People did not evolve from monkeys. This is not the belief of creationists or evolutionists. Claims that people evolved from monkeys come from a popular misconception and oversimplification of the theories of human origins developed from the fossil record.
Creationist belief on the origin of man:
Monkeys are part of God's creation, just like people. It says in Genesis 2:7, "And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being." (New King James Version [NKJV]) Unlike evolutionary theory, there is no scientific evidence for creationism.
Evolutionist belief on the origin of man:
Humans are evolved from an ape-like ancestor. The evolutionary paths of man, monkeys, and other modern primates split millions of years before any of these species as we know them today existed. Our evolutionary predecessors are extinct, but these species, notably members of the genus Australopithecus are believed to be much more closely related to us than monkeys.
The exact details of the evolutionary line of humans is still debated, but monkeys are not on it.
Evolution and the world:
Nearly the entire scientific community of the world believes in Darwin's theory of Evolution, It is taught in nearly all western schools and in most middle eastern schools and nearly all Asian schools, except perhaps for religious schools. Pope John Paul II even accepted the theory of evolution although God was involved in the process.

Why did god evolve monkeys into humans?
Many scientists believe that humans and monkeys share a common ancestor, but it was not an intentional evolution by a god. Evolution is a natural process driven by genetic variations and environmental factors over millions of years.
What will be the chance of human evolution in the absence of monkey?
None. Humans are per definition both the descendants of monkeys and monkeys themselves. Had monkeys not evolved, then man could not have evolved, anymore than a grandson can exist whose grandparents did not.
Did humans evolve from a monkey?
Charles Darwin did not think that humans evolved from monkeys. Rather, he believed, based on many years of research in the fields of biology and comparative anatomy, that anatomically similar species such as humans, apes, and monkeys probably evolved, over a period of many thousands of years, from a common, ape-like ancestor, now extinct. Recent studies in biology and genetics, using techniques not available in Darwin's time, have confirmed and further clarified his theory. In order to gain a further understanding of Darwin's thinking, you might want to look up "Charles Darwin" and "Evolution" in a variety of encyclopedias, such as Wikipedia (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Darwin). High School and College textbooks of biology may also cover this topic with more or less completeness. Many fine books have also been written on this subject, including Darwin's "The Origin of Species and the Descent of Man" and the fine biographical novel, "The Origin," by Irving Stone.
How do people help monkeys?
People can help monkeys by protecting their natural habitats, avoiding feeding them human food, not keeping them as pets, and supporting conservation efforts and initiatives that aim to protect and conserve monkey species. Additionally, educating others about the importance of preserving these animals in the wild can also help promote their well-being.
One of the great differences between human cultural behavior and that of monkeys and apes is that?
human cultural behavior is much more complex and diverse. Humans have the ability to create and transmit culture through language and symbolic systems, whereas monkeys and apes primarily rely on instinct and simple learned behaviors. Humans also have the capacity for cumulative culture, where knowledge and innovations build upon one another over time.
