just because your problems are bigger than mine, doesn't qualify you as being better than me; but sure, we need apes, like we might encourage buying stake at the butchers and a quasi-Narcissus reflection in Darwin... that's what happens when presupposing someone's supposed idiocy, it happens that way in democracy, without a autocratic godhead of authority, many more are prone to being prescribed madness, because being sadistic with dementia patients and those disabled is all that more rewarding than when a "patient" can punch you back, ******-nose your face... and this is how Christianity makes sense? might as well call the adherents of Christianity children wetting their beds and fuelled by a desire to maim their fellow examples of the species... Darwinism will not do... it's a farce... the animals involved to a categorical grouping would not do what humans do to each other... so we evolved from monkey to escape the tiger and the snake? i hardly think tigers or snakes killed with sadism involved... for pleasure... but if the sadistic impulse was always ours... we evolved for no good reason... i'd rather experience the hunger of the tiger or the snake than experience the sadism of a fellow human being... and that's a humanism, it doesn't invoke a god or morality that should be kept... i'd rather a tiger **** me for sustenance than some trivial bog-standard thief from the London estate knifing me for a ******* bike... i'd rather end up in a tiger's digestive system than in the "evolved" court-of-law debating bicycle theft - animal-cohesiveness knows no sadism, human-overpowering of animals knows everything but humanism, hence the need for humanism per se, poetry and a novel... we write poetry but at the same time perform holocausts... if we are evolutionary products, we are by evolutionary standards a successful paradox... we contradict the pluses with the negatives we produce subsequently... we have evolved / transcended the original parameters... but we did so paradoxically; i'd still rather die from a tiger easing my death by the vampire-bite of my neck that the exfoliation abiding with the electric chair or the iron maiden... the author of the Bonfire of Vanities got it wrong... we really did use our imagination... we used imagination for the expression of torture... Disney can do **** all than quack like a duck to quiet simply approve the endemic continuance of the practice... because most people will simply apply for t.v. and come dine with me spectaculars.
