If people came from apes, then why are there still apes?

the revolution of humans from ape crap was proven to be bullshit anyway , so their is no point in trying to explain it .

Why are there still Catholics, if Protestantism broke away? Why are there still Jews, if Christianity diverged from Judaism?

A none question that crops up over and over, because religious fundamentalists keep suggesting it - in the absence of any better supported alternative theory. All that it does is highlight that the person asking the question does not understand biology.

Life diverges. Gene pools divide.

Please do a search on Google and you will find hundreds of times that we have answered this simple-minded question.

Humans and apes have the same primate ancestors just like you and all your cousins. Some of those ancient ancestors had descendants that eventualy evolved into humans and some of them evolved into apes.

By the way, taxonomically, humans are classified as one type of primate, just like the modern apes (who are different from their ancient ancestors, just like we are).

If you still don't understand: dogs evolved from some wolves but wolves still exist, right?

Sigh. If you came from your parents and grandparents, why are they still around? Actually, the modern apes are more like very distant cousins but you get the idea. I hope.

Please drop it.

Even the most retarded fundies don't ask this past the age of 5

I'm sure many creationists are not as stupid as you try to depict them.

That's like saying, if me and my brothers come from my parents, then why do my parents still exist? Or, if my and my cousins came from my grandparents, then why do my grandparents still exist?

Evolution doesn't mean the *members* of the original species change into a different species. It means the *descendants* of the original species change into a different species.

It's a really stupid question, and you should be ashamed of yourself for asking it.

Because we, along with all of the other species of modern apes, evolved out of a DIFFERENT species of apes. What we used to be no longer exists in the form that it once did. It literally became us. We diverged from each other through a thing called speciation. Most recently, we diverged from chimps about 7 million years ago.

None of the thousands of imbeciles who ask this ignorant, brainless question EVER explain why you think all other apes would magically vanish, when humans split off from them.

Did all brown-eyed humans magically vanish, when the first blue-eyed baby was born?

If you weren't an ignorant, imbecilic, lying sack of sh*t, you'd LEARN about evolution, so you, too could see that this question makes no sense at all.

When gorillas split off from the common ape ancestor, all other apes didn't magically vanish.

Just as, when you were born, all your uncles and aunts didn't magically vanish.

UC Berkeley has an Understanding Evolution website you culd use as a starting point, if you have any integrity, and really wanted to understand.

Got more sense, than to be human, too much hassle,

if you came from parents why are they still alive?
