Peter Styring answered on 16 Jun 2010:
We are continually evolving. Over human timescales we won’t see many big physical changes (except maybe the average weight increasing) like growing extra legs or being able to fly, but there is evidence to show how we and other creatures evolved.

I think it is incredible! The fact that we have evolved into some complex beings from a single cell billions of years ago I find amazing! Darwin is a genius!
Isn’t there somewhere that tells us we share 50% of our DNA with a banana or something crazy like that? let me know if you find out :).

Evolution rocks. It’s the reason that we (life-forms) can continue to exist on a changing planet. It is slow though!

Its thought that humans evolved from monkeys and over the years we have turned into a beautiful race. I don’t know too much about evolution.

do you believe we came from apes or somthing like that??
Sian commented on :
Sally, that’s a Steve Jones quote. He said that “we share 98% of our DNA with the chimpanzee, which is amazing – until you consider that we share 50% with the banana”. I heard it in Oxford around 2001, but I’m sure that it’s a line that he reuses!
Eviee, we didn’t exactly come from apes, we share a common ancestor (in other words we both come from the same thing).

I dont believe in evolution. If the universe started with a big bang. How? you needed chemicals to retact. Where did they all come from?

I don’t believe in evolution either.. God made the world… not a loud of chemicals…
