Did man really evolve from the ape?if yes why has it stopped now?shouldn the apes still be becoming humans?
>”did man really evolve from the ape?” Well trivially, yes. Since humans *are* apes, you don’t have to go farther back than your parents to see your ape ancestors. It’s like asking if man evolved from mammals. The answer is, trivially, yes. It is not an insult to say we are apes, any more than it is an insult to say we are primates, or mammals, or vertebrates. It is just a classification. >”if yes why has it stopped now?” It has NOT stopped. Not now. Not ever. I don’t understand the people who say “good question.” Have people not heard that evolution is very, very SLOW? It’s like standing in front of an oak tree for five minutes and asking why the tree has “stopped growing.” >”shouldn’t the apes still be becoming humans?” No. Not at all. That would completely violate evolution! A species CANNOT evolve into another *existing* species. … EVER. Evolution theory does NOT teach that the modern apes are our descendants. They are not some sort of “unevolved” humans!
