    I didn’t came from a monkey or a rib. I came from millions of years of evolution from the time the first cell was developed and reproduced itself enough times to turn into different species and through natural selection for one of them to be humans first official ancestor.

        Yes, but they’re not our main ancestors. A distant relative is. That relative was created by millions of years of natural selection.

          Monkeys are a group of animals. Our ancestors come from that group. They are classified as monkeys. All of us had monkey ancestors.

          I think you’re confusing that with the specific species of monkey that are alive today. Those are distant relatives of ours, not ancestors.
