Adios Desmond Morris – who saw us for what we are!

Goodbye to Desmond Morris – one of my heroes. The writer of The Naked Ape and Human Zoo.

He had the audacity to look at humans as animals – just another bloody ape!

The Naked Ape: A Zoologist’s Study of the Human Animal by Desmond Morris (1967-10-05): Amazon.co.uk: Books

Well these inquisitive, inventive and highly destructive apes are presently wrecking the planet, bombing, starving, polluting, torturing and murdering with gay abandon!

Isn’t it great!

While the religious nutters talk about us being ‘created’ in God’s image (Must be the Old Testament God of vengeance and cruelty) and deny all other creatures have souls!

I wonder if Ladbrokes take odds on how long it’ll take us to finish the job?

Anyway, I digress (as usual).

All that I can saw is Thank you Desmond – a voice of sanity who demonstrated that some apes are capable of intelligence after all.
