We are monkeys...

Just looking for some thoughts and opinions on this video.

http://www.thatvideosite.com/view/2808.html - Basicaly some guy owns the human race. 😛

Nice interpretation of the human race lol and it got me thinking. The bit that intrigues me most has to be about happiness... Do you as the people feel like you must be happy? Why is this?

I will NEVER say I came from ancestors that were monkeys, though it might be true........I GOT MY PRIDE, ya know..... There are many other theories that haven't been explored.........Kay, I said it.......now I'll leave..........

I WAS NOT A MONKEY, IN ANY WAY AND ANY FORM......Neither was anyone in my family..........noooooooooooOOOO

Mindship Snap out of it.

no.......humans no more descend from monkeys than gorillas or orangutans do. We are all apes......descended from other apes. Monkeys are but one branch of the ape family tree. That's like saying poodles descend from German Shephards. Poodles and German Shephards simply descend from other canine species from varying points in history.

Who says this is the only view............what we have here is only the latest science.............what if another science comes along? Study history, they also thought they had all the answers............

I am descended from my parents, and they're still around. Hell, so's my grandmother on my mom's side.

We're descended from apes. In the words of Brandon Boyd, "Another day in the life of apes with ego trips".

I know. 😐 I was stating the fact that if they think we think humans descended from monkeys they obviously don't know what we say when we mean biological evolution and common ancestors.
