Maybe someone could answer this for me. Man apparently went through all sorts of evolving while at the same time the ape never changed. That is something I don't get.

What's the problem? If the ape is suited for his environment, and if his environment doesn't change, the ape won't change either. Ditto for sharks. Ditto for allegators. There's no law that says every species must change into something else.

Apes have changed a lot, actually. There are roughly many differences between modern apes and X-million-year-old fossil apes as there are between modern humans and X-million-year-old hominid fossils.

It's a bit easier to get when you consider that we didn't evolve from apes. Both apes and man evolved on separate paths from something else.
