Furious your understanding of evolution is simply appalling.

We didn't evolve from modern apes. Rather, both humans and other modern primates have evolved from a common ancestor that lived millions of years ago. All species are subject to different selective pressures and this accounts for the divergence.

Before you speak any more on this subject you should go here and educate yourself: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/evolution/li...faq/index.html
