Twice seems not so nice
While I am intrigued by the subject, was it really necessary to post this again twice?

I hunt for the truth
I am the one Orgasmatron, the outstretched grasping hand
My image is of agony, my servants rape the land
Obsequious and arrogant, clandestine and vain
Two thousand years of misery, of torture in my name
Hypocrisy made paramount, paranoia the law
My name is called religion, sadistic, sacred whore.
-Lyrics by Lemmy Kilmister of Motorhead

How should one respond to the question; "If we came from apes why are there still apes?"
Well, first of all, we are still apes. Second of all, when people say "we come from apes" they do not mean modern apes, but the common ancestor we share with them. Thirdly, if there are dogs, why are there still wolves? What I mean by that is that just because something is descended from it and different from its ancestors, does not mean that the niche the ancestors filled can now no longer be filled by that ancestor.
Also, "Does DNA evidence show that evolution can't happen?"
With laughter. people who say this don't understand genetics at all. They are so hopelessly wrong you should question whether or not a conversation with them has any point at all. You could tell them that DNA is actually one of the strongest (if not the strongest) evidence we have for evolution. But really, all you can do is recommend they learn what genetics is actually all about.

Re: HUNTARD!!!!!
Well, seems like you solved it. Also, my windows version is in English, so I wouldn't know the exact words that are used in Dutch either.
