"If man evolved from monkeys, why do we still have monkeys?"

Both present-day monkeys and present-day men evolved from something else that it not presently walking around consuming oxygen. This is a story from a comic book you are operating on, and has no bearing on present-day science.

Comic book? I don't recall mentioning one. I hope you're not referring to the Bible.

I don't normally get involved in the Evolution/Creation debates, since those who believe in creation won't be swayed from their religious beliefs, and the evolutionists won't either.

Unlike many of the commenters here, I believe that God is infinitely more powerful and intelligent than any of us humans. Attempting to constrain Him to our limited 20th/21st century understanding of His creation is the epitome of arrogance.

In order for evolution to take place the other animal doesn't have to die off. All that needs to be is that in a small area an isolated population which has a variety of traits and the capablity to reproduce many times. When a change in climate happens the animals which have a mutation that helps them deal with the change survive, and have many many many babies. So the next generation is different. At the same time the orginal species may be intact in a different area.
Have you anti-evolution guys even read darwin? Just because you don't take the bible as a total truth doesn't mean your not religous, other wise you'd all be Catholic, because protestants originally believed that everyman can believe in Christ anyway he wants. Times have changed.
