if humans evolved from monkeys whya re there still monkeys

OpenStudy (secret-ninja):

Well, evolution is not fact, it hasn't been proven. To me, there are still monkeys because people didn't evolve from them. For me, God created it all. That way, nothing really "evolved". It is my belief.

OpenStudy (bibby):

It's a fact. That isn't how science works. There's a common ancestor from which we both evolved from. You can't just ignore the facts, the topological records, etc. and say I don't believe it

OpenStudy (frostbite):

Also the question you ask is kinda like this: If the US were colonized by the British, why do we still have England?

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

LAUGHING OUT LOUD

OpenStudy (bibby):

the burden of proof lies on you @Frostbite Why DO we still have england

OpenStudy (secret-ninja):

That is a good point Frostbite. Also, you can believe what you want, and so can I . I dont believe in evolution because it is an opinion.

OpenStudy (frostbite):

Sorry I am to busy being amused with noncompoop. :)

OpenStudy (secret-ninja):

XD oh nin you never change. :]

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

what makes evolution an opinion?

OpenStudy (secret-ninja):

That some people think its real and others don't. Also, there hasn't been much proof.

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

the burden of proof is for those who claim that it is true, correct?

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

so what "proof" you've encountered so far?

OpenStudy (frostbite):

So why do we have monkeys. Just because a specie is evolved from an ancestor does not necessarily imply extinction. Not the biggest evolution biologist but I'm kinda sure that if I mutate my cell culture the previous culture won't just die like a snap from god (or being hit by a lightning)

OpenStudy (secret-ninja):

I just don't believe it, period. We are all entitled to our own thoughts, opinions, and beliefs. I have to get back to my school, I am kind of behind on work. And I have all the proof and faith I need.

OpenStudy (frostbite):

In that case. I want to fast evolve human. All humans most die! You see the picture?

OpenStudy (frostbite):

nin you are the evolution biologist, enlighten us with your words.

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

carry on, I am enjoying so far I am not here to educate at the moment

OpenStudy (shrutipande9):

i support frostbite's explanation!!! evolution doesnt mean extinction of the original one...it is just gradual change....this doesnt mean the whole population is changing...probably only a small group out of the whole species population started undergoing adaptations which eventully led to evolution...so thus we hv 2 species...

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

1. Facts are true whether or not you believe it 2. http://cdn.funnymemes.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Dog-memes-If-We-Evolved-From-Wolves.jpg lol

OpenStudy (bibby):

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Haha, I know :).
