A theory is any concept that evolves around science or facts but has no proof to back it up. =/ Also, if the evolution theory was right there would not be apes and such still. Now, humans could have been "ape" like and evolved from that but humans were always some form of or such of what we are today. Changes and such being made. There are MANY still prehistoric animals alive today that has not changed much at all... So evolution is iffy in a lot of ways... =/ But this is only my opinion... Best to let someone who knows more be able to answer you on this. I do not know much of evolution. SOrry.. >.< Could only give my opinion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32yQCAqfIjw

Human evolution is the phenotypic history of the genus Homo, including the emergence of Homo sapiens as a distinct species and as a unique category of hominids ("great apes") and mammals. The study of human evolution uses many scientific disciplines, including physical anthropology, primatology, archaeology, linguistics and genetics. The term "human" in the context of human evolution refers to the genus Homo, but studies of human evolution usually include other hominids, such as the Australopithecines, from which the genus Homo had diverged by about 2.3 to 2.4 million years ago in Africa. Scientists have estimated that humans branched off from their common ancestor with chimpanzees about 5–7 million years ago. Several species and subspecies of Homo evolved and are now extinct, introgressed or extant. Examples include Homo erectus (which inhabited Asia, Africa, and Europe) and Neanderthals (either Homo neanderthalensis or Homo sapiens neanderthalensis) (which inhabited Europe and Asia). Archaic Homo sapiens evolved between 400,000 and 250,000 years ago. I learned this in my biology class i took this off of my notes i made during class. so yes humans or in other words homosapiens did branch off from apes and chimpanzees. i might have put more information than necessary

humans and chimpanzees are both descended from an ape-like concestor. When did the lines split into human-only and chimpanzee-only lines? The answer may not be as cut and dry as you might think. The best theories based on the fossil evidence indicate that our concestor lived between 5 to 7 million years ago, at which point evolutionary forces caused one population to evolve human-like characteristics while the other line evolved more chimpanzee-like characteristics. However, new evidence has just been made available that shows by examining the human and chimpanzee genomes that human and chimpanzee ancestors diverged and then converged, before diverging for a final time less than 5 million years ago. Genetic analysis suggests that humans and chimpanzees evolved into separate species which then interbred, forming a hybrid species which then bred back into one of the parent populations. It’s not clear whether this human-chimpanzee hybrid returned to the human or the chimpanzee population, but the molecular evidence is clear that the hybridization did happen- the X chromosome has a particularly recent connection to the chimpanzee genome. This means that human-chimpanzee hybrid males would have been infertile, but the females were not, and thus returned back to the parental population, mixing chimpanzee and human genes each time. This new study by the Broad Institute in Massachusetts is scheduled to be published in Nature later this year, but the results have been made available on the Internet, so I’m sharing the scientific cutting edge with all of you.

I am sorry to say beast_lord_of _hell but there have been MANY studies that disprove it and prove their research alike and still is based on theories and is why the national institute of science will not take the study by Broad Institute in Massachusetts as fact... It is con-gesture of facts and guessing. There is no straight forward proof and the genetics found from the fossils are known as "tainted" material and are not actual good classified DNA. Even ammonia can distort dna findings... =/ Sorry to say but that research has been pushed aside by many in the science community. There has to be dead straight proof before such can be legitimately proven as with their research. MANY ancient extinct creatures have been fossilized and DO share DNA with humans. So even saying word such as concestor which was in fact was used by Dawkin who had his research proven wrong already a long time ago... =/

Hey now... =/ All are allowed to have opinions and no actual truth is known of such... = It was what he found online and was looking for facts. And I applaud that.
