Confucianism teaches that human evolution exists, rather than creationism. There is a highly optimistic view on human nature, that human beings are teachable and improvable.
Biological anthropologists are mainly interested in studying human evolution, genetics, variation in biological traits, and how humans have adapted to different environments. They investigate how biological factors have influenced the development of humans as a species and how they interact with cultural and environmental factors.

The evolution of humans is the concept that humans evolved from the same ancestors as apes and monkeys. Human evolution is the part of biological evolution concerning the emergence of humans as a distinct species. It is the subject of a broad science that seeks to understand and describe how this change and development occurred. The study of human evolution encompasses many scientific disciplines, most notably biological-anthropology, linguistics and genetics. The term "human", in the context of human evolution, refers to the genus homo, but studies of human evolution usually include other hominini, such as the australopithecine.
