TOL Topic of the Day - Chime In!Every day we will post a new topic and we want to get your comments on that topic. The topic could be about literally anything from the vague to the specific, important or trivial. The TOL membership can take that topic and run with it!
Read the first line of the article i posted. Its exactly like saying we came from apes. You and mori there are just spinning it - i guess he hoped i couldnt verify what i said, and when i did, then it was that they are cousins, and have a common ancestor, the same garbage answer for how we humans came from apes.
Now do you see why i rarely debate this stuff even though ive taken tons of science? After a few years it gets old, it wont matter what i say, it wont matter to me what you say, each person has to figure it out for themselves.
We can all go tit for tat all day, all year, all century long.

It would help if you knew what you were talking about.
What sort of science class did you take?

We ARE apes . . . . Modern apes (chimpanzees, gorillas, Orangutans) however are not our ancestors but distant cousins. They can't be our ancestors when they are still running around any more than Lech Wałęsa is my ancestor.
(I have polish ancestry so there's a good chance we share a fairly recent common ancestor.)
Are we related yes, are all humans related and share common ancestors, obviously. And if you go far enough back we share ancestry with living apes and then still farther back monkeys.

That's not spin, that's exactly correct. Whales evolved from groups of ungulates before they became the ungulates we know today. (they were even carnivorous)

What, you took one biology course? Did they cover evolution?
I don't know who taught you anatomy and phys but it's hard to teach it without touching on evolution. In ours we dissect cats, which have most of the same muscles, bones, nerves etc. as humans.
