As far as evolution, I believe that living things can evolve to adapt.
Like a labrador retriever having webbed feet or something like that for example. Not that we came from organisms that grew into monkeys and then evolved to humans.
You believe and don't believe those things because you haven't studied.
Evolution doesn't propose that one kind of animal evolved into monkeys, and then we evolved from them. We still are monkeys, and apes, and humans. A species never stops being the clade that it used to be. On the contrary, we are still apes, the same way we are still monkeys, the same way we are still mammals, the same way we are still tetrapods, the same way we are still vertebrates, etc. etc.. The human species will never stop being apes, monkeys, mammals, tetrapods, and vertebrates.
