"If we come from monkeys, why are there still monkeys?"
This can only be said by someone who has purposely kept themselves totally ignorant or is too stupid to understand even the most basics of evolution.
I think if you ask a person on the street who isn't into religious debates or anything to do with biology they might ask that question I don't think it's so stupid.
On the other hand I do think it's pretty stupid if you are into religious debates and trying to disprove evolution by putting that question forward.
Also I think it's partly the fault of people who do believe in evolution who say we evolved from apes when I think it's more accurate to say we ARE apes who evolved from a creature that was like a monkey.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
