Just curious, why aren't monkeys evolving into humans? And why are there still monkeys then if we evolved from them? Okay just to edit because people are being idiots which is expected but I am genuinely curious. Can someone just post either a link or give me a quick paragraph on explaining evolution? Jeez

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] WolverineWX Just curious, why aren't monkeys evolving into humans?

Humans didn't evolve directly from monkeys; if you paid attention in biology class, you'd've known that... [Edited on 05.09.2012 11:25 AM PDT]

We didn't evolve from monkeys.

Monkeys still have a niche to fill in the ecosystem. If you moved out of your parents' house, do you expect them to also find a new house?
