Many people reject it because it's stupid. Monkeys accidentally transforming into humans. Banana-picking monkeys gradually perfecting banana-picking skills by monkey trial-and-error, thereby changing into full-blown cathedral-building humans. It's stupid.

Well the genetic difference between a chimp and a human is about 10 times as great as between 2 very different humans.
That seems a reasonable difference to achieve in 200,000 generations. Particularly when you consider that every human has new mutations.
Consider the Woolly mammoth died out 12,000 years ago at 20 years per generation that’s only 600 generations but think how different mammoths are from modern animals.
Woah, woah, woah. Find me one evolutionary biologist who says that we came from monkeys. Just one will suffice.
Both microevolution and macroevolution have been observed in nature and in the lab. It’s impossible to refute the existence of either.
