I cannot trust a monkey to perform a heart surgery in my chest, even if it means that these monkeys are capable of selectively improving their fingers movements and become "more" reliable.That's right, you can't. You can, however, trust an ape...but only one species. Your species. That might have something to do with developmental differences in our respectively evolved brains - particularly since monkeys have much -much- better hand eye and manual dexterity than we do. They're faster problem solvers with better short term memory, as well.
Living in the trees aint easy. If we -could- train a monkey to do heart surgery, they'd be a hell of alot better at it than we are.
Let's not forget it's not outside the realm of possibility for robotics to advance to that stage as well. But then they're a product of 'intelligent design'. Fucking co-opting bastards turning evolution into something tawdry.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?
