I think you're very confused about the theory of evolution.
No scientist claims that humans *used to be* animals.
Humans *are* animals, and the genetic lineage could not be clearer. Are there things we don't know yet? Certainly, but it is by continuing research into the fact of evolution that we will learn them.

The part I bolded is not true. It is NOT clear.
I am not an expert so I may have got this wrong, but where is the link between ancient apes and modern humans? Physiologically there are so many differences, one cannot have come from the other. Just because our genetics are similar does not mean one evolved from the other. Brown eyed apes and blue eyed humans - where did the blue eyes genetically come from?
Yes, humans are animals rather than... say, repltiles but a classification or naming system is one devised by man to create scientific order. Ultimately humans place things into 'boxes' to make organisation easier.

Once again, we do not come from apes. We share a genetic common ancestor. We don’t know where that ancestor is, but when that ancestor was alive I’m pretty sure he didn’t look either human, or ape.
That’s why we are only a few genes away from apes. Somewhere in the way back time we had a common ancestor. And that’s why everything on this earth shares genetic material. We share the same genetic material, 66%, as a banana. Somewhere along the line some of us were bananas and frankly this whole subject is making me bananas so I really understand this.
I recently read maybe about six months ago in the Smithsonian magazine? That blue eyes come from a single genetic anomaly. Once again we can’t find these people cause you’re going back 20 or 30,000 years.

Once again, please read my post. I did NOT say we came from apes. Where did I say that?
Like last time, you did not read the post then either.
All this is speculation. If you like science so much, how about really examining the data. There is NO evidence we evolved from apes, however close the DNA matches. As I pointed out, physiologically we are supposed to be very different and cannot have evolved from them.

Well, I definitely don't come from apes, I'm Rh O Negative. It says on the interwebs I'm probably an alien hybrid right now.
Back to the pregnancy thing..

You are wrong. The fossil record alone shows overwhelming evidence that modern humans and modern chimpanzees share a common ancestor. The genetic evidence has sealed the argument.
Modern apes are not our grandparents. But they are our cousins.

How are humans and monkeys related?
Humans and monkeys are both primates. But humans are not descended from monkeys or any other primate living today. We do share a common ape ancestor with chimpanzees. It lived between 8 and 6 million years ago. But humans and chimpanzees evolved differently from that same ancestor. All apes and monkeys share a more distant relative, which lived about 25 million years ago.
Did humans evolve in a straight line, one species after another?
Human evolution, like evolution in other species, did not proceed in a straight line. Instead, a diversity of species diverged from common ancestors, like branches on a bush. Our species, Homo sapiens, is the only survivor. But there were many times in the past when several early human species lived at the same time.

Sure. It's all speculation, but it's fun. Just Google "what will humans look like in 1000 years" and you'll get lots of fun reading.

According to your article, the Pope has said he believes in evolution, but I am not convinced. Who's to say that those fossils and skulls they found of so called ancestral humans were not just another animal created by God? Therefore, humans are not descended from any of these creatures, only genetically similar. Humans have always been humans, if you ask me.
Since the title of the thread is about aliens abducting human women to have babies with the lizard people, I will stay on topic and go a step further and say that maybe these aliens breeded humans with some other animal, therefore creating those ancient "people" they like to claim are human. But since they were not really human, they died out, much like those sheep that are born with a human face. They soon die out.
