Yep, and proud to say it! I hate when people say that I'm comparing myself to a chimp and that makes me uncivilized. The idea of evolution is that even though we've developed from one gene pool we are different and function in different ways. Therefore, though we've evolved from chimps we are far more mentally advanced and are capable of thoughts and actions far above those of a chimp.
Small technical point: The theory was that apes and man evolved from a common ancestor, not that we evolved from apes. Had that been the case, we and the apes wouldn't be present at the same time.
