“I always loved the question: If humans evolved from monkees, how come there are still monkees?”
I don’t know why you love it. According to evolutionary theory, monkeys, apes and humans evolved from a distant ancestor. Humans did not evolve from monkeys.
Two “i”s, but I didn’t feel like fighting with auto correct.
15,000 species of birds and mammals, alone, and food for a year. Did the koalas bring therir own eucalyptus leaves?

Freudian slip. Was thinking a lot about pie...
Hmmm, now can that happen? Maybe we should ask a sneering sanctimonious Hollyweird starlet leftist. They’re very scientific, donchakno. Cher! We’ll ask Cher.
Depends how you count.

Tallying the Passengers
Using the family criterion in combination with the “breath of life” criterion, the total number of kinds on board the Ark was low. Today, the number of living mammal, amphibian, reptile, and bird families (including the aquatic ones) is just over 500.6
If we include fossils, the number increases. In relative terms, the increase is significant, but in terms of absolute numbers, the new total represents a small fraction of the diversity of life on the planet. Among mammals, amphibians, reptiles, and birds, the mammals have the most diverse fossil record. Only about 30% of all mammal families that ever existed are alive today.7 Assuming a similar percentage for amphibians, reptiles, and birds, we can estimate how many total families in these groups of creatures ever existed.
If 510 families exist in these groups today, and if this represents just 30% of all that ever lived, then a total of 1,700 mammalian, amphibian, reptilian, and avian families8 once existed on earth. This number—1,700—represents an upper estimate of the total number of kinds that Noah took on board the Ark
So, he took representatives of Families, and the rest of extant species evolved from them? Search shows “platypodes” is the correct Greek plural. and autocorrect wants it to be “platypuses. “
Even Swiss Cheese has fewer holes than this piece

I, for one, and know I speak for many ... am eager for you to educate us. I can tell how smart you are ! That swiss cheese thing and all. That cracked me up. Sorta brought it all home, to see the foolish error of my ways.
So how did evolution happen all at once. Doesn’t the atheistic theory say it takes billions and billions of years? This shows just the opposite.
For evolutionists everything proves evolution just like everything proves Global Warming.
Well, there are three monkees left - Peter, Michael, and Mickey. Davy passes away in 2012. I’m a Believer!
“...everything proves evolution just like everything proves Global Warming.”
I was a skeptic too.
Then I witnessed a common wrong-headed jackass species called Global Warming evolve into a multi-headed unicorn species called Climate Change. And, somehow, within less than one generation.
Now I believe.
Read my post #37. It didn’t happen all at once.
“So, he took representatives of Families, and the rest of extant species evolved from them?”
The correct answer is that it is not recorded beyond “kind.”
My theory is that each kind contained the entire range of DNA, that allowed the kind to adjust to be a best fit version for its environment and food supply.
Just a theory, but it fits the observable evidence and patterns of creation.
“Search shows “platypodes” is the correct Greek plural. and autocorrect wants it to be “platypuses. “
Thanks. Good to know, but platypii sounds better.
Ha, you’re the only one who caught that! The second I hit the “post” button I realized the error. Long weekend.
Looks like science just proved the theory false.
“More specifically, they found out that 9 out of 10 animal species on the planet came to being at the same time as humans did some 100,000 to 200,000 years ago.”
So T-Rex lived 125,000 years ago?

No. What’s false is the article which is Fake News. It’s been posted multiple times since June and it’s garbage.
