Are humans the only great apes that can be "holy", or could, for example, an Orangutan be divine?

This guy literally just said that he doesn't believe in evolution because he doesn't feel like it.

I gotta hand it to you, you managed to give the worst anti-evolution argument I've heard yet

Actually, I have no problem with evolution. It's just that I don't believe in the forced division of species, one that puts us in the same cage as gorillas.

...but, since you have obvious sexual feelings towards these funny creatures, godspeed, and may you bring beautiful children to this world.

What does that even mean? "Species" isn't an actual thing that exists, it's a way of classifying creatures that we find useful.

"In the same cage"? Presumably you can accept that you have some things in common with the gorilla: you both have a heart, both have lungs, both sneeze from time to time, both need to sleep, etc. The "cage" is a continuum.

I have nothing to say, and I'm gonna continue to do so, so help me God.

Yeah, nah, you're boring.
