My friend got me thinking. So different species can't reproduce with each other, right? But different familys of animals that are the same species (Lions, tigers, cats, cougars) can reproduce with each other and have offspring(ligers, mules).
So if monkeys and humans are of the same species, which some people are trying to prove, couldn't someone have a baby with a monkey? It could be like what they do with surrogate mothers, they take the "fertizlizer" and insert it into the mother, fertilizing the eggs. So then if the baby lives, wouldn't that mean humans and monkeys were of the same species?

Not necessarily. While we are related to monkeys, we aren't closely related enough to interbreed at all. Mules are sterile, I think maybe ligers too. If neanderthals were still around, we could interbreed with them, but I don't think so with monkeys and apes. I dunno, maybe a chimp, but such an experiment would be deemed unethical. *grins evilly* Wouldn't it be cool though? Have a bunch of human/ape minions to conquer all, TO DESTROY THE WORLD!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!!! Ahem...

yeah. Planet of the apes all over again O__o I don't believe we came from monkeys. For one I'm a Christian and I absolutely lurf the creation story. For me, it makes sense. The the big bang theory is poop. If the earth was created out of a ball of stuff and it sploded when nothing else was there, how did the big ball get there? I've asked the same of God at times. "If he was there when nothing was there, how did he get there?" "Maybe he created himself." "Or herself." "OOoooohhhh..." "Think about that." XD No, just kidding. Too much Family Guy for Raven! But seriously, God just makes more sense to feeble minded, Ravenmaster. *drool*

(adds something else.) And if we came from monkeys, then adam was a monkey and eve was a monkey, and down the line, we all got dumb, but then evolved and made speech so we think monkeys are just weird animals who throw poo at you. same with the big bang theory. God created the ball, and in seven days the ball created the heavens and the earth.

That's another thing my friends and I talked about. Mankind could've been really smart, but instead we all became somewhat retarded.

mankind was really smart! Think how much you could learn in the 900 years some people lived back in biblical times! but yeah. Now we only live the maximum of 100 or some years and durring that time we are dumb babies, dumb toddlers, retarded teens, 20 year old partyers, creepy middle aged people, then we have our mid-life crisis, then we're old and miserable but have lovable grandchildren, then we die and some hope, a horrible horrible death that people will remember for a while.

You just made me a bit depressed XD.
Yeah, mankind was really smart, but if the whole Adam and Eve thing was true, mankind had the potential to become a lot smarter.

You're trying to turn two opposing theories into one big, hairy one. You're saying that God created monkeys, which evolved into humans. It's like Darwin and Jesus united.
