hhhmmm...

The christianists have a problem down there.

Inkling Magazine reports that scientists have discovered, through DNA testing, that human body lice [pediculosis] have a common ancestor in the body lice on gorillas.

Research from the Florida Museum of Natural History revealed that gorillas gave us pubic lice millions of years ago, and left us playing itchy host to them ever since.

The pubic louse parasite, Phthirius pubis, lives in pubic hair and other hairy parts of the body. It sucks blood and can’t survive for long without a host.

That's pubic hair as in down there.

Now, it is not to be confused with head lice that will not go down there.

The only hairy body part that pubic lice avoid is the head, where the bloodsucking-pest niche is occupied by another louse, Pediculus humanus capitis.

So that leads to a very interesting question. How exactly did humans get the very same body lice of gorillas?

The scientists at the Florida Museum of Natural History have come up with three possible ways.

Reed and his colleagues came up with three scenarios under which pubic lice could have migrated over from gorillas to colonize the ancestral human crotch, all of which are, in varying degrees, degenerate: One, ancient hominids consumed or otherwise intimately handled gorillas. Two, gorillas and hominids shared beds – but beds only. Or three, gorillas and early hominids got it on (as in sex).

Uh oh! So we may not only be descended from the apes, we may also have caught their parasites, in bed..., while doing the nasty..., down there....

Oh, wait. The christianists don't believe in evolution. Their god created everything 6,000 years ago in 6 days. What do you think his plan was in giving man and apes the same crabs?

just asking...
