Shut up

You are not smart enough to see that you are admitting that humans are designed - we have the dexterity to build with our hands . We didn't get our features through random unguided processes .
Monkeys also have hands like we do.. If you have noting reasonable to say pls don't Quote me..

sorry. with their 70% level of intelligence they would have come up with something. since we use hands to eat, do dolphins use hand to eat? since we use legs to walk do dolphins use legs to swim? you are so wrong for thinking every "intelligent" specie must have hands and legs lolz.
Lol they is what we call laws of nature... This dolphins use their intelligence for other stuff that their physical body allow them to do

I'm going to answer some questions that most scientists would dismiss as being silly.

Gombs:
If we evolved from monkeys, how come we still have monkeys?
We didn't just evolve from monkeys. We are monkeys. Look at your face, then look at a monkey's face. Look at your hands, then look at a monkey's hands. We still have forest dwelling, tree climbing, furry monkeys because they didn't compete directly with us as hominids did.

Like Lambanopeace's picture, what happened to those in between our evolution? Where are they? Or do you mean we just moved from monkey to man?
Each hominid was probably wiped out by the hominid that succeeded it. They were in direct competition with each because, unlike monkeys, they lived in the same places and ate and hunted similar things. The more intelligent species were more successful than the less intelligent ones and eventually drove them to extinction. Intelligence doesn't always win in nature. A deer needs speed more than it needs intelligence. Without the ability to handle tools, no amount of intelligence will help a deer against a lion. A tree monkey needs agility more than it needs intelligence, or it will fall and die. Also, intelligence is expensive. Our jaws are weak because we have smaller jaw muscles, but this leaves more space for the brain. 25% of the sugar in your blood is consumed not by your arms or legs, but by your brain. That's a lot! We are lucky that our ancestors found themselves in situations where intelligence was good for their survival. That's why we are here today.

Won't they need hands that are able to handle tools to build it? Different component makes up our body not just the brain this question you asked is not logical..

Those little mammals that build dams, did you give them hands and tools?

sorry, stop trying to limit them. you are not nature so you cant decide what they can do and what they cant do. those scientists talk nonsense many times and you take it for it being absolute truth. same thing religious people do. lock out the brain and believe even if you cant prove it. undecided

If you don't like religion , you may consider Deism

Critical elements of deist thought included:

*Rejection of religions that are based on books that claim to contain the revealed word of God.
*Rejection of religious dogma and demagogy.
*Skepticism of reports of miracles, prophecies and religious "mysteries".

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deism

Deism also offers personal relationship with God . In some cases , the relationship can be transpersonal .

Ring species alone gives 100% proof that evolution does indeed occur given enough time

He does not like organized religion! He believes and Loves God but not as seen and interpreted via scripture. He is closer to a deist but i would see him as a seeker.

The most common objection to atheism is, "if you don't believe in God, then who created us?" That's how we got there. undecided

MrMontella:

on the diagram...it is wrong...
On evolution...They became extinct


Why would they reasonably become extinct? Why did the one in the beginning and end resist extinction but those in the middle became extinct, what a dumbness! So extinction happened in the middle alone but left the beginning and the end to make sure that you are here to argue blindly. Oh my God there's nothing we won't see on nairaland
