'And I also don't actually believe we descended from apes.'

No David, we DIDN'T descend from apes; we had our own 'twig of evolution', which was along the same 'branch' as apes.

Think of evolution as a tree, with a common root at the base, a trunk, branches and twigs.

TBH, I also consider that scientists are pretty fallible human beings, and have no concept that we literally might have "appeared" from nowhere but the Divine. For I have the sense that the miraculous is real, and a real part of existence. I certainly hold no faith in so-called science as it actually is. There are precedents for believing in "appearances" of new species from the unseen, such as in The Book of Enoch, in which is described the incarnation (through physical people, or mothers, true) of an entire new race of angels. They went on to become, and, it is said, still are, part of our political/economic system.

'Also for instance, we are supposed to have evolved from apes. Again if so, why are there still apes.'

OB - see my reply to David.

Hope this makes it more clear.

Oh Good Lord! THAT explains a lot.....!

That concept could apply to all life on Earth, not only mankind. It is somewhat of a miracle that any life at all 'got started', considering the fiery way the Earth was born. Luckily for us, life did evolve to make this planet a very special one.
