The difference ... ( 9 months ago by drfoxcourt)

The difference between homo sapiens and our nearest evolutionary cousins is that we can choke. Humans have a descended larynx giving us the ability to make sounds other primates can't but also making us vulnerable to choking.
The descended larynx makes the intercommunication of language rich and evolutionarily advantageous.

I disagree with ... ( 7 months ago by ksthebest)

I disagree with you on the notion that animals can't build impressive things without language. Think of termite hills, or ant hills or bunkers.

Actually animals ... ( 6 months ago by bobdull420)

Actually animals are developing languages. While these languages many only consist of 10 or so words, they are languages.
There is a video on the Richard Dawkins Channel that demonstrates this.

Simple fact, we're not descended FROM apes, we ARE apes. Bald bipedal apes with a huge brain, but apes nonetheless.

@MrKerpelWatson ... ( 6 months ago by alex123837)

@MrKerpelWatson actually there are many videos of monkeys beating university students in memoery tests and number work, and there are videos of animals having friendships and loves and ive definetly seen animals dancing.
of course animals cant read its a language we have made its like asking you to read mandarin or another language without leraning it, and anyway its scientificlly proven that we have brains speccially suited to comunication and language which we gained through evolotion.

What did god call ... ( 6 months ago by scotttebben)

What did god call the first Neanderthal? Arnold perhaps? What about Arnold's wife? What was her name? Why did god kill them off? Were they not also gods children? They buried their dead just as the judeo-christian god must have told them to. The bible does not mention this because they were not known by the superstitious, genocidal, illiterate tribal thugs who orally passed on the word of god that later became the holy book of crap.

"...they see the chimps at the zoo behaving in ways we wouldn't: masturbating and throwing their own shit at one another."
Actually, I can't think of a better way to describe humanity, especially if you allow the "shit" part to become a metaphor for politics, wars, religion, racism, personal baggage, useless wares for sale, and moronic opinions.

People masturbate to people throwing shit at each other?
