Evolution still isn't proven to be true ..

Back to the basics, There are rocks in the ground that look a lot like animal bones or seashells. The deeper you dig, the more they change. Evolution is as true as anything we know about the universe.

but others are saying we are evolved from apes.
The only on this thread who have maintained this position do not believe in Natural Selection. This is the classic straw man
argument. They set up an obvious unsupported claim, disprove it, and claim to have disproved the whole idea.

<<There are other details and tangents that've been touched, I have just noticed that the education system says that it's true, which is what bothers me.>>

I buy this arguement. But, there are lots of things the education system teaches that I disagree with.

That's why a responsible parent teachs his kids BEFORE they go to school. School is just there to fill in the gaps.

I don't want my kids thinking Macs are better than PCs, but schools teach this too. So, I teach my kids the truth at home.
