbs that can grip.

UPDATE: if you thinking peeing in a toilet defines what it is to be human then you're more poorly educated than I suspected. The majority of humans that ever lived and probably the majority living today wouldn't even recognise a toilet.

Did you mean atheists? Plural?

Anyways, as far as I know, humans would be in the extreme end of the logical thought scale, not monkeys. If you look at animals, most of them are capable of problemsolving, there are tool using birds, apes who use sign language, octopusses that solve quite complex mazes, dogs are pretty clever. Dolphins can solve logical problems....

Now, if you meant that humans are monkeys, you're mistaken. Our closest relatives would be the apes, not monkeys. You can grasp the difference quite easily as long as you remeber the big ones are apes, the small ones are monkeys. Also apes really don't have tails, monkeys usually do.

To give a few examples, Chimpanzee; large, no tail, ape. Gorilla; large, no tail, ape. Capuchine; small (about the size of a football), long tail, monkey. Get it?

Also, humans and apes share a common ancestor, our paths divrged hundreds of thousands of years ago. So, we are no way decendants of modern apes, they happen to be decendants of the same pre-human species as we are.

I hope this helped you.

I think most animals exhibit logical thought but particularly dolphins.
It would help discussions if you tried to find out something about the theory of evolution which is very interesting. As a Christian I am continually embarrassed by the ignorance that is shown on YA. What would have been your attitude to Copernicus and Galileo?
And would you have believed that Columbus was about to sail off a flat earth.
You can be a Christian and a Scientist.

Several other people have answered this question, but it actually raises another, more interesting one: if two species of human-level intelligence evolved at the same time, could they coexist, or would one be driven to extinction by the other? The only example we know of seems to indicate the latter. Modern man and Neanderthals existed at the same time, but Modern man survived and the Neanderthals died out.

i think of that that's plausible for them to be equivalent to us yet for the reason that we've particular genes and organic and organic platforms (different style of chromosomes, ect.) that are so different from most of the different animals it may well be especially impossible for them to be some thing very equivalent to us... for sure animals below the primates classification have an more advantageous risk to conform into an analogous organsm, yet they might choose to have a similar situations as we had as quickly as we developed (comparable environment, comparable desires). I additionally observed on i think of it improve into the invention channel that a genetic illness from certainly one of our ancestors brought about us to be what we are in the present day. The illness shortened the jaw bone and extra time our cranium replaced shape to the place the returned of our cranium widened making an allowance for an even bigger strategies to enhance extra time and giving us extra suitable thinking skills so as that we began to be waiting to function and make equipment and weapons to grant foodstuff and look after. If that's what occurred then they might additionally choose that comparable genetic version and that they might in all probability ought to get it from us, yet for the reason that we can not reproduce succesfully, I see no way they might inheiret that gene. So my answer is sure, some primates might desire to evolve into an analogous organism, however the probability is very slender, and it might take years for that to take place.

Monkeys were in the right place at the right time (niche wise)

If we were cognitive amphibians, you would have asked

" Atheist!Why is that only frogs evolve into logical thinking organism?

Not other billion types of animals?Yet,why is there still species of frog that still doesn't think logically?"


Get it?

Each species evolves to exploit a particular ecological niche. Humans are intelligent tool users, pigs are happy tuber diggers.

Sometimes, I think there are no species that think logically on Earth.

Human beings did not evolve from monkeys. Monkeys and human beings evolved from a common ancestor.
