if humans evolved from apes...
Sort:
...then why can’t we mate with them?
Horses and donkeys can mate and different breeds of dogs can mate, and these relationships produce offspring...
Valid point
Other thoughts?
I mean I realize that we’re different species and different breeds of dogs are not, but in that case what was the defining point where the recently developed human and the ape could no longer mate?
It had to have happened at some point

Humans didn't evolve from any extant species of primate. Rather, humans and chimpanzees evolved from a common ancestor, but diverged millions of years ago. Human DNA and chimpanzee DNA are simply too different to be able to produce offspring.

interesting how they can go back millions of years.
if someone farted with no sound a few seconds ago, we couldn’t be sure if they hadn’t crapped in their pants.
Lol
