               Space is devoted to the comments of a veterinarian regard-
               ing a monkey which was brought to him for treatment. The
               veterinarian states that some of the medicines he used for the
               monkey were actually human medicines, and cites this as
               evidence that the two species are related.
                   The fact, however, that medicines
               can prove to be effective
               in both species
               provides no
               evidence

                                                         The comparison is
                                                 merely one made in line with
                                     Darwinist prejudices. It is quite natural that
                                 similar chemicals should benefit both man and
                             apes. Both species share the same biosphere and the
                         same carbon-based organic molecules. This common
                    structure applies not just to man and apes, but to the whole of
               nature. For instance, human beings produce medicine from the
               blood of the horseshoe crab. Yet this does not mean that man and
               the horseshoe crab are related. On the other hand, kidney trans-
               plants carried out from chimpanzees to human beings represent a
               serious blow to the claims of similar physiology. Dr. Keith
               Reemtsma of Tulane University carried out more than a dozen such
               transplants from chimpanzees to human beings in 1963, but all the
