killing each other.

Bit tangental, but did anyone see the proggie on chimps (iirc) a while back on Discovery? Bunch of stupid monkeys nicking drinks from people at a beach resort, getting hammer drunk and falling over themselves. Some astute individual got the idea to study the monkeys (read that drink and watch monkeys drink on someone else's dime), and claimed that the monkeys in this area drank to excess, drank a little, or abstained entirely in the same percentages as the group of humans they tested.

oh, actually *we* are much closer genetically to the bonobo IIRC around 98.4%.  while 98.4% is amazing *we* are still profoundly different. let me put things in perspective for myself here.  would you accept your significant other to be loyal to you their whole life except 2.6% of the time?

Dipstick, evolution is not a theory!  It just happens.  We even manipulate it to get seedless watermelons and hybrid fish and many other plants and animals we use as humans.  No need to say its absurd or to try and disprove it just because your "faith" does not agree with the natural process.   It is ok to have spiritual faith and also acknowlege the process of evolution.

yes it does, it occurs naturally within a species.  however one species evolving into a totally different species does not happen and according to the fossil record has never happened.  some of us contend that being a darwinist takes a much more liberal and abundant faith than believing in the intelligent design theory.  darwinism is a failed religion.

There are many examples of animals killing for un-necessary reasons. Gaining power and control are usually the reasons. Males fight for territory and the females that are in it. When another male challenges they fight, sometimes with one of them ending up dead or severly mamed. In some cases, the looser goes away and waits a few seasons, only to come back stronger and declare victory over the one that once beat him.

You can look at that as a survival of the fittest kind of thing, but IMO, humans are the same way, only that our "public morals" allow the weak and stupid to thrive as well.

Strangely, this thread offers the greatest evidence of our evolutionary link to chimpanzies than just about anything else I've read.  One chimp farted amidst the group, started a fight, and now they're all flinging poo at one another and rolling in feces.

the thread is proof that some countries gene pools were allmost devastated by wars and that this is what is left.
