      Yes, though it is thought that we didn’t exactly evolve from apes, but evolved in parralel with them from a common ancestor. Apes went one way and became the chimpanzees and gorillas etc, and we went another way and became humans!

      The theory of evolution that this is based on is one of the best tested theories ever. It would take a lot to prove it wrong.

      Yes I do. I believe that we evolved along with the apes we have today, just as John explained. The evidence for this is so great that I don’t think it will ever be disproved.
