    but we cannot say with absolute certainty that humans evolved from apes.

    Two points:

    - All of the available evidence supports this model. The fact that we can't conclusively prove the hypothesis does not make it any less compelling. Furthermore, no null hypothesis which fits the data well or better has been presented, much less proven.

    - Careful with your terminology here; what you really meant to say was ". . . that humans and apes evolved from a common ancestor." We do not expect chimps to evolve into humans; these species are diverged from a more primitive ape. One branch became fully bipedal and sentient, the other did not.
