restaurants with their owners does not make them relatives of man.
It is clear that such behavior does not have its roots in ape etiquette
or culture. Such behavior is the result of punishment and reward
training, and has no more significance than a circus show. Indeed,
dogs, birds, and dolphins are also used in such shows and demon-
strate impressive abilities. National Geographic TV is using and dis-
torting such images of monkeys to implant in people's minds the
idea set out in evolution that the monkeys are man's closest rela-
tives.
Conclusion
These documentaries broadcast on National Geographic TV
once again show that the channel is a blind and dogmatic supporter
of Darwinism. The claims put forward about animal behavior and
intelligence make no scientific statement at all. This channel, which
declares the apes sent into space to be heroes and tries to establish
an evolutionary link between monkeys grooming each other and
human beings going to the hairdresser, is trying to cover claims that
even children would find laughable with a scientific veneer. We rec-
ommend that if the channel is to defend the theory of evolution, it
should try to find more rational and logical arguments with which
to do so.
