... I do believe that all animals including humans can adapt to situations over time, but never change drastically. That's stupid. That's why I don't believe humans came from monkeys lol. that's silly. Why ain't they adapted into humans? lol. They do share alot of DNA that humans do but so what. Every animal and human have blood. OHHHHHH.

No, no there are animals without blood.
Do you think being wrong with as many things as possible will improve your chances for your main point to be right somehow?
So, if we came from monkeys why are there still monkeys? Oooooooh, you clever clogs, that's an original thought.
(Need I really add - sarcasm?)

Well, you're putting it a bit more bluntly than I would have, but yes: that's very stupid of you.
Well, something is patently stupid here.
Monkeys still exist because there ancestors evolved into animals better and better suited to particular ecological niches. For harvesting fruit from the tree canopies of dense tropical forest, few creatures have evolved a better system than monkeys. Humans aren't the best suited to every situation.
DiamondStorm's definition of Evolution: Monkeys turn into humans.
DiamondStorm's definition of DNA: blood.
Hint: If we were actually "created" then we wouldn't share DNA with anything.
Try learning what Evolution actually states rather than making up your own definitions.
"Why ain't they adapted into humans? lol."
Why aint dirt adapted into humans. lol.
Although, points for knowing humans are animals, not vegetables or minerals.
When a species change enough, it is no longer the same species it started out as. Each step is small, but over time the steps accumulate into a "long march".
Humans did not come from monkeys, that's a different branch on the tree of life. We share a common ancestor with monkeys, though, as we do with all life-forms. We ARE apes, however. No, humans are not the end or the goal for evolution. Every species has adapted to its special niche in Nature. If humans died out tomorrow, in fifty years all other life-forms will have prospered. If bees died out tomorrow, in fifty years most fruits, flowers and other plants will have died out as well. That's how "important" we humans are...
Monkeys don't share nearly as much DNA with us, as we do with the other great apes; chimpanzees and bonobos foremost, and also Gorillas and Orangutans.
Plants have sap, which is kind of like blood. OHHHHHH.
They do share alot of DNA that humans do but so what. Every animal and human have blood.
Yeah, but not every animal has the exact same DNA mutations in the exact same places. That only happens if they inherited them from a common ancestor. That's the whole basis of paternity testing.
they try to disprove humans evolving from apes by saying every animal has blood and that blood is DNA, therefore every animal has the same DNA. I...I think I need to go lie down, my head nearly exploded from the stupid
Are you able to understand mirrors? If you are, then look in one to see if the capacity of your cranium is comparatively small. Also, if you do understand mirrors, then you might notice that your cranium may be slightly larger than say, a squirrel's.
That "OHHHHHH" was me kicking the OP in the nuts.
That said, why do we alow quotes from the dorks from Yahoo Answers. It's a Poe/Troll-fest there! You can't take anything seriously, there!
"That's why I don't believe humans came from monkeys lol. that's silly."
And you know what? evolutionary biologist agree with you, because evolutonary moels don't predict humans descend from monkeys.
What they understand that you clearly don't is that a very, very large body of evidence exists indicating human and non-human primates both descend from a common but long extinct ancestral population that was neither a human nor a monkey.
"... I do believe that all animals including humans can adapt to situations over time, but never change drastically. That's stupid."
So you believe you can walk across your kitchen, but you can't walk across the country? So you believe that wind can erode rock, but not change the rock's shape?
What's stupid is believing that small changes do not add up over time to larger changes, and that there is some barrier stopping "drastic change".
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
