Is Evolution an insult to apes?

Question

Apes don't kill each other and call each other bigots. Has anyone considered that man evolved into apes?........ Hmmmm that gives me an idea for a book......... Good night all!

Answer 1

Actually, yes they do. Sorry to burst your bubble, but you need to do some research on the violence chimpanzees are capable of. They even have gangs of young males that go out and torture and kill a male that's alone. They kill eachother straight up murder style. They bite off noses, fingers, toes, and genetalia. Chimps are dangerous, violent animals and they kill for pleasure. You're mistaken.

Answer 2

Actually, chimp-on-chimp murders have been observed. And they certainly will snap a monkey’s neck if they get the chance. Gorillas, oranges, and gibbons maybe are not as aggressive, however they have not been studied as much either.

However, you are of course generally correct. All other predators in the animal kingdom have learned to get out of our way or get dead.

Here is my prediction for the not-so-distant future – I think you will see an increase in the number of black/brown bear attacks against humans.
Not out of some sense of revenge, but because of genetics, adaptation, and evolution.

Throughout human history, whenever humans and bears have crossed paths it has always been the most aggressive bears who were killed most often (because they were aggressive and did not flee). Over time this provided something of a selective advantage for bears that avoided rather than confronted humans.

Now that large areas of bear territory are protected, the more aggressive bear characteristics can become more common. That is, until it reaches a level where bear-man encounters end with the bear doing a victory dance on a human corpse. It will be a short lived victory for the bears however, because when, once again, people decide that the bears are the problem, the more aggressive ones will end up leaving the gene pool a little earlier than they would like.

Answer 3

I really enjoyed this question.....it makes me want to put on some Devo. Actually I think Apes have some very similar behavior patterns. They fight over women. They fight to protect territory and ranges. They have a strict structure/hierarchy ran by an Alpha Male (whether or not Bush is an Alpha Male is a whole different question). They seek sexual gratification.

Answer 4

I don't agree they kill in some habitats and they have the same political structures in primitive ways as people. We just call it domination when monkeys do it. And they kill people as well.
I don't recall the source but It occurs to me that some monkeys have displayed cannibalism anyway I know they will kill a human from when I worked in research with spider monkeys those little skunk like ones.

Answer 5

that is been proved that the climate of earth type the climate contemporary in mankind so no longer as stressful to comprehend as you're able to think of while there has been no freak ape mean floor with a soul and who can communicate over tens of millions of years. you may come from the apes in case you want to yet i'm a advent of God.

Answer 6

Absolutely! They don't abandon and murder their young, especially before they are born. Their natural instincts God programmed into them have never changed. That's what makes them distinct from other species.
The Bible mentions a dog going back to it's vomit and a sow returning to the wallow. You can clean them up, put bows on their heads, put them on the leash but when the day is done they are still dogs and pigs by nature. It is what they are. This is the analogy used for fools returning to their folly (sins, vices), false teachers making money teaching damnable heresies to the people even denying the Lord that bought them, the many who follow their ways and speak evil of the truth, those of filthy conversation (lifestyle, behavior, conduct), unclean flesh, espising governement, self-willed, speaking evil of dignities and things they understand not, as natural brute beasts, eyes full of adultery (pornography applies), beguiling unstable souls, cursed children, servants of corruption, those who have once known the truth and turned from it.
Man just chooses to give in to the brute beast behavior when he leaves God out of His knowledge.

Answer 7

apes and monkeys do fight and kill one another.. check it out.
Most animals are better then most people as they are not corrupted by our screwed up sense of right and wrong.
If man that has polluted the earth and caused such a mess of things. Not animals.
Animals live by their instincts and therefore much better to survive the wilds then man.
Man is a thinking animal that is going to cause his own extinction

Answer 8

Actually apes do kill, they do have politics and a social structure they do have hunting parties and you should research your statements a little bit more

Answer 9

I THINK YOU HAVE GOT SOMETHING THERE.

ADAM CAME MUCH LATER, AND THERE WAS SO MUCH THAT WAS EARLIER.

If animal instinct has them at each others throat, it is because they are that kind of animal and not from evil.
Gen.8:21; The imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth. Eccl.3:19-21;

KING SOLOMON'S APES AND PEACOCKS 3036 YEARS AGO

1ki.10:21 And all king Solomon's drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of pure gold; none were of silver: it was nothing accounted of in the days of Solomon.
1kI.10:22 For the king had at sea a navy of Tharshish with the navy of Hiram: once in three years came the navy of Tharshish, bringing gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.
1kI.10:23 So king Solomon exceeded all the kings of the earth for riches and for wisdom.

Answer 10

apes do kill each other. they can't talk so the bigot thing is irrelevant.
