Do humans come from monkeys

Answer 1

One Contributors Opinion.

Actually we do not come from monkeys. Here are a few ways to prove we do not.

1. If you (This is kind of gross.) mated with a monkey you can't reproduce.

2. We have a creator. God!!!! Read The Bible!!!

And 3. If we were to be made from any animal we actually would be closer to dogs than monkeys.

how would humans be closer to dogs? that sounds odd...

Things to consider:

• Not even die-hard, militant evolutionist claim humans developed from monkeys. Evolution postulates that humans and all other primates descended from a common ancestor.
• Even if it were the Law of Evolution rather than the Theory, the first human was still the first.
• Evolution and Creationism are not mutually exclusive. Consider, the Creator formed the entire universe--okay, there's no way you can truly imagine everything that means, but do what you can--and in doing so made it to follow certain laws and behave in certain ways every time. Okay, that being the case, we are capable of observing the laws and behaviors and understanding then. We know for instance that adaptation and selection are fact, laws if you will. They've been proven, time and again. So, if the universe is designed to obey those laws, and we can see and understand then, it would be pretty foolish to deny.

Answer 2

Religious answer: No, God created us and everything else (Genesis ch.1). This world is a purposeful creation by God, in which all people are tested concerning their use of free-will. We possess a soul which lives on after the body dies and is held responsible for the person's actions. Anyone who is worthy can merit reward in the afterlife.

Answer 3

Evolution is the process by which humans and all other primates such as monkeys descended from a common ancestor. This has been demonstrated not only from the fossil record but also from human and primate DNA.

Answer 4

We have a resounding "yes" and a reverberating "no." Now is the time for a definitive maybe.

While circumstantial evidence points to the possibility that humans and other primates evolved from a common ancestor, this is not definitive. It is as based as much upon faith as religious creation stories. And, where detail fails in creation myths, the fact remains that until a legitimate first person account surfaces that describes the manner of God's creation, evolution is as viable as spit and mud.

So, to the question, which does not entertain evolution nor creationism. No, humans do not come from monkey.
