No monkey/primate ever worshipped a God.. if man evolved from primates to finally invent God then not believing in God is devolution.. and a throwback..

Therefore not beliveing that God created the Universe is monkey like and apeing behavior..
That is IF man evolved from apes.. RAP music does seem to mimic chimp social behaviors though.. posturing, making noises, walking off emotional tensions, shakeing bushes, facial and limb contortions, sexual positioning.. Its a hard choice..

Since the “races” are different, some MUST be more evolved than others, according to the theory.

Therefore, some races are SUPERIOR to others.
This was the assertion of the biology book in question in the Scopes trial.

It's merely an extension of magical thinking, which is based on intuition. Intuition and associating events together (which may turn out unrelated) is how the mind learns new things and allows for the creation of scientific theories that can then be tested, and it can help self-preserve when the intuition hits a positive, but there's the bad side as well. Primates learn about their world the same as we do, the same as babies do, just at a simpler level. I have every confidence that evolved primates would be inclined to be sentimental or superstitious. Superstition makes people cautious, and caution improves the likelihood of spreading your genes.
