Wake up, this is just a politically correct sentence for most radical creacionists. cool

Of course we are evolved from monkeys.

Ellis obviously knows what she's talking about. She is right, Zephir, and you are wrong. Monkeys are not apes, and humans are not descended from any species of monkey. Your linked article does not contradict that.

That article is very interesting, though. Those 13 million year old fossils may be from the common ancestor of humans and our great ape cousins. Good find.
