(April 2, 2013 at 8:11 pm)Simon Moon Wrote: Bonobo chimps, our closest relatives, have been observed with behavior that sure looks an awful lot like morality, including:

Sharing food with other group members, even when in short supply.
Protection of other group members.
Adoption of babies when mother dies.
Punishment of violent group members, usually ejection from the group.
Sadness when member dies.

And more.

Which god is responsible for Bonobo morality?

Hanuman.
