Monkeys and apes share a common ancestor, and that ancestor diverged into two separate lineages. One of these lineages ultimately evolved into gorillas and chimps, and the other evolved into early human ancestors called hominids.

Your claim that since we were tree dwellers means we are monkeys is entirely false. We are much more closely related to apes than we are to monkeys.

Do your research, dude.

yes, but we are not descendants of monkeys and we never were. it is apes, and always will be apes.

get it through your thick skulls people. it is not monkeys, it is apes. monkeys have tails, apes do not.

now, continue with your argument.
