Chimps are more like humans than we knew

Exclamation 
Chimps are more like humans than we knew
Here's a link to an article that basically says that young Chimpanzees have been observed playing with toys and thus using imagination, something it was once believed by society that only humans had.

http://www.sciencenews.org/view/generic/...with_dolls

Of course, fundies will continue to deny this, as they deny that we share about 98% of our DNA with Chimps and Bonobos. Most likely, they'll claim that this behavior was taught to them by humans or placed in Chimps by the devil to decieve us. Alternatively, they'll just say that it's completely fake.

What falls away is always, and is near.

Also, I am not pretending to be female, this profile picture is my wonderful girlfriend. XD
