Where People Come From



 

A child asked his mother, “Dad, how were people born?”

She answered, “Son, Adam and Eve made the first babies, then their babies became adults and made other babies, and so on.”

The child then went to his father and asked him the same question.

His father told him, “We were monkeys, then we evolved to become like we are now.”

The child ran back to his mother and said, “Mum, you lied to me! Dad said people come from monkeys.”

His mother replied, “No, son, your father was talking about his side of family.”
