Why Monkeys - Help Needed

[Catherine Moore]

I'd like some help from the True Chistians of this forum.

I've read a few comments from the evilution loving monkey worshippers this site seems to attract (as an aside - its ironic isn't it that a site devoted to the TRUTH attracts so many supporters of evilution. Do they not have their own websites devoted to lies? God's bandwidth is surely unlimited but I imagine that part He has granted to us has limits)

But I'm distracting myself. We women do so love to prattle on.

What I didn't understand is - why is it always monkeys they think we're descended from? Why never cats or partridges or snakes? Are they getting confused because we're the same sort of basic shape as a monkey (two arms, two legs, one head)? Because, really, we're the same sort of basic shape as a frog if you want to look at it like that. Is it just that evilutionists as a group think monkeys are adorable?

I have to be honest, I find monkeys quite adorable. I like it when they smoke. But that doesn't mean I want to be descended from one!

What is is about monkeys that attracts them so much?

First of all, evolutionists do not believe that humans evolved from monkeys. They believed that we shared a common ancestor, and that at some time, some branched off and evolved into primates such as monkeys and gorillas, and the others went the other way and evolved into people. As for why they think it's monkeys, it's not just that they have two arms, two legs and a head. We share very similar bone structures and bodies.

A historical perspective is probably very important to our scientists, but what do they believe now?

And yes, thats what I said. Similar bodies - two arms, two legs, one head - and similar bone structures - two arm bones, two leg bones and one head bone.

I'm sorry, I don't know your fancy atheist words for the bones. On this forum we don't mince words or try to hide things behind fancy latin names.

You haven't answered why its always monkeys though.

You seriously think that the only thing that they share in common are two leg bones, two arm bones, and one head bone? That's not what I meant by "similar." By "similar," I was referring to almost every bone in their body.

I just did. Our bodies are nearly identical. If you want more proof, just look up some websites about evolution and read their reasoning.

Well that can't be right: how many people have tails? Makes just as much sense (i.e. none) as saying we're decended from bears or bats (neither having tails are closer to humans than monkis).

Look at the wider picture, perhaps?

Actually, have you ever wondered where your "tailbone" got it's name? It's because that's the "leftover" bit from evolving. Also, I've already said that evolutionists don't believe that we descended from monkeys; they believe that us and primates shared a common ancestor.

Well that's silly. There's a bone in your ear called the hammer. Do you think that got its name from evolving from woodworking tools? How bizarre.

My husband has tracked our ancestry back many generations. None of them were monkeys or gorillas. Each one was a full-fledged human with a divinely appointed soul, now living with Jesus in Heaven or this minute suffering in Hell.

It's called the Coccyx and it's an important attachment point for many muscles and tendons, just as God designed it. Only hateful atheist fools call it a "tailbone" because they would rather bugger monkeys than give God credit as our Creator.

And if it's "leftover", why don't some of us start to grow a tail? As an Ex-Gay, I am quite familiar with male anatomy (especially in that region) and I've never had an anonymous partner with a tail. Trust me, I would have noticed.

That's different. The bone in your ear isn't called the hammer because it evolved from a hammer. However, the bone called the tailbone is called the tailbone because it's the "stub" of where a tail used to be.

You'll have to go back a lot further than however far he's going.

Yes. To a time where nobody can say they witnessed anything and we have to take the word of scientists based on what other scientists made up and wrote down in books.
Just how gullible are you?

So scientists can name any body part whatever they want? Why believe tails are evolved but hammers aren't? I think you just believe this because someone you trust told you to believe it. Confirmation bias allows you to ignore any information that doesn't support your opinion. We, on the other hand, have the very Word of God which does not change and cannot be made up on a whim.

In the whole of the 6000 year history of humankind and earth, there has never once been a record of a monkey giving birth to a human. You'd think something this big and monumental would have been recorded by at least ONE eyewitness. The fact that there is none crushes your hypothesis.

The technical term for it is actually a "coccyx." People unofficially call it a "tailbone" because it used to function as a tail. The name is derived from the use, not the other way around.

Like you're one to talk. You read a book and refuse to believe any information that might not support it. How's that for "confirmation bias?"

Let me spell it out for you one more time: HUMANS DID NOT COME FROM MONKEYS. Humans and monkey's share a common ancestor. Even if they did come from monkeys, it wouldn't just be a monkey giving birth to a human all of a sudden. You people get angry when someone doesn't know the Bible very well; you can see why I might get a little angry when someone starts challenging evolution when the extent of their knowledge is that "humans evolved from monkeys."

Well people call sodomites "gay" even though they're not happy, so I guess anyone can call anything anything but that doesn't mean anything.

There is no information that does not support what is written in the Holy Bible. No information that is accurate, that is. Surely there is information about UFO's and the sons of Odin and what not, but that stuff isn't real.

A "common ancestor" means a relative common to both people. You can think of it like a family tree. My cousins and I have a common ancestor in that we share grandparents. My second cousins and I share common great-grandparents. And on it goes. You're suggesting that at one time this common ancestor was a monkey who gave birth to humans and presumably monkeys as well, which is why there are still monkeys in the world. They would have been siblings. Do you realize that sounds as far fetched as the mythology that tells of Romulus and Remus being raised by a she-wolf before founding the great city of Rome?

Perhaps I should word it this way so that you can understand it: there's a bone in the human body that was the stub of a tail."

Now, which do you think is more accurate: one book written 2000 years ago, or 500 years of scientific evidence that has been tested again and again?

You obviously don't understand evolution. Someone doesn't just give birth to a monkey and a human. Picture a large group of human-like animals. Some of them go off into the forest to live, while others live around the plains and near the river. Over the course of thousands of years, the animals who lived in the forest slowly evolved into primates, and the others evolved into people.
