Would god want a chimpanzee attacked person to continue to live?

With a messed up face, ripped off hands and ears, and nose? Is it sinful to let the person not survive...not to sound harsh?|||Bow before godzilla you pathetic earthling.|||There is no reason to senselessly take a life, including your own. I don't care how terrible you feel your life is, no matter the circumstances, your life is a gift from God, a gift that should not be squandered.





Take Harlequin ichthyosis for example. This is about the most terrible condition that I could imagine someone being born with. But despite the drawbacks, there are a few who manage to survive and live productive lives.|||Only the Lord knows why such sad things happen to people. The ones who can bring help are the drs. of course using their medical knowledge to reconstruct such . People have survived fires and have had reconstructions done and they have lived to tell others about it. It happens in life, and those who want their loved one to live choose to do so. Those who choose not to have their loved one to live will deal with God in the matter later when they too will die. I am not sure why such things happen, so only God knows why they do. He can give help, hope and healing to the heart of those who are struggling there. But it will take a long time and only He knows the answer there.|||Traditionally God used bears to murder large groups of children.



Edit, well I don't know about 'true' but it says it in the bible, god murdered 42 children because some of them took the mick out of a bald man:



"2:23 And he went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head.



2:24 And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them."|||"God" destroys parts of the earth sometimes with quakes that cause buildings to fall, sometimes ripping people's arms or legs off, and they still survive, so I suppose He DOES want them to live! I guess that to a God, NO amount of suffering is harsh!|||one thing is for sure, if God wanted that woman dead, she would be dead now.





i'm sure that dear woman who had her face torn off by the chimp is grateful and happy to be alive. as a matter of fact, i know she is. i saw her interviewed, but she had a scarf over her face.|||Of course not! A bear-attacked person maybe, or a lion or tiger, but a chimp, no way Jose!|||Did this actually happen? It seems pretty specific....|||Thou shalt not kill. I'm sure that person would count his blessings just to be alive.|||Yes, if not, God would've killed him.|||Why does God have to be involved?


Aren't some things happenstance?|||Why don't we let the person decide that?|||he would understand if they croak off.

Say u were stuck on an island, and there was a chimpanzee.. You taught the chimp things and you've grown?

Connected with it. If you had to reproduce and save the race, would u impregnate a female chimpanzee?|||lol











yeah probably|||I don't think you can, I've been trying for years with my chimp wife but to no avail. I think we might have to adopt. The only question is, should we adopt a human or a chimp.|||You think it is so easy, you big ego.


Will the chimp accepts you; she has other suitors of her own kind.

Do Chimpanzee male fathers care about the baby their wife (female chimpanzee) gives birth to?

or does the male chimpanzee father have no connection to the children his female chimpanzee wife gives birth to.|||Male chimps typically play no particular role in parenting beyond having sex. Mind you, I wouldn't rule out the possibility of some observations of exceptions to that, but I don't happen to know of any.|||Males do not participate in raising of young other than to kill those that are not theirs.


To Elaine here - some lesser primates have the "concept" - in marmosets father and mother are forming a pair of caring parents (not married in church of course but their bonds can be even stronger than in most humans)|||NO!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's ridiculous! CAN'T=They have ZERO concept.



Animals do NOT have wives=marriage is a human LEGAL contract.



%26amp;chimps are NOT very "similar".|||No

Would a human be able to overpower a chimpanzee?

My friend says that he thinks he would be able to overpower a fully grown, healthy chimp.


I know that these animals are far more powerful than humans, but how much damage could one of them do to a healthy male human.|||Chimpanzees would be 5 to 8 times stronger then your friend. If he's a exceptionally dedicated bodybuilder, then the chimp might be only twice a strong.


"A 165-pound male chimpanzee named "Boma" registered a pull of 847 pounds, using only his right hand (although he did have his feet braced against the wall, being somewhat hip, in his simian way, to the principles of leverage). A 165-pound man, by comparison, could manage a one-handed pull of about 210 pounds."

Add in the chimp's teeth and he's really outclassed.





While they're cute in the movies, they're not domesticated and get more aggressive with puberty. Even trainers will suddenly get attacked without warning.|||The reason why humans are smarter than chimpanzees is directly related for how chimpanzees are stronger than us. We evolved differently because we lived in environments in which we needed to use our intelligence rather than our strength, whereas chimpanzees are opposite.





This is all generally speaking of course, there are occasions where humans are stronger, but on average, theoretically they should be somewhat stronger.|||I am Jim Pan Z.


No not really. Icabod is right. Chimps are in a different league. If he got in a fight with a male chimp, it would probably first rip off his testacles and then bite off his fingers. This happened to someone recently and is a typical thing that chimps do. If he survived that, the chimp might just pound him to death. Your friend is clearly ignorant about how strong they are. They can easily move into the trees and catch monkeys. I am guessing your friend would have a hard time catching a sloth in a tree.|||Your friend sounds like a retard. I think you should take him to the zoo and have him fight one; to the death. For a banana.|||your friend has zero chance.





Similar to the 1st post: I read that a female chimp in a rage pulled over 1,000 lbs on the 1-arm pull. Chimps gouge eyes, bite genitals, there is no way....|||I think his massive increase in height would top the chimps strength. plus could pick up a rock or stick to club it with lol.|||Of course human can. It depends on his height and weight for both humans and chimps.

Would a pygmy Chimpanzee make for a good pet?

I know the regular sized ones are dangerous, but how about those small ones?





I saw a show on TV about these peaceful chimps that don't fight but have a lot of sex.





No, I don't want sex with it!!





Just for a pet.|||No primates make for good pets...initially they're cute and cuddly, but when they reach sexual maturity they often become aggressive due to their frustration in being kept in an environment for which they simply were never intended, and you would be amazed at the strength of these guys...even the little ones can be stronger than humans.





The ideal relationship between man and pet is for both to be happy. Most wild animals don't fit that bill and to keep them as domestic pets is usually harmful to their spirit and development, which can result in poor health as well. You also would need to check with your local animal regulations...not all animals are legal to own in all areas. Either way, however, I really would suggest you re-consider the choice and get something that will be as happy in your home as you are to have it there.|||as fun as it would be,


the chimp would not be happy. And where would you buy it? Its also probably illegal. Plus, I think chimps should stay in the wild or in zoos.|||yes but no

Are humans capable of physically dominating a chimpanzee?

Is it possible for a human to be stronger than a chimp?|||Generally no, unless it is a baby chimp. Chimpanzees are quite strong and notoriously aggressive.





The ones you see in TV shows from less enlightened decades dressed in human clothes, smoking pipes, etc, are baby/young ones.|||No. If you took maybe some 500 pound goliath maybe. But theyre roughly 12 times stronger.|||No way. A chimp would tear a human apart.|||Maybe a newborn but doubt a full grown

Would a chimpanzee be better served as a pet to a good home, or left alone in it's natural habitat?

This good home would have a spacious, wooded, (boundaried) outdoors, proper facilities, and other chimps.|||A chimps habitat is completely different from ours; they are arboreal while we are terrestrial. I think for a full grown chimp that have already been living in the wild would have a VERY difficult time being served as a pet in a home. A newborn chimp would have better chances being served as a pet, since it would be raised domestically in a home as a pet.





But honestly, i think they are best being left alone in their natural habitat.|||if you know chimpanzee's well and have a backround with animals and its legal then u could have it for a pet otherwise i think it should be left alone|||Taking a healthy animal out of its natural habitat does not make it happier, it just makes ignorant humans feel better about themselves.|||Left alone. I prefer that to a zoo as well.
