London Zoo exhibits humans

This is one of the most pathetic things I've seen from Evolutionists. Why don't they just commit suicide so they won't plague the poor planet's ecosystem if that's what they really think we are?

London Zoo exhibits humans

LONDON Zoo unveiled a new exhibition overnight - eight humans prowling around wearing little more than fig leaves to cover their modesty.
The "Human Zoo" is intended to show the basic nature of human beings as they frolic throughout Britain's August bank holiday weekend.

"We have set up this exhibit to highlight the spread of man as a plague species and to communicate the importance of man's place in the planet's ecosystem," London Zoo said.

The scantily-clad volunteers will be treated as animals and kept amused at the central London zoo with games and music.

"I actually think the fig leaves will be enough to cover us up, it's no worse than a swimming pool," said volunteer Simon Spiro, 19, from New Malden, south of the British capital.

Mr Spiro, selected from dozens of hopefuls in an internet competition, said he was excited by the prospect of monkeying around on the zoo's Bear Mountain.

"I'm a veterinary student so the idea of working for a zoo was something that appealed to me.

"I thought it would be fun and interesting because I'm an outdoorsy kind of person," he said.

Brendan Carr, 25, from Aylesbury, southern England, wrote a poem in his bid to get on the mountain.

"I'm funky like a monkey and as cool as a cat, talk more than a parrot, up all night like a bat," it went.

"I got a laugh like a hyena but get the hump like a camel, so cover me in fig leaves as I'm the ultimate mammal."

I wanted to see pictures.
A picture is worth a thousand words isn't it?
I thought depravity dissipated from Hollywood. England is a good place also, I guess.

I'm about to plunk the Postmil view based upon the News Posts.

Sounds like a fundamentalist dispy doesn't it.
I read the bible with one eye while looking at the Newspaper with the other.

Do a google search on "plague species". It isn't what you think at first...My initial reaction as well...

Exactly my point. Why did evolution (mother nature) give us the sense of shame that we feel the need to cover up our bodies?

Romans
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth.
19 For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them.
20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.
21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools,
23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.

Try as men might they can't ignore what God has put in their mind.

Here's a small picture. Pretty stupid if you ask me.
Humans strip bare for zoo exhibit

The title of the article is just to grab your attention; the content does not match. "It's no worse than a swimming pool" is an accurate statement.

GREAT POINT!

But,you are right(preaching to the choir).I`m sure they would come up with some sort of nonsense about religion playing a role in mankind being ashamed to look upon nakedness in common public.My question though is why do "most" natives who before have had no outside influences still cover up a certain area most of the time?The only time they don`t is when done in some sort of sexual manner.An example:in some of the Irian Jayan tribes the males......well never mind.

The Human Zoo

http://www.ukattraction.com/a_print/...?&e=398ISY&a=0

Dates: 26 - 29 Aug 2005

Times: All Day

The August Bank holiday welcomes an extra special exhibit to London Zoo as a flock of Homo sapiens gather on the world famous Bear Mountain.

Human ZooPresented to the public with only fig leaves to protect their modesty, the humans will become an important feature of zoo life as they are cared for by our experienced keepers and kept entertained through various forms of enrichment.

The four day event aims to demonstrate the basic nature of man as an animal and examine the impact that Homo sapiens have on the rest of the animal kingdom.

Hey you can learn something from this. Like a group of humans are evidently called a flock rather then a herd or pod...:bigsmile:

During the 1960's North Carolina was planning to build a zoo. Speaking of my hometown, one of the most "liberal" (re: ungodly) places in America, a leading "conservative" had this to say:
Quote:
Former [North Carolina] Senator Jesse Helms, a right-wing conservative, once asked, "Why build a zoo when we can just put up a fence around Chapel Hill?"

This is the simple consequence of accepting the idea that we descended from the apes.
