If man evolved from apes, why are apes still here? Wouldn't they all be man?

Yeah! Answer that one, all you Darwinian fundy monkey-lovers!

Just put down the bananas and answer!

Because not all apes evolved.

Just because you make apple pie doesn't mean there are no more apples.

I have brought up this SAME question numerous times and still have no answer.

People want to force science to dispell that there is a God and will cram that square peg into a round hole all day.

the trick is to understand that evolution is an ongoing process. Men and Apes evolved from ape like ancestors, which should probably also be called apes. Those apes do not exist in the form they did way back when. We are closer to Chimps than to other apes. Now chimps have split into 2 different subspecies...chimps and bonobos, with bonobos being the closest to us.

Are you plagiarizing an old George Carlin skit without giving credit because you're a dishonest joker who doesn't think anyone will notice or did you just happen to hear this line somewhere and your feeble mind thought a dumb joke from a pothead comedian was a brilliant piece of mind blowing philosophy to share on a conservative forum?

BTW, if man evolved from parents, why are there still parents?

We killed off any competition that came close to us in cleverness long ago.

The remaining apes are adapted, or are adapting to their shrinking habitats.

If we were gone then those who now hide from us would certainly come to town.
