@spaceman979 i think he might have been partly joking, but he is also correct on a deeper level. the monkey is exhibiting what i would call humour. (hopefully not anthropomorphisizing too much). other animals play and have fun. but humans are the only animals that engage in sophisticated humour. comedy is a profession. and some say that on the core level, essentially all humour involves someone else's suffering. this monkey is clearly getting joy out of teasing the cat. he has our blood.

@CheStillFighting i agree with the basics of humour, yes, but because we share humour it doesnt mean we are related to monkeys in any way, we share aggrersiion with many animals, doesnt mean we are related to snakes of hyenas does it ?

spaceman979 10 months ago

@spaceman979 you're correct in your criticism: because we share a trait, it doesnt mean we're related, and your analogy is accurate in terms of pointing the flaw in my reasoning. because we share a trait with snakes and hyenas doesnt mean we're related. as a point of fact, however, we are related to snakes and hyenas. and as a point of fact we're related even closer to monkeys. but as you point out, not because we share traits.

(i wasnt using that as an argument, was more just philosophising)

CheStillFighting 10 months ago

@CheStillFighting i see. ok, so if the traits dont prove we are related to other animals, then what does, where is the evidence to prove that we are ? there isnt any, we share many traits with all living things, plants even, we breathe feed reproduce and move, traits that plants have, but we are not related, i do however see that we are related in that we have relative traits, such as humour, but this does not imply, and far from proves, that all live is evolved from one source of life,

@spaceman979 yeah, sounds like speculations and not science nor proof and facts.

@JanHollender is not-admitting monkeys related to us called an ignorance? =) never forget the science of DNA, that proves monkeys n human beings r unrelated

we are not related to monkeys. Human beings are however related to Apes, such as gorillas, orangutans, and chimpanzees.

bencharman06 10 months ago

@bencharman06 Just a correction: We are related to basically everything that is alive, but we are very closely related to apes, less to monkeys etc. :-)

@JanHollender i agree sir.

bencharman06 10 months ago

@JanHollender I don't believe we are related to monkeys after seeing this. :) How do you know similar DNA proves relation or is it just a speculation? Just a question, I wont be heading into any discussion. :)

@Danpih Evolution is the most researched and most verified theory there is, in fact so much verified that we cannot even talk about evolution as a theory. It's a fact. It is of course fully possible to deny facts. But when so called creationists do this by lying big time, I have problems taking them serious. It is all about a willingness to see the obvious. The Bible says "My people perish because of lack of knowledge". Creationists are of the most extreme anti-knowledge people there is...

JanHollender 9 months ago

@JanHollender Wow, I really just wanted an answer to the question. ^^ And about that bible-word I see you didn't understand it correctly, read it again and see :) Have a good day!

Danpih 9 months ago

@Danpih Hi! I am very aware that the quotation has a context, but it still has something to do with rejecting knowledge :-) My point is simply that I cannot see any discrepancy between the Bible and evolution, or between the Bible and science. I don't have to block out my brains in order to read the Bible. On the contrary, reading the Bible with all the knowledge that we have gained during the years just makes God even greater to me! :-)

JanHollender 9 months ago

@JanHollender Ok, cool if that was your point, it sounded more to me like your point was to insult creationists, but ok :)

Danpih 9 months ago

@Danpih Hmmm.... Insulting creationists? Wasn't that part of the point, then? Creationists are against science, while I see no problem combining Bible and science :-) In their eagerness to prove that the world is 6.000 years old or so, they completely block out people who use their intelligence. To me, that's not very Christian... Bottom line: Be curious on life and interested in science; it doesn't contradict Christianity :-)

@JanHollender I am interested in science, but not in guessings and speculations, nor in hoaxes and lies from evolutionists, sorry but that's just me ^^

Danpih 9 months ago

@Danpih Ok, we might not agree :-) But if you are "interested in science, but not in guessings and speculations, nor in hoaxes and lies", then it is the evolutionists you should listen to. As mentioned earlier, evolution is probably the most verified truth you can come across, as thousands of scientific research projects have concentrated on this. Creationists do the opposite; they are denying the truth by deliberately presenting false "knowledge" NOT based on science and truth...

JanHollender 9 months ago

@JanHollender O'rly? How about all falsified evidence that still is used as proof for the evolution? And how about "Lying in the Name of Indoctrination" that is supported by many evolutionists? Naah, I've had enough of it, they fooled me with Haeckels drawings when I was younger, luckily I learnt that it and almost every other piece of evidence was either hoax or proven different. That's my experience of the evidence of evolution. ^^

"I learnt that it and almost every other piece of evidence was either hoax or proven different." you are almost better than venomfangx

@whitespideralex ahh, might be hard to see but I meant every other piece of evidence in the textbook I had. :P I haven't even heard of everything that evolutionists have as evidence.

Danpih 9 months ago

@whitespideralex Really I didn't want to start a big discussion I just wanted to ask the question I asked in the beginning. Well, I see I couldn't get any direct answer so I might aswell end writing here, I don't think it will lead to anything good anyway since both you and the other guy seem to prejudge me as a moron because of what I say. No I'm not afraid of losing and having to admit that I'm wrong cuz Gods word is truth :) Anyway, Peace!

@JanHollender You should praise God for all the entertaining creatures he has made. You look at the surface of things. If you dig deeper you will find that there's not a chance that anthing came about by just that - chance.

Nice. It will be a good idea to put monkeys & tigers under one area. So that both can exercise themselves by chasing & disturbing each other.

FYI, the tiger & monkey are opposing animals in the Chinese Zodiac signs.
