No more than you have evolved, I assure you. Merely in different directions. No, I'm not a member of Satan's Army. They march under the guise of the Church.

It's hard to quit a job you love to begin with. Working with a gorilla that is being neglected and given "mad Dog, beer, pot, and meth in pop" was not a job you just walk away from. Especially when you're the only one cleaning his cage everyday unlike your co-workers. That gorilla depended on me for care and unconditional friendship and love. It was like having your child taken away and put in an unfit foster home.

You are wrong about other species. I have seen primates love, fight, play, giggle, and be jealous. Females want to be the dominant female, but can not always be, so spats break out.

Then why is he letting children die everyday? That's not love, that's "I could care less."

Well you were dealing with an illegally run operation and should have reported them to the authorities if you really cared about the gorilla.

What is the status of the gorilla and your job now?

2 probably same species examples compared to thousands of rules for 'each unto its kind' and you have the nerve to try to 'represent.' Pitiful.
