i have always been taught a "creation" perspective on the origin of the universe and understand that theory quite well. I am very curious to learn about the evolutionary viewpoint. i certainly do not disagree with the principle of natural selection, but the aspect that assumes we are descendents apes brings some confusion. now for my question...

if apes evolved to eventually become humans as we know them today, why did only some of us evolve and some stay as apes? why did all in between perish, leaving only the beginning and end "products" (apes and human) with no in between?

thanks to anyone who can shed light with an educated, intelligent response!
