Actually, our body hair density is about the same as a chimp. Our hair is just thinner. |

That's ridiculous. |

Once I entered a state of very mild insanity. I lived on a very busy, noisy road near a port. The house was a hovel. I was very angry with 'civilisation' as I thought it was brutal, cruel and unspiritual. I gave all of my posessions to my neighbours except for a few items I would need to survive in the wilderness. I went deep into some woods far from the city to live on nature's terms as that would be spiritual. I had undergone a lot of survival training in the past and was confident of my ability to live in the wilderness. I envisgaed living another decade or two at the most, my end would most likely be illness. I say very mild insanity at the start because I hadn't even considered my family in the matter; I hadn't considered my relationship with the emotion of loneliness; my attachment to modern 'creature comforts' and the pulling effect they would have on me. After a few days I was sitting by my fire in the early evening. I heard a genderless voice (very strange, believe me) say, 'Don't turn away from the world. Go back into it and make it a better place' |

Not true. Human infants can instinctively hold onto their mother and other trusted adults. I've seen it happen and had it happen to me. We're also way better at climbing (with just a little practice) than any landbased mammal. Didn't you climb trees when you were a child? |

Hmm well, I was joking about us making piss-poor monkeys, I mean it's true but it was a complete side-issue to the actual discussion. |

Oh we can fuck monkeys... we just can't get them pregnant. Thus monkey-fucking is actually safer than human-fucking. For humans I mean. |

Fixed, too bad you caught that before I realized that like 2minutes |

Can't monkeys also get HIV, and humans can contract it from them? |

Is this haunting picture proof that chimps really DO grieve? | Mail Online |

So how come we can't breed with them? Again, if species is the potential for a population to interbreed with each other, then we should be able to breed with them and make fertile offspring. But we can't because over generations, we've adapted to the environment we were allocated to the point that we can't breed with them. |
|
So we're species of chimps, yet I swore |

WE ARE A SPECIES OF MONKEY. We are ALSO a species of ANIMAL. Monkey is a non-scientific group that over-arcs Chimps, Apes, Humans, etc. |
|
Nevermind...I was just saying we're species of a common ancestor, but that ancestor wasn't a monkey.:/ |

Not until at least the 3rd beer. |

I agree strongly with all of your post except for this. |
|
No. A species is not "the potential for a group of poulations to interbreed in nature". What you defined is a type of potential, not a group of animals. |
