Were we once an Ape, made from God, or just a Chemical Reaction???? help plz???lol

Question

im rlly cofnused my friend started asking me so wat do u belive u once were ........and that got me to thinking wat do i believe?????????? which one is right.... im so confused by these questions and i dont hav any answers.............. i need help lol

Answer 1

Just like animals were animals, fish were fish etc same way humans were humans.Don't confuse yourself.

Answer 2

i believe in evolving but it really all depends n your philosophy on life.  

Answer 3

There is so much debate about this subject, but really no one knows.  No one here today was there.  I believe in a creator.  I also believe that a lot of the bible is parables.  We didn't come up with the calender we use today until Julius Cesar made it up, way before the Old Testament (where the creation story is if you aren't Christian).  Therefore, it's entirely possible the world was created in seven "days", days meaning one million years.  We don't know.  Scientific evidence and the bible show that we (humans) came last.  So I say we can count on that.  Therefore, I believe we evolved from something, most likely an ape.  But I believe in creation in the sense that there was a plan for how we would evolve and such.  

Answer 4

Why does it have to be an "either/or" situation?

We were made from G-d, through an incredibly complex series of biochemical processes that over the course of billions of years evolved into the life form called homo sapiens (modern humans).

Humans were never once apes, of course.  We and the other members of the primate family once had a common ancestor on the evolutionary family tree several million years ago, but we long ago embarked on our own evolutionary path, and the various ape species went their different ways to become who and what they are today.  (And lets not forget the other human species that became extinct before us -- australopithecus, and Neanderthals, and so on.)

Answer 5

The chemical reaction took place first, which led to the ape, which led to us. To believe in some magic guy up in the sky is just plain crazy.

Answer 6

I would love to answer your question but I don't think you know enough about EVOLUTION and ANTHROPOLOGY to understand the answer.  You really need to do some independent study rather than just tossing out a few buzz words that don't ever match up... sorry.

Answer 7

I want you to rule out all of it and just think for a moment and go one by one... "We were once apes" can't be true, because there are still apes in this world. And you can't use the natural selection because there would be an "in between" ape and human. Per say a human with a monkey tail etc. NOW SECONDLY, a "Chemical Reaction". Well thats just stupid. Its just what scientists like to believe because they don't have any other explanation. Okay, if the atom is a theory and the Big Bang is a theory and its not a law, then how can you believe it? Take a look at yourself.. do you honestly believe that with all the thought processes, civilizations, complexity of the body was started by universe gases and they just happened to form up to make bacteria? WHERE DID THE GASES COME FROM?! Plus, if you go about believing in evolution and science like that, your basically saying to yourself, "Theres no point in living life because all we do is die and we have no thought or sense after we die." So why not kill yourself right now if all we do is die? Honestly, how can anyone go about without hope of an after life? How can you just go on with life's hardest struggles knowing that in the end, your just gonna rot in a grave with no hope for any form of spiritual after life? THAT IS WHY PEOPLE BELIEVE IN GOD! Because, wouldn't it be better to go somewhere and be able to FEEL and THINK and actually COMMUNICATE with others after you die instead of just sitting in a grave without any thought? Atheists and evolutionists are truly a sad people.

Answer 8

God is supposed to have made us in his own image and likeness; so I dont think God is an ape. Further more , if we evolved from apes..why do we still have apes?? I think we humans are a different species of life on earth.

Apparently we are composed of chemicals which are found in the earth....its putting it all together which is the clever bit!!

Were we once a piece of jelly-like substance which was nurtured by the sun et cetera and became human?? who knows ?

Answer 9

you want us to tell you what you believe?  quite silly, don't you think?  and putting lol in there makes matters worse.

Answer 10

lol i just dont believe you lol

Answer 11

Well, I'm a Christian so I believe that humans were created by God. Being told that humans were created by tons of chemical reactions sounds really impossible. It would've taken billions and billions of years for those chemical reactions to become animals and plants and humans, etc...

Also, there was this movie that came out last year or something and it was called "Expelled" and it was about a man who goes on a search to find the truth about how man came about. In the movie he met with many professors or smart people and talked to them about what they believed. Now many of these professors or scientists were "expelled" from their job because their research and teachings leaned toward there being a creator. And when the man met with evolutionists he found their answers to contradict stuff they said. My answer is not suppose to persuade you into thinking that there is a God or whatever but it's what I believe in. If you are still confused maybe you should watch the movie.

Hope I helped =)
