Nobody evolved from monkeys.

I have heard many of you say this and I am getting sick of it. The theory of evolution does not state that we evolved from apes. It simply states that humans and apes have a common ancestor. This ancestor probably wasn't a monkey, but was apelike in nature. Just wanted to get that cleared up.

    • We evolved from primates. We still ARE Primates. We are the apes that walk. There's only a 2% difference in the DNA between Humans and Chimpanzees. We evolved from apes. Not likely any species of ape around today, but apes none the less. (Fun fact, a human being, male or female, has the same amount of hair as any other ape. Ours is just mostly composed of much more thin/fine "vellus hairs".) Indeed. We didn't come from apes. We still ARE apes.

      [u]Humans evolved from potatoes[/u]: Potatos grow in the ground. Carrots grow in the ground. Rabbits eat carrots Rabbits have ears Elephants have ears. Dumbo is an elephant in a movie. Movies directed by Michael Bay have explosions I have explosive diarrhea. I'm human. Therefore, potatoes are the ancient ancestor of human beings.

        NO. WERE ALL RETARDED FISH MONKEY SQUIRRELS YOU JUST DONT UNDERSTAND TRUE EVOLUTION. Jk but there's no reason for defending evolution. The people that believe it know they're right. And the people then don believe it know the evolutionists are wrong. This won't change anything. Even though it's a well worded argument. The world is just too retarded to agree on anything. Edit: I guess it not an argument, just straightening something out, I appreciate that.

      • Right? If evolution is like a tree, why do people claim that our branch sprouted from the branch next to us, instead of the trunk of the tree?
