">>>If man evolved from apes, why are apes still here? Wouldn't they all be man?>>>
I have brought up this SAME question numerous times and still have no answer. "
You are assuming that man is the "end goal" of evolution. Two genera (ex: australopithicus, pan) no matter how closely related would never end up evolving in to the same descendant species.
Sorry to nitpick, but either an Australopithecine (or a species from a closely related genus, eg. Ardipithecus) is almost certainly the common ancestor of both Homo and Pan.

I am not. I assuming that man is the only species that continues to grow intellectually, while other species remain primitive.
