Why do apes have such striking similarities to humans?

I mean, there are videos of monkeys doing push-ups or holding hands with people so they can stand up, or being pulled up by them, etc. There are so many similarities… how can something like that be possible? I mean, religious people think we come from one god and were created, but how do you explain these similarities? No other animal is as intense.

Well, we have the same ancestors and have developed alike. Monkeys just didn’t come as far as we are. If you leave monkeys for a few million years, they may continue to develop.

There is no need for action for believers – only for you

People SIND monkeys. And that’s dry noses.

think yes we come from a God

Some think the earth is flat.

Creationists cannot prove their creation stories. It is even the opposite of the case: all the facts speak against creation by e.g. clay.

how can this be possible?

Today’s modern man and today’s monkeys have common ancestors.

In today’s view, the tribal history of man began to split up the last common ancestral population of chimpanzees and humans.

I think the Biblical Creation Report is not a scientific report. I think the intention of the authors was another one. One has to look at the context in which the creation report was created. At the time of birth, many Israelites were probably in exile in Babylon. Here they met other religions in which, for example, the stars were gods. The Biblical Creation Report now aims to show that the stars were created by the God of the Bible and thus could not be gods. The aim of the creation report is not to make a scientific explanation, but to show that the God of the Bible has created everything alone and that nature or stars are not gods.

One can also deal with natural sciences as a believer. Faith and science do not always have to contradict each other. For example, Mendel, a Catholic monk, made important discoveries in genetics. The man who set up the Big Bang theory was Catholic priest.

According to the Catholic Church, the theory of evolution is compatible with faith.

The appearance is sometimes really amazing. But the behaviour of many people often resembles the pig, the lazy or the parrot.

Just because we have a common ancestor.

Well… human apes are now our next relatives – and monkeys the next relatives in turn of the human apes;-)

… and last but not least, the species “Homo Sapiens” is actually nothing but a monkey species.
