If you believe in evolution, isn't that what we are now?

No thats the simplistic, erroneous, Creationist view of what people who know the facts of the reality of evolution believe.

We are closer to the chimps than any other animal. that being said, we are so many millions or years removed from them as to be incapable of hybridization, without scientific intervention.

Evolution is not somehting you believe in - it's a theory with a lot of facts and findings supporting it - so you assume it's right until somebody finds something better.

For the rest your correct - we share nearly all of our genome with chimps. I wounder if a hybrid species might even be fitter for live then we are ...

I've often wondered if we are decended from apes, why do we still have apes?
