This question is used as an example of the most utterly, obviously stupid questions that creationists ask. If one had the very tiniest amount of a clue about what the evolutionary model was about and one thought for just a small moment it would be obvious that this is very, very dumb.
I dont think this really as dumb as you claim beacause:

If your parents have children how come they are still around and/or if you exist do your cousins have to die?
This is not even an answer!
Quite clearly, the layman will always be ignorant of genetics but is not understanding how come the proposed ancestor resembles the creature still alive together.
So the question is
if we evolved so much from some apelike creature how come the chimps we see today are not much different from this proposed ancestor?
I guess the answer is they have changed too, but not as much and certainly did not evolve the big brain we have now.
Here is something that I always wondered - is it plausible to think
that another creature alive now can evolve into a new creature given a few million years to a creature more intelligent than a human ? Assume that the human race went extinct today ..
