. LA zoo is fantastic and there are plenty of animals to observe. The employees were friendly and provided educational facts to the public. This is the second time that I visit LA Zoo because I want to observe the activities and behavior of some selected primates. I spent most of the time observing all the animals and learning about them and their native habitats. LA Zoo is laid out by continental area‚ so the primate exhibits are scattered throughout the zoo. I began with the New World monkey located

Because my neighbor does not believe in God I think it is important to first share the evidences for God such as order‚ harmony‚ and complexity. The presence of a conscience also indicates a creator God. Humans were created in the image of God not animal. The evolution model predicts a common ancestor of man and apes.

aquatic ape hypothesis takes a different approach. This hypothesis states that the ancestors spent time on land and in the water where they learned to catch their food and thrive. The capability to survive both on land and in the water gave the ancestors an advantage because they were able to escape from any predator that may have arose.

Studies show that humans are not apes and easily distinguishable from apes in the same manner ducks and pigeons are not lions and wolves respectively.
