Thats it. My atheism is no more. An army of monkeys? Building stuff? Thats my kind of religion!

Seriously, why don't the government say 'Ok, you may be right - just provide some evidence of the monkey army and we will back down'

Sheesh, burden of proof, you must know by now that religion is right and it's up to those that don't believe to prove that religion is wrong :rolleyes:

I for one welcome Ram and his army of monkeys.
Who says they can't do a better job than the US Army Corp of Engineers on the levees of New Orleans?

If the army of monkeys can build a bridge, they can also build a drawbridge!

They got the myth entirely wrong. The bridge was built by an army of modified attack baboons. The Army Corps of Modified Attack Baboon Engineers, to be exact. More about this from William Deagle, MD, here. (http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/bastard/2007/08/the_911_nut_that_got_away_dr_w.php) Excerpt:
They have them set up so that they have remote operating controls, so they have a kill mode and they have these nano-armor that can stop pretty well anything. Any 80 lb baboon can pick up a 300 lb man and tear him literally in two. They can run at 35 miles per hour, and they can jump 15-20 feet in the air. So I don't think you are going to outrun these. And their plan is to create supersoldiers.

The report would have been received better if it hadn't ended with the statement, "Suck it, Ram!"

This just in, the National Park Service recinds all signs and documents declaring a geological origin of the Grand Canyon, favoring the local belief that it was carved by Paul Bunyun as he dragged his ax behind him on his way to assist Pecos Bill in riding a twister, with a rattle snake for a bridle.

:boggled:

On the other hand, should someone make a canal through the Grand Canyon?

The monkey belief is silly, but if this is the kind of rock formation that starts that kind of belief, it may be worth protecting on its own.

I wouldn't have any problem with them wanting to protect it because it's an interesting and beautiful natural formation. It's the desire to save it because a god built it that doesn't make any sense.
