Do you believe that we came from apes ?

Question

and where apes came from?

Answer 1

My dad was a deck ape in the navy and he is kind of hairy and has short legs and long arms as do I.  My name should be Jim Pan Z cause I can sure see that I am not so far removed from an ape.

Answer 2

From one celled animals just like us. They shot off from bacteria with nuclei, who came from bacteria without nuclei, who probably came from ?. It gets murky after that until you get to clay seeping with organic molecules and charged with energy by the young earth. Welcome to mudland. All visitors will be expected to submit to dissolution.

Answer 3

Oh please not another humans came from monkeys question!

Just go do some science reading! Surely no matter how badly stocked your school or town or college library is there must be at least some science books or back issues of the national geographic or something?

Finally you dont "believe" scientific evidence, you "understand" it using logic and intellect.

Science Religion TWO SEPARATE THINGS.

Scientific theories are based on evidence.

Relgious Belief is based on Personal Experince of the Divine .

Surely you dont think fossils are all hoaxes or something?

Since the theory of evolution describes a progres of change that occurs to all species it doesnt necessarily deter or destroy religious belief since frankly I doubt you can or disprove the existence of God using sololy biological evidence.

We didnt come from apes. We are mutated apes!

You realise if dolphins are fully sentient they probably have debates in which some dolphin asks: did we evolve from whales?

Please go read some science books!

God will not be offended if you study logic and science as well as the Bible!

Answer 4

I believe we came from GOD.  Does that answer your question?

Answer 5

I dont fully understand evolution, but I think it means that we had a common ancestor.

Answer 6

Yes

Answer 7

Christians believe that we came from God. However, others argue that we derived from apes?

I guess no one really has hard proof regarding this question. But personally, I prefer the God theory.

Answer 8

DNA research indicates that humans did evolve up from lower primates. There's a lot more to it, but that's the basic answer.

All life on Earth shares almost identical DNA. There's millions of pieces of evidence all pointing to evolution. It takes millions of years. We are only this year's model of humanity. Each of us is a mutation, we are a mixture of our parents.

God didn't do it.

Answer 9

Apes are the members of the Hominoidea superfamily of primates, which includes humans. Under the current classification system there are two families of hominoids:

the family Hylobatidae consists of 4 genera and 13 species of gibbons, including the Lar Gibbon and the Siamang, collectively known as the "lesser apes"

the family Hominidae consisting of orangutans, gorillas, chimpanzees, and humans,[1][2] collectively known as the "great apes".

A few other primates, such as the Barbary Ape, have the word "ape" in their common names (usually to indicate lack of a tail), but they are not regarded as true apes.

Except for gorillas and most humans, all true apes are agile climbers of trees. They are best described as omnivorous, their diet consisting of fruit, grass seeds, and in most cases some quantities of meat and invertebrates—either hunted or scavenged—along with anything else available and easily digested. They are native to Africa and Asia, although humans have spread to all parts of the world.

Most ape species are rare or endangered. The chief threat to most of the endangered species is loss of tropical rainforest habitat, though some populations are further imperiled by hunting for bushmeat.

Answer 10

First off Nas just pasted information about apes into his answer which in no way even answers this question.

Supposedly proof of half-ape half-human ancestors have already been found. See http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/wo...

On a personal note evolution being proven true definitely does put a damper on religious beliefs and life after death so I do hope evolution is not true. :-)
