QuoteModern apes are our cousins. We don't give birth to apes for the same reason whales don't give birth to carnivorous goats (that's what whales evolved from).
Actually it was cows, or are those just the dolphins? :?

No, it wasn't cows. All cetaceans (whales, dolphins, etc) descended from meat-eating creatures with hooves, related to ungulates (the family that includes goats and cows). The closest fossilized non-cetacean relative paleontologists have found of the cetacean family is Andrewsarchus Mongoliensis, which was also the largest mammalian carnivore to ever live on land. It's head took up a third of it's body-length, mostly because of the huge jaws that it evolved to crack open the bones of dead animals and the shells of turtles and shellfish. Though it was the smaller pakicetids that became the whale family. As andrewsarchus' ancestors and close genetic relatives spent more and more time close to the sea, the family line eventually split off into the ambulocetus family, which were basically big furry alligators with webbed toes that swam like otters. This line split off and eventually the line that includes modern whales popped up.

See, evolution isn't like a ladder. It isn't just one being transitioning into another, in a linear progression. It's like a family tree, and because of this all life-forms on earth are related, even going back to plants and bacteria.

Well done. Excellent comeback. You certainly put me in my place.

Where did you get the idea that I'm British though? Have I ever said I am? No, I haven't.
Do you assume I'm British because I talk intelligently?
That would be a pretty ignorant assumption. There are plenty of non-Brittish folks who don't type like 5 year olds and there are plenty of Britons that do.

TheTerror

nah um I saw somthing you said and it sounded like a word that a british would use
so if you not a brit then what are then if you don't mind me asking
