Cannibalism

Fish commonly eat other fish of their own species. Snakes commonly eat other snakes, insects eat their own species, etc. Chickens love fried chicken. It's a constant in nature. Why are we different? Not that I want to eat long pork, but cannibalism is very common in the animal world.
I honestly think its pretty simple -
We don't have to. Since we don't have to then we can afford to apply all the "is it right or wrong. moral or immoral" stuff.
When we have to, history has shown that we do/will.

It's family is Hominidae (apes that have no tail and can gather food with their hands.) The Human's sub-family is Homininae. It's tribe is Hominini. It's genus is Homo and it's specie is scientifically named Homo Sapiens.

IF evolution is correct ::gone:
Yes, if God **poofed** us here I guess we would be none of those.
Well, I guess we would be Chordatas cuz we have a vertebrate.

God poofed 99% of human, bonobo and chimp DNA the same too.

I think they re-evaluated that to a lower percentage. Either way, they other 5% of the good stuff is what God used to finish us with:biggrin2:

I guess we all eat bananas, bleed, grow hair and teeth, and some climb trees better than others. But it appears we may not be as close as some want to believe.

Don't get too overjoyed :banana:
Don't overlook the fact that the argument is not whether we are related.... its what is the accurate % of our relation.
