THE INEQUALITY OF GRADED UNDERSTANDING
There are political and social policies at lower levels of government and society which, if the profundity of ape to human genetic correlation were fully understood, then lower forms of living would become not only acceptable to some, but more than likely forced as a way of life.
I personally, understand that human DNA is somehow similar to ape DNA. I also know that when I was reading through a recent copy of National Geographic, I was sickened to see a skinned monkey being prepared for someone’s dinner. The part that really got me? The monkey’s hand, which looks so human that it could pass for a man’s hand.
There is a proclivity among human kind to tier itself according to some sort of code. As an example: India has a caste system, based on birth. At one time, in England, the social code included a monarch, royal society, religious sycophants, knights, tradesmen and so on to peasants.
So does that mean that peasants are more closely related to apes than say, a religious sycophant? Some people think so.
Some people are born in to comfort and care and consider themselves more human than say, a homeless person. Still yet, some people believe that wealth comes from God. That is to say, that there is no such thing as “luck”. Which may or may not explain Hugh Hefner and Howard Hughes.
Most people in the field of Science do not quite fathom the vast and profound belief system within America itself. Some people just pick up bits and pieces from church, family and what they perceive to make sense in calamitous situations. Some people add bits and pieces from novels or what they read in a newspaper. Others base opinion solely on what they read in text books.
I don’t believe that I evolved from an ape. But I think it is highly possible that the ape has a mysterious connection to some of human kind. Perhaps at one time, the apes were even more evolved than they presently are. I don’t know.
What I do know is that my mammalian physicality is far behind my imagination and my thought processes. So that I’m not concerned about the ape connection and I am concerned about people becoming more ape-like. And what’s to stop them when they are deprived of sound education, dignity and basic human rights as children and honed to be like animals?
What if the dumbing down of Americans ends up their greatest demise? What if people are prone to become like apes? Will they be given free range? In Mexico, perhaps?
