enlightened_dawn should pay attention to this. According to John, this million-year-old book portrays monkeys as willing partners in genocide. They fought alongside Rama for eighteen months, until every member of the clan they decided had to be wiped from the face of the planet was dead. Some commentaries on the Ramayana say that this clan numbered over 100,000 people (the entire population of modern-day Sri Lanka), before Rama decided in his Infinite Wisdom that they needed to be exterminated. I understand that you've been saying that in your view monkeys are warm and fuzzy and cuddly, and thus that's what you have in mind when you call people on this forum monkeys. But now you know the Truth, as revealed by this Holy Million-Year- Old Book. And as John has told us many, many times, this work is part of the Vedic Literature that is synonymous with Eternal Truth. Thus, according to this book of Eternal Truth, modern-day monkeys are most likely descended from their counterparts in the Ramayana, who were practitioners of genocide. Maybe you'd do better by calling the people who don't accept what *you* are saying as Eternal Truth "koala bears" instead. They're warm and fuzzy and cuddly, too, and they don't have a history of genocide. :-)
