  • 0:23 [insert perverse Joke here]

  • are u guys talking about their faces or their butts?

  • YAY!!!! :D

  • how come all the goorillas look like 50 cent and xzibit

  • all of the gorrillas look like solja boi and sean kingston as well

  • Haha I guess they're the same. But 50 cent and xzibit are way more retarted.

  • @iiTwizTedLove thats racist

  • they are gathering ape-power to wipe us human off !!!

  • so true

  • Comment removed

  • looks like lots of humans I've seen!

  • How can they eat these gentle giants In Africa?

  • They dont eat them

  • Actually, some people in Africa do eat gorillas. If you Google "bushmeat", you can find plenty of references to gorillas, other primates,antelopes and reptiles being killed (usually illegally) for what the locals call, "bushmeat".

  • now im not saying im on anyones side here but about 2 tottaly different countries with totally different views on socienty and the world about 2-5k years ago, which would be what we now call Mexico, and what we now call europe, both had the same view on when the word would reach its TURNING point, now look around you, what is happpening to economy, xD however, on the hand we must take into mind that theory behind this philosophy doesnt quite add, but who knows, the world is unpredictable ;)

  • thats nice.. but arent we messing with natural selection by helping them? "survival of the fittest"

  • were messing with natural selection when we give people with diseases medicine. so what if were messing with natural selection?

  • 人間も理性がないと同じような行動になるんだよな。理性をいかに­楽しむかが人間と猿に違いかな。

  • script kiddies

  • theyre enjoying the forest

  • Poor things :(

  • God is so blessing.Thank you!

  • Flyborg is a turd burgler.

  • Theres probably a hotel there now lol.

  • Aikuza you're an ignorant shithead.

  • The reason gorillas are almost extinct is because humans know about them. Another win for the gorilla apartment x-P

  • If you want to to it, do it on an religion video

  • Hey guys, does this have ANYTHING to do with the video? Does it mention anything even RELATED to religion?!?

  • she has a rather irritating voice

  • yes.

  • ..I mean "animal" in a biological sense of course. If you think of "animals" as simple-minded creatures unable to comprehend their own existance, then we are not animals. From a biological sense, however, we have known that we are animals for a long time. Finding out that we have a common ancestor with other primates changed nothing. We're still animals. This is a biological classification based on cell structure. We're not plants or fungi or bacteria; we're animals. Were also mammels, and apes.

  • That's OK, just look at the pictures.

  • no need for all your long comments,im too lazy to read them

  • THanks for your response. Sure they can believe that. But that doesnt mean its right. Both theories contradict eachother. Men's word against God's Word. If we are made in the image of God, then that doesnt mean we evolved from apes? And He says, each animal produces after its kind a lot of times in Genesis 1. Thats not what evolution is claiming. Either you belief in God's creation, or you dont. Evolution is confusing and deceiving. There are no moral values in it. Hope I make sense. Bless ya!

  • Just to correct you, we didn't evolve from apes, anymore then we evolved from mammels, or evolved from animals. We are animals (not plants, fungi, etc), we are mammals (not reptiles, etc) and we are apes. We are from the "great ape" family, of the order "primate". We never stopped being apes. And yes, evolution does contradict the Bible, but so does the theory that the Earth orbits the sun (Galileo was called a blasphemer), and the theory of disease, and basically the rest of reality.

  • If we are animals, doesnt that mean that we should act like animals then? Have you ever seen an animal with any moral value? Or a conscience to see and feel what is good and wrong? Because of this evolution teaching, we dont see any meaning in our lives and thats one of the reasons why people kill and destroy everything. Cause they dont see the harm of doing evil without consequenses. The foundation of our law is the written word of God. Think about it. Can men live without God?

  • We're not plants, we're not bacteria, we're animals. Are you denying that we're animals? And no, it DOESN'T mean we should "act like animals". Our cell structure has nothing to do with morality. And yes, animals do have morality; they don't randomly kill each other anymore then humans do. There is no biological or evolutionary advantage to random violence. And no, "our law" is not based on ANY religion. If anything, our NATURAL morality helps us BYPASS the horrible immorality in the Bible etc..

  • [cont.] Pretty much every culture on Earth has similar laws and rules, about not killing/stealing/etc. The Bible has no negative mention of slavery/rape/torture. So how do you know they're wrong? NATURAL morality. Religion ruled once, and it was the most violent time on Earth. Now, the most peaceful and well-off countries are the most atheistic. "Can we live without God?".. yes. You also assume that it's YOUR God, and not the literally THOUSANDS of others which you reject as well.

  • [cont.] Whether or not you like the results of evolution is also completely irrelivant. Even if it somehow meant that we should "act like animals" (which obviously it doesn't) then it STILL wouldn't make it any less true. This is just an argument from consiquence. It's like saying that atoms don't exist, because knowledge of atoms allowed for atomic bombs.

  • I see... but please understand this: Get to know Jesus. Its not a religion, but a personal relationship with Him. There is a meaning and purpose to life. Read the new testament(John, Romans) to understand the Good News. Core message in the Bible: The Love of God. Know His ways, and learn to understand why He does things His way. True Christianity brings forth, Love, Peace, Hope, Joy, Freedom, Truth, Wisdom, Care, Thrust, Friendship, Unity, but most all Eternal Salvation. And Atheism? GodBless

  • Well my only point was to correct the statement that we "evolved from apes", when in fact we never stopped being apes. Since I do not believe in the existance of the Christian God anymore than the ancient Egpytian gods, I can't really "know him", anymore then you can "know" the sun god Ra. Nor do you have any incentive to "get saved" from failing Ra's feather test. (If your heart is heavier then a feather, it is consumed by the goddess Aamat and you remain in Duat) See, it's just not convincing.

  • The Christian God doesnt use any 'magic' and mysterious mythologies like Egyptian gods and hindu gods for example. The Christian God is direct in His message. He speaks right to the heart if you read His word. It says His word is like a double edged sword that will cut trough everything. Thats why His Word is so strong and all powerfull. He set the standard in order to reveal the Truth to the world. I understand its probably not convincing enough, but to fully understand you need His Spirit.

  • Sure he used magic. Magic, being anything supernatural (non-natural, non-obeying the laws of physics). He is by very nature not part of this universe and does not obey physical laws. I notice you dismiss the Hindu gods as a "mythology". Interesting, because if you had been born in India, you'd almost definately believe in the Hindu gods with the same certainty that you believe in the Christian God, and you would dismiss the Christian God for the same reason that you now dismiss the Hindu gods.

  • You may call it magic, but its by the Power of the Holy Spirit. Magic is used by magicians ect. Jesus is God.- Well, not all is mythology. I actually do believe that most of these hindu 'gods' existed, which were actually demons, Genesis 6:4. Many Hindu's come to Christ. The Gospel is heard to the ends of the earth to set people free. I also wasnt raised in a christian home for 22 years, and came to Christ 1,5 year ago. I never heard of the Gospel before like many. God wants everyone to know Him

  • No, magicians use FAKE magic, because there is no such thing as magic (or witches, or curses, or "uncleanliness", or demonic possesion, or blood sacrifices, other whacky things mentioned in the Bible). I'm not sure what magic has to do with anything though. If God wants everyone to know him, then he's a horrible communicator. He uses the exact same methods of communication as all those fake religions do, and he has been hiding for thousands of years, choosing only to appear on toast.

  • Only because you dont believe it, wont make it dissapear. Isnt it obvious that every creation you see has a creator? Typcial example: A watch. Complicated designed. This watch could not been formed by blind chance. It has a creator 100%. Now, look at Life. Its the most complex thing. You think that Life also happened by chance? Offcourse not, it proofs there is a CREATOR. The watch has instructions how it should work. The bible is our instruction Book which God gave us to know Him. Common sense

  • So do snowflakes have a creator? They're pretty complex. You could hang one in a gallery. What about bubbles? Rainbows? Watches don't reproduce, they don't mutate, and they don't have heredity.

  • (For something to DISappear, it must first appear.)

  • The values of (many) Christians such as yourself are fine, and I have no need to be "converted" to them, as they are natural human values. I simply don't see any correlation with any religion, including your own. Reading nice stories or good values in the Bible will not convince me of it's reality, anymore then the nice stories in Hindu scripture will convince you. Only actual evidence is convincing. The very fact that God apparently designed my brain to not believe in him, is unconvincing.

  • Hindu teaches that there are many ways to God. Well the bible claims there is only ONE WAY to the Father. That means that every religion will get their way to God. Why should God allow that? No one is righteous enough before God, thats why He sent His Son Jesus, in order for us to get saved. Other relgions will only make you righteous in the eyes of men. ... but not in the eyes of God. Cause His standard is perfect and holy, and no one on earth is like that. Thats why.. Jesus! :)

  • Only one way to God, eh? Well, that makes even less sense. You can predict someone's religion to something like 90% accuracy if you know their place and year of birth. So religion is almost entirely based on geography. From the hypothesis "the God of my religion exists, and is fair", this doesn't make any sense. From the hypothesis "man invented God", it makes perfect sense. "The true God" apparently spreads his message in the same way that made-up gods do, and he's just as bad at communication.

  • Why would God spread different kinds of Truths, like the Hindu's actually claim in their religion? Like I said: we have sinned against the Most Holy One. Have you ever lied, stolen, blaspheme, look with lust at another person then the one you love? The 10 commandments speaks right to our heart and conscience and tells us that its wrong. So how can we ever get right with Him? Trough Jesus. And other religions? By doing good deeds they think. That does not wash away sin. You're only saved by Grace

  • "Sin" is a made up word. Is it possible to sin, without doing harm to anyone? How is that a sin? Is it possible to harm someone without sinning? How is that NOT a sin? Why not just talk about "doing bad things" instead of using made up words like "sin"?

  • So wait, you reject Hinduism because it's ILLOGICAL? Sounds like selective logic. And yet you don't see anything wrong with God sacrificing himself, to himself, in order to convince himself, to save us from.. himself? You don't see anything wrong with a "whipping boy", IE someone who is punished for someone else's wrong doing? Finding out about sin is a sin? Talking snakes? Magic fruit? Unicorns? Curses? Eternal torment awaits those who reject Gods eternal love? Etc..

  • OK. So here is a person who blindly believes everything that the Bible says, and someone who will never be converted. I say that both of you have said some truth. What I believe in is that there is God. God created us and helped our ancestors several times. The Bible contains stories, so that we can understand it, and only with God can we understand the true meaning of them. The only reason I believe in God is that God is nothing, well at least nothing tocheable. He is suposed to be only love...

  • ...and if he is nothing but an emotion, he wouldn't have needed anything to 'start off' with. I know it's a wierd thought but Hey! Doesn't evolution sound a bit wacky? (BTW I believe in evolulution and in God aswell)

  • "and if he is nothing but an emotion, he wouldn't have needed anything to 'start off' with"

    Indeed, so if "he" is an emotion, then "he" never started to exist, and you don't need any faith to believe in "him". The problem is that, as I said, emotions don't have a will or the ability to effect things. They don't talk to people or have a list of rules, and they don't write books. If your view is that God = love and nothing more, then you're arguably an atheist or pantheist.

  • But if you're only using the word "God" to refer to the emotion of "love", why call it God? There's already a word for love. Love is not an intelligent thinking entity, it doesn't wilfully create things, it isn't a "he", and it doesn't care what kinds of fabrics you wear or how you sacrifice birds to appease it into curing your leprosy. But, if you're using the word God to describe an intelligent supernatural entity, then this is a claim about the nature of reality that requires evidence.

  • Maybe... but you have to know that I have a condition called synaesthesia and a mild autism/ asperger's syndrome so I see the world different from most people. I give letters personalities and they have a family tree, so maybe my personality of 'love' is the same as what others call 'God'. It is still good to believe in something/someone who 'understands' me. Which is in my case rare, because i know noone who has the

  • ...same conditions/disorders.

    Sorry about that i just accidentally posted it.

    Anyways thanks for your comment, it may have helped me understand my synaesthesia more.

    Thanks again.

    *bows*

  • Actually I've heard the confusion between concepts such as love with a thinking supernatural entity before, just from people who aren't sure what they're arguing for, so I just assumed you had done that. And I totally understand the desire for something to exist which understands you - it's just that many people use the concept of "God" as an excuse to tell people what to do based on personal opinions, or cause world conflicts, which is why I don't think belief in this 2nd version is positive.

  • i'm christian and i agree with you somewhat but you see... you can't just say read the bible and stuff... its not realistic that someone is gonna read your comment and go out and do it...

  • well, if people claim that God doesnt exist without looking for Him themselves, how can they know what they say is true? And you never know if someone will ever read it out of curiousity. Its important to trigger someone in all ways my fellow-christian, thats why there is Hope ;). God Bless.

  • The Bible only means that everything was created by God. It is just a story, which does not have to be true, it only shows that God is the Creator.

  • all those primates are dying ultimately because they failed to adapt and evolve as we did. Sorry to all you environmentalists, but that's how life works.

  • hahahaahahah u adapted to what? lol

  • Evolution is pure fantasy and speculation and are opinions of men. Men who dont want to acknowledge the existance of God. Evolution only happens in the mind and in textbooks, craftmanship and multimedia. There is no power in evolution like there is power in the Word of God. Dont believe the worldteaching, seek with your heart for the Truth. There is no Hope without God in this world. Hope you understand. God Bless.

  • I see the bible as more fantasy than any book on evolution. There could be a God, but I wouldn't spend my life believing in the bible because there are things in it that are just plain absurd. I guess in the end it is just a matter of what you make sense out of, depending on which side of the topic you are on. There are a lot of books that promote morals and values, some capturing the concept better than the bible; one doesn't need to be constricted to the bible to believe in morals and values

  • So how will you spend your life then? People are looking the Truth right? Jesus is the only God Who said: I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. And ofcourse; evolution is pure fantasy and speculation and is based on opinions of men. So who will you give more credibility and who can you thrust? men or God?

  • What religion are you with?

  • Im a christian, a diciple of Jesus. The name of the religion is called Christianity. But christianity is the only religion where you can get a personal relationship with God. Trough Jesus. If you want to know someone, you'll have to engage a relationship with that person right? Its he same with God. Only trough Jesus. Cause God is big, and people dont know where to begin to seek, when they hear God. Thats also a reason why He sent us His only son, in order for us to understand His Love for us.

  • But Jesus is dead, so does that mean that now we cannot have a personal relationship with God? If he is dead then how does that work?

  • He is not dead. He had died on the cross for our sins and has risen again after 3 days. Thats why He is alive forever and always. If you ask for Jesus to come into your life, you will notice that He is truly alive. I have a personal relationship with Him and its great! At first I also didnt believe also this christian mumbo jumbo stuff. But untill you really seek, you will find Him. Its not that hard. God is on the edge of our lips. Confess to Him and repent and you will see the change..

  • aikuza, thanks for the information. I haven't made up my mind which religion I am going to follow. There are so many choices. But I am really going to take chrisianity into consideration! Other religions are offering me some really great things in the afterlife, and others offer to protect me from an afterlife of torture so I am still kind of on the fence about it, but I think I will make a choice soon! Thanks again, I will let you know!

  • Hey, no problem ;). If you have any questions, just mail me. Remember; if you are looking for Truth. Jesus is THE only God Who claimed that He is The Way the Truth and The Life. It shall set you free. And I tell you, it feels great not to sin anymore!! To be pure, holy and righteous before God. But most important, Eternal Salvation with God is a promise of God Himself.

  • science sorry bout that, take some reality pills

  • Satan blinds the mind, and darkens the thoughts of those who do not believe. Jesus will free the mind and soul from being a slave of the world.

    You want reality? Take this challenge if you dare: Ask God for forgiveness for the things you have done wrong, even the things you werent aware off. Ask Jesus to come into your Life and He will give you a new heart with new desires for righteousness and grants you eternal life. If you are really serious with this prayer, you will see the Way,Truth&Life.

  • just so you know i'm not a bible thumper BUT... whats absurd about the bible?

    seriously just out of curiosity i'd like

    to know what you think...

  • For starters, the story of Noah's ark.

  • lol i am sorry but i had to but in noahs ark was found and you can go and see its the same size as sed in the bible think before you type dude

  • lol, that's a good one. If you think that a boat the size of the ark found could carry two of every animal on earth then you are either oblivious or are in denial of how real life works. Noah's ark is a big fat joke.

  • pff hahahahaaha wow dude thay found it its the same size every race talks about a great flood most have the same story i mean wtf how could you say its a joke with all this prof

    i could show it to you and you would still say its fake becuz your afrade of reality

  • It doesn't matter if it's the same size as the ark in the bible. You missed the point entirely. The fact remains that you couldn't fit all the animals on the planet on a boat that size! There is no argument for you. It CAN'T be done. That is why Noah's ark is a joke.

  • Nothing to say? Yea, that's what I thought. Tool.

  • @comicfl dude the ark is the same size as the titanic right? well there are 3000 diffrent anamils

    could the titanic hold 6000 people YES so ya it can be done and your just scared of reality

  • You don't know what your talking about. 3000 species? WRONG. There are 15,000 species of mammals alone. Add the 6,000 species of reptiles, 1,000 amphibians, 9,000 birds a million named species of insects, and a million insects that haven't been discovered yet...

    You obviously have NO IDEA what you are talking about and are going on blind faith, which is how most bible thumpers go through life. Enjoy obliviousness.

  • a bird is a bird a dog is a dog he did not take all of the diffrent kinds

    enjoy hell

  • If he didn't take all the different kinds then where did the other kinds come from? You keep digging yourself a grave here, I almost feel sorry for you.

  • thay changed do to there envirment

    sorry for the spelling

  • Wow, you have a brain washed anwser for everything. I guess this means you beleive in evolution....but you think it only takes a few thousand hears for a panda bear to change into a grizzly bear...yea...

    In your last post you said "enjoy hell". That is not very christian of you. Jesus would be dissapointed.

  • to be frank with you i dont care what you think and if any body here is brain washed its you

  • It's funny to listen to someone like you. I think I got all the entertainment from you that I can.

    If you beleive that story and it makes you happy, then good for you, beleive it.

  • ok you keep saying that till 2012

  • HA HA! Just when I think you can't get any more entertaining you say this! 2012, let me guess, that is the end, right? LOL, you christians have been predicting dates like this for the past 2000 years. There is a very nice web site that has hundreds of them. It's funny, every time it doesn't happen you guys just pick a new date. 2012 seems to be the latest in christian trends. I'm glad you are up on religous pop culture! LOL, what a tool.

  • nope not that

  • Excuse Me? The bible says man will NEVER know when the world will end. Any Christian who says they know when the world will end is lying. Read Revelation.

  • gaialetters, I was making fun of come religous person who thought they could perdict when the world ends. We agree man.

  • Aaahahahahahahahahahahaaha so true

  • "Wow, you have a brain washed anwser for everything. I guess this means you beleive in evolution....but you think it only takes a few thousand hears for a panda bear to change into a grizzly bear...yea...

    In your last post you said "enjoy hell". That is not very christian of you. Jesus would be dissapointed."

    antimoron08 = OWNED.

  • who did?

    well, i already know that nobody has found noah's ark, thats ridiculous. but i'd like you to tell me anyways.

  • dude it was all over the news in 2002 the ark is sum where in eastern turky hers a vid

    Revealing God's Treasure - Noah's Ark

    hek i could show atheists the dam thing and

    thay will still say its fake

  • "dude it was all over the news in 2002 the ark is sum where in eastern turky hers a vid"

    They found a big boat. But that doesn't prove noah's ark as the bible says really happened. Look at my previous post about the acutal number of species of animals. Anwser that one, genuis.

  • I'm calling poe.

  • God is pure fantasy and speculation and are opinions of men. Men who dont want to acknowledge the existance of Evolution. God only happens in the mind and in holy books, craftmanship and multimedia. There is no power in god like there is power in the

    Algorithm of Darwin. Dont believe the traditionteaching, seek with your mind for the Reason. There is no Hope without Knowledge in this world. Hope you understand. Goodness Bless.

  • Hunting gorillas is one of the most exhilarating experiences you can get from sport hunting, aside from Lion and Bear. These animals are amazing and very territorial when you get close. I recommend to any sport hunter to get a license to shoot gorillas

  • omg

  • Mr Comic, you'll have to work a bit harder at trying to be funny. Anyhow if you want a real rush, you don't need a license to shoot one. Just go our there and try to strangle one with your hands. You won't be dissapointed at the exhilaration you'll feel.

  • It's illegal in some areas, so I was just mentioning the licence thing in case someone went out there and thought it is open season 365.

    Strangle one? LOL, YOU are the funny one. I don't think you understand the concept of sport hunting.

  • Oh yes. I believe you sneak up on a wild animal (preferably a big one) and use a powerfull firearm to whack it off from a distance. That gives you an adrenalin rush cause you imagine what it would have done to you if you had come any closer. After that you feel proud of yourself and take bits and pieces of it to show off. If you kill a type that there's not many of, its extra cool and exclusive.

    Next thing, hunters will propose culling some of these as there are "too many" now.

  • Okay. I take that back. You do know sport hunting.

    Have you ever been bear hunting? You will NEVER know the feeling unless you have been. Words cannot explain it.

  • OF COURSE NOT! To kill a bear in order get a rush? Words cannot explain it because it's too stupid for words.

    My idea of "hunting" would involve a camera to capture a moment in the bears life without interfereing with it (porbably requires more skill and "cahones" than shooting it).

    Have you ever tried scuba diving?

  • Well, you are probably against killing animals so I would expect you to call bear hunting "stupid" as you did. Agree to disagree.

    Yea suba diving is awesome. Some people are pretty fanatical about it. I swear, it's like the free masons or something. My experiences were cool, though the places I have been could have been done with snorkle gear.

  • That's so great! I just finished watching a doc. on Discovery about the gorilla's being slaughtered...

  • Still, we shouldn't let this speck of "good" news take away from our vigilance. Hundreds of species are going extinct everyday.

    Don't forget them.

    XVX for life, R.A.S.H. 'til death.

  • You're right. Still, it's nice to hear some positive news! Most of what is told about this subject is heart breaking, and leaves little hope for a turn about. This gives me hope for their future.

  • tell me when they start doing like in "congo"

    and start signing to eachother

  • Yeah gorillas.

  • It is good news, but gorillas are still at risk. And what the video failed to mention is that at least half of the 630 or so primate species are on the brink of extinction.

  • That's very good news! I'm very happy! Hopefully, that damn virus threat will be squashed very soon.

  • sexy as hell

  • glad to hear that u think that. with a name like superfisto. hope ur a girl.

  • ah the ebola virus. definitely wouldnt want to catch that. i agree throatkickerr, maybe some of them have built some sort of resistance towards it.

  • gorrila city

  • Ebola's pretty nasty-- but you'd think that the gorillas that survive are the ones that are immune. Call me crazy.

    And as long as we don't keep hunting the crap out of them =)

  • When they start going through the caveman phase, will they count as a type of human in a couple thousand centurys?

  • they may evolve but it's unlikely that they become human. they may become something else. some other type of gorilla-ish animal wich we havent seen or thought of yet.

  • humans are not monkeys

  • My bad. They are humanoid creatures. Seriously. My mistake. Sorry.

  • LOL

  • no, we are apes.

  • but we are primates.

  • they would kinda be like orcs lol

  • or like from the planet of the apes

  • No, they will not become human.

    They share a common ancestor with us, but they are not our direct ancestor.

    The way evolution works is that each species has the possibility of changing and adapting to their environment and becoming an entirely new species.

    Evolution isn't working towards some great goal, like becoming human. It isn't a line, it is a great tree, with more branches than you can imagine.

  • I thought a Gorrila was an Ape?!

  • lol

  • Still, this still means they are fucking threatened by our cancerous ways.

    Respect all life.

    XVX for life, R.A.S.H. 'til death.

  • what does that mean?

  • it means he's a hippie and probably unemployed.

  • or he is EMO

  • Or I'm a skin head that would probably fist fight your weak ass.

    Ignorant consumers.

    Not you db. Keep an open mind. wikipedia is a good source of information.

  • I swa the hole documentary by sir david attenborough it was amazing to see so many silverbacks gorilla in there wild in there wild inhabitad.

  • hello
