You might be killing your distant cousin, why would you want to do that? I think we should put monkeys in jail too if they break the law. Isn't eatting anything living canabolism, you people are sick.

Yes killing a muslim jew and christian are all the same. Thou shalt not murder.

all life began in the sea, plants and animals crawled onto land and developed further. Any living being is considered an ancester to evolutionists. We all came from a single mutation. Stop eatting your cousins.

you almost got it... but not quite
evolutionists would save the ape......and abort a human baby

Why all these mocking questions regarding men and apes? Do they really impress you as somehow logical arguments for creationism? They certainly do not function in that capacity for me.
No, killing an ape is not equivalent to killing a man, unless you are a California Vegan Animal Rights Activist, and want to stop all killing of all animals. What that would do for an already massively overcrowded planet I cannot see. No, I do not believe eating any meat is cannibalism, because humans really are different from animals, and because we do not typically eat primates, let alone anything closer to us in taxonomic terms. There are people who are able to eat monkeys, but I do wonder why it doesn't gross them out.
We are not "distant cousins" to apes, we are in the same general family of animals called "primates." That's not even the same genus, but a higher level grouping.

How did you know that I have a cold?
I don't know if evolutionists in general would have a problem with killing a monkey... unless they belong to PETA.
I think that eating anything that's living would be pretty difficult and rather disgusting. I prefer to have my food killed first and then grilled... especially my cousins. I think that family is best when prepared on rotisserie with a kona glaze.
In fact... you sound kind of tasty... zealots are always so meaty and tender. Any chance you'd like to get together for dinner?

Yet another false dilemma from a creationist.
No, of course killing an ape is not equivalent to killing a man. But both acts are despicable. I wouldn't consider killing either an ape or a man, because both are abhorrent to me. Sure, killing an ape is less abhorrent, but only marginally so.
If you try to force all moral choices into black & white moral absolutes, you risk making huge errors in judgment, like your implied conclusion that it is ok to kill apes, because they are not humans. If you really think that, then you are the sick one.

theres no such thing as "being sick" for killing your own kind cause we're all animals it doesn't make a difference what species you are we maybe more intelligent than other species but that doesn't make us any better every animal eats their own kind unless they're herbivores this is a message that most hippies or vegitarianes try to tell us we're all the same we came from nature and it is our nature to kill or whatever for certain things
and yes it is similar to killing an ape

Killing an ape would be a abomination - killing a human would be murder. As far as I'm concerned, either should be punished to the full extent of the law!!

I like it when people asks questions and think they're being smart. Here let me try:Hey fundie. Is killing a jew or muslim equivalent to killing a christian because the three are sister religions.

That is an truly moronic statement. Read a real book sometime. If you want to remain ignorant about evolution then do the rest of us a favor and go back to reading your 'Idiots Guide To Being An Idiot'.

Why would you want to kill an ape? What did it ever do to you? And monkeys are distant, DISTANT cousins. That doesn't make them human. And all animals eat other animals unless they're herbivores.

All righty then...
Here's some actual information on evolution, so maybe you can actually sound informed when you ask your next question.

By the way, evolutionists believe that both man and monkey evolved from the same very distant ancestor.
