If evolution teaches that we are from monkey why do we still see monkey?

I see it the same; this is a misconception and a common one made by those happy to criticise the theory but not to examine that which they criticise. I also agree that as a follower of Christ I can accept evolution all the best urban

if we see in the bible in book of genesis 1:27 it is written that god created man (human being) in his own image. so you need to understand this verses god never tell he created human being in image of monkey. if you want understand monkey is in animal category its cannot transform to human. hope you understand this if you have more question feel free to ask to me.

In my opinion, the process of evolution is a process of natural revolution! It is the Mother Nature that had developed this visible world as well as the bio-sphere on this earth in its thousands of millions years of natural revolution! The evolution of humans from monkey was a very slow process like other forms of evolution, taking millions of years! Nature itself is above all religions! So we must not measure natural processes of any period of time in terms of any religious beliefs or practices of people! Thanks for this nice posting and have a good day!!

We see monkeys because not all of them wanted to evolve. Ehehe! Like the caterpillars,not all caterpillars grows and turn into a beautiful butterfly. I think that's what happened to the monkeys. Ehehe! It's their choice. I am also a Christian, and I do agree on both ways. The theory evolution and the theory creation, they are really connected to each other. If you will think who created the monkeys and evolve into human? But it doesn't mean that I really agree that human came from monkeys. There are some things that science can't explain and that only Him is the answer.

Good question headhunter. But in nature, it is not like the manufacturer recalling a defective product, or phasing out a product that no longer has the latest features. Some species do evolve from others that can no longer branch out in other directions. What seems to have happened is god has put a stub there. :) If human race ceases to develop in another way, chances are that the stub on monkey would be removed, and a new permutation and combination would be tried. Such combination would differ from what humans are, as even god would feel, been there, done that. :) I think evolution is something linked to god, just that we dont really know what that link is all about. One of the many things we dont know? :)

I will try to answer your question friend. The theory of evolution says that humans came from monkeys. Maybe because monkeys are the only animals that are really like humans like the way they react to certain things. Why Do We Still See Monkey? I think because this evolution is only picking selective kind of monkeys. This evolution is not covering all monkeys but few of them. I hope I answered your question well mister.=) PS: I don't believe in the theory of evolution by the way. I just recalled my history class back in High school.

Thank you! When I was reading the title of your discussion I was thinking exactly "what? We don't evolve from the current monkeys but from an ancient species of apes. I'm so tired of hearing that reasoning!", but you said it beforehand I agree with you that some people don't look up more information because doing some affirmations, and that is called ignorance. If people would get more information in certain matters they could really speak knowing what they're talking about. The evolution theory is well documented, so I think that it is perfectly plausible.

Things began to evolve only after God had created them. We have not evolved from monkeys. We could have evolved from their some closely created species. One kind had branched out to become human and other became monkeys. Likewise, wolf and dogs are closely related species. Their nature however is diagonally opposite. Rabbits and mouse too are closely related species. Between monkeys and us, we had developed an upright posture but monkeys did not. We had a superior mental development but monkeys did not. We have a flat face but monkeys do not have a face like ours. We have a power of articulate speech but monkeys have none. We can safely assume that we evolved more positively than monkeys did.

you know what,im also a Christian but you know why some object or not in favor of this theory is because we highly believe in God and this theory is only formulated by man so why should we believe such if the evidence is lacking, im not against this theory but we should not compare Human to Animals because its really different and i can accept that we come from monkeys
