Re: Why do people believe they come from apes?
You know, because science.
Because observational skills?
Because of DNA knowledge?
Also, if it offends your delicate sensibilities to think you maybe share something with an Ape, you can think to yourself, actually, humanity and that ape over there shared a common ancestor at some point, and our evolutionary tracks diverged, aren't I blessed to be alive to be able to think and type and talk to all kinds of humanity on GLP?

Science is knowledge gained from observation.

I can observe apes giving birth to apes.

What you speak of is a religion.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 18554737


No, what I speak of is scientific theory is where we'll substantiated explanations of the natural world can be tested and peer challenged to see if it can incorporate facts, laws, and other theories to build knowledge over time.

You are a single human who thinks their one point perspective is all that matters. You can, in fact, test evolution with animals or insects that bread and reproduce quickly. Scientists have seen all kinds of evolution take place in front of them from fruit flies to finches on islands. Different advantages over time will change an animal population's traits and characteristics.

But if you want to observe things directly, you can directly observe DNA strands with magical devices, and see that we are more closely related to some primates than others. Or if you need even more direct, see one to one with your eyes, you can look at historical record from fossils and see the different changes to hominids over time leading to more and more human creatures.

Or you can just continue to ignore facts because that provides you with some kind of security and comfort. I don't care. What ever makes you happy.

Re: Why do people believe they come from apes?
So you think God snapped his fingers and man appeared? Where in the universe is anything like that. That is a a very antiquated child-like view of life. Everything evolved from fish. Our ears are gills until a a certain stage of the embryo. This is what Darwin discovered.


We were genetically made by aliens. They gave us some of their alien DNA. It contains ancient DNA memory. This is what seperates us from animals and why our evolutionary process was so fast.

Not sure where I backtracked to theory? you asked to clarify what I meant by science and I did?

Also not sure where I confused a theory with a fact.

I defined what I meant by science to humor your, and then provided a few places where you can observe some facts, like through DNA testing or the fossils record.

What's the answer you are looking for OP? Is this a racist or a religious thread?

Evolution is an observed fact.
The Theory of Evolution tries to explain that fact.

In science a theory does not mean "a guess" btw.

We are aquatic apes. The aquatic ape theory explains why humans have smooth hairless skin with a layer of subcutaneous fat like other sea mammals. It explains why we have superior physical dexterity.
