If we evolved from apes are still around and the homoerectice isn't?

Question

If we evolved from apes are still around and the homoerectice isn't?

Answer 1

Because it is a lie. Evolution is not true. If Evolutionist would

actually consider the evidence for creation, they might believe it. 90% of scientist are Athiest, what can you expect?

Answer 2

BUt you see there are no proofs we evolved from the apes, it's only a therory Darwin found out.

Answer 3

what?

Answer 4

It's been theorized that Homosapien-sapien was more of a generalist with their resource utilization, and Homoerectus could have been more of a specialist, and thus when the environment changed, they couldn't adapt very well, and died out. Though this is just one theory amongst many.

Answer 5

Are you saying if we evolved from monkeys why are they still around? If you are they are still around because it is not this type of ape that we evolved from - we did this at school.

Answer 6

That is because Homo sapien evolved from Homo erectus. Below the neck sapien & erectus are almost identical & debate exists as to which species some later erectus or early sapiens belong. The erectus was slightly taller than modern sapien & slightly more robust than the average sapien... built more for running.

Now as for the ape part, we are basically apes, but classified as Homo in the scientific world because we are bipedal & make tools.  This is an arbitrary classification, but necessary because of the uninformed attitude of most of the public. Much is not known about the ancestor of both Chimp & Homo, but recent discoveries suggest it "may" have been bipedal rather than a knuckle walker as is the chimp.

Creationists tend to decry evolution because "all" is not known yet, but the evidence is strong enough to convict, even in a court of law. Creationism has absolutely no evidence to support the view but that doesn't stop them from ridiculing any view but their own.

Answer 7

no, that's incorect. Us and apes evolved from a common ancestor.

Do you really not understand evolution? one of these ancestors' DNA mutated when it was conceived, taking it a step closer to humanity. this branch then mutated, eventualy into humans. all the other creatures stayed the same, except the few who interbred with the human-to-be line?

no proof? apart from our 99.8% similar dna, and great physial similarity?

Answer 8

No evolutionist has ever said that we evolved from apes.

Answer 9

Put succinctly, we have not 'evolved from apes'. Rather, apes and humans have evolved from a common ancestor.

In fact, chimpanzees (that is, genus Pan - living and extinct species) and humans (that is, genus Homo - living and extinct species) have evolved from a common ancestor perhaps 5 million years BP (Before Present). Humans and chimpanzees, that is Hominini, diverged from Homininae (including gorillas), from Hominidae (including orangutans), from Hominoidea (including gibbons) and from Primates (including lemurs and monkeys) at successively earlier times.

Homo Erectus evolved into Homo Sapiens and then Homo Sapiens Sapiens. Much later we got the Bible!
