If man apparently evolved from apes why are there still apes?

I don't believe in the Darwin theory. But here is an interesting question. All other animals that have evolved, their original form is extinct.

*sigh*

Man did not evolve from apes, nor does the Theory of Evolution even state that. What it does say, is that man and apes shared a common ancestor in the WAY distant past (like millions of years ago). So yes, that which they both came from is currently extinct.

Ok, but then how come we phisically advanced so much more than apes, we still lived in the same environment throught this evolution?

Why does the street you live on lead to different places, if you start at the same point (your driveway) each time?

It's the surrounding environment that causes the animals to adapt to its surrounding. One thing, is that on your driveway where going to the same place because we where in the same environment.

Men didnt evolve from apes. Even science doesnt believe that now. Now science says humans and apes share a commin ancestor but evolved along separate paths.

I totally agree with you. Personally, I think that man evolved from man, and that apes and man just share similar qualities. I don't believe that they share a common ancestry because honestly, what human would get jiggy with an ape? It doesn't make sense.

Darwin has been so misunderstood and used against God and his creation..
Darwin's book "origin" of species NEVER.. Prooved the "origin" of a SINGLE species... but it's taught in our schools... just like Columbus never discovered America but its also taught in our schools...
Micro evolution is real and is the small changes that can occur and have...
Macro evolution is not however..
Where life "some how came out of cosmic oooze...
Look at at science term called the "irreducibility complex" this negates Macro evolution and has been proven

Great question. I myself am uninformed but the way humans act sometimes we should have stayed apes. We kill, bully, beat the one's we say we love, hate curse. I am guilty of that one.
