Take Your Stinking Constitutional Rights Off Me You Damned Dirty Ape!Just when you thought things couldn't get more ludicrous. Here's some of the article from Reuters; (Emphasis mine)
MADRID (Reuters) - Spain's parliament voiced its support on Wednesday for the rights of great apes to life and freedom in what will apparently be the first time any national legislature has called for such rights for non-humans.
Parliament's environmental committee approved resolutions urging Spain to comply with the Great Apes Project, devised by scientists and philosophers who say our closest genetic relatives deserve rights hitherto limited to humans.
"This is a historic day in the struggle for animal rights and in defense of our evolutionary comrades, which will doubtless go down in the history of humanity," said Pedro Pozas, Spanish director of the Great Apes Project.
The new measures are the latest move turning once-conservative Spain into a liberal trailblazer.
Spain did not legalize divorce until the 1980s, but Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero's Socialist government has legalized gay marriage, reduced the influence of the Catholic Church in education and set up an Equality Ministry.
By the way, it still sucks being a Spanish bull. Ole'!
Maybe Zapatero wants to marry a male ape?
ReplyDeleteApe shall never kill ape... ape shall never kill ape... For those who have seen the Planet of the Apes Series. This latest subject is funny, although it makes me shudder to think of how stupid the world is getting. I wonder where the common sense has gone. Need I ask?
ReplyDeleteThe evolutionist, materialist Spaniards are just showing their real faith through their laws. That generation is doomed: this same proposal would have been taken as a bad joke just some decades ago when darwinism and environmentalism were not so triumphantly boasting against a Church that knew how to respond accordingly.
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't work. I wrote this post to explain which attributes a nonhuman species ought to have in order to be granted human rights. It was written for extraterrestrials, but the same principles ought to apply to apes and other such things.
