Human Rights For Apes in The US? (Almost)

Evolutionists want to see humans as animals - and animals as humans. According to the journal Science,

An animal rights group known as the Nonhuman Rights Project filed lawsuits in three New York courts this week in an attempt to get judges to declare that chimpanzees are legal persons and free them from captivity.”

This thinking would be impossible without Darwinian evolution that attempts to see humans as evolved primates and nothing else.

As it is, other primates do not file lawsuits, because they can’t. There is a huge intellectual gap between humans and animals that no jurisdiction can do away with.
