Do You Believe We Came From Monkeys?

[RWS]

Humans are apes.. Of course we have a common ancestor with other apes.

I know there are similarities but I think they are coincidental, like cats and seals both have whiskers. But cats didn't come from seals or vice a versa.

They both came from a common ancestor. The problem with creationists is that they don't even understand the theory of evolution.

Bonobos evolved into bimbos?

Totally ...

People lied though.

 

[RWS]

They lied to you as well, maybe.

Creationist theories and their corresponding religions are based on deception.

They will make you believe anything they want you to believe, and you are forced to believe it because your parents did.

Believe? No, I don't do believing.

Dogs And Bears Are Closely Related To Seals - KnowledgeNuts

Dogs, bears and seals are closely related though.

But back to believing. Chimps, Humans 96 Percent the Same, Gene Study Finds

Scientists have done a study of human and monkey genomes and found we're 96% the same.

Cats are 90% similar, cows 80% similar, mice 75%, fruit fly 60%, chickens 60%.

Monkeys are the closest to humans. But you keep believing whatever crap you found inside your head this morning.

(The entity that lied and connived is Satan. He's got people believing in relativism and a whole slew of things. I can't say he made up evolution, but look who's taken it up as their religion -- atheists.)

This is the science forum, so will stick with creation science.

Our DNA is 95-98% the same as chimps. So, yes, we are evolved from the primate family that apes also evolved from. Why is that a problem for you, for anyone? "...the ancestral population of apes that gave rise to humans, chimps, and bonobos was quite large and diverse genetically—numbering about 27,000 breeding individuals. Once the ancestors of humans split from the ancestor of bonobos and chimps more than 4 million years ago..." Four million years ago and you are concerned about this? Ridiculous.

[Esmeralda]

We're primates that developed from a common ancestor 5-7 million years ago that yes was an ape.

That is a fact....The evidence is very strong.

Not a fact, it is a theory, big difference. And if we descended from an ape, why are there still apes?

OMG

What you linked is ridiculous and nuts. They're not the same species nor related.

First, there isn't even a consensus over what animals are related.

The basic error you make is assuming we have a common relative because of Darwin. Darwin was wrong about his tree of life. It's more like separate and non-related bushes (common ancestors within the bushes or family). Darwin was wrong about a lot of his theories lol.

We share a lot of our DNA with an earthworm, too. Bottom line is take out Darwin's all the animals share a common ancestor and you have no relationship. Apes and humans didn't share a common ancestor.

If you find facts "ridiculous and nuts" then I'm sorry you can't deal with reality.

There isn't a consensus, you're right. But that's more to do with people making shit up and pretending that somehow humans are special, rather than there being consensus among those people who follow science.

No, they aren't facts or else we can all use it. You just proved me right because you agreed there isn't a consensus. Facts are such as the sky is blue, cold is the absence of heat or dark is the absence of light. Only someone who believes Darwin believes we all come from a common ancestor. You take that out and all your links turn to mush. The tree of life is based on a huge assumption and a circular argument at best. Darwin's idea of "selfish gene" behavior that drives organisms was proved incorrect. It wasn't about survival of the fittest. Besides, Darwin isn't believable anymore since he was wrong about most of his theories and he was racist. His thinking led to social Darwinism, eugenics, the holocaust and genocide. Today, with epigenetics, people are paying attention the Jean-Baptiste Lamarck again over Darwin's old ideas..

It's not a fact that our DNA is closest to monkeys? Then what it is? Wait, it's not a fact if you don't want to accept it? Come off it.

There will never be consensus because there are people who have weird agendas where they'll ignore all the evidence and peddle their crap. It doesn't help your case at all.

So, how people misused his theories, proves he's wrong? Can you not see how bad an argument that is?

Darwin might have been wrong, that isn't the point of the topic here. The point is whether we came from Monkeys.

The reality is that both monkey and humans probably came from the same source which might not have been human or monkey.

 

[RWS]

Well, actually, our DNA is closest to the chimp family. Not monkeys. Monkeys are further down the tree when comparing DNA and are not considered apes. Jus sayin... But we all had a common ancestor at some point, and I agree that monkeys did not evolve into humans.

 

[Picaro]

Well, it's clear the Democratic Party's base did.

 

[Picaro]

There is no empirical evidence humans come from a common ancestor. That's rubbish. Humans could easily have popped up anywhere, in many places; there is no basis in fact that all humans came from one single place, or even went through some long convoluted 'evolution' over zillions of years. Finding a tiny handful of bones from extinct species of apes that are kind of sort of similar to modern human bones, so small in number they will fit on most peoples' kitchen table, is not even remotely 'scientific evidence' for evolution. I know sociopaths and assorted sicko sexual deviants and emotionally retarded gimps are fanatically desperate for that to be the case, since it would pave the way for them to marry their favorite puppies or whatever in their fevered minds, but it isn't, so tough shit, morons.

Congratulations. Somebody else here is aware of Lamarck.
