Re: Different solution, not a superior one
"Superior"?? In what manner? You can sniff things better out? YOu can survive better in the cold?? You are stronger, faster running?

Re: Different solution, not a superior one
Hum. Monkeys are not ancestors to humans. That is a strawman of someone who does not understand evolution.
HUmans and monkeys share a common ancestor. Monkeys do use tools though. It is just that in the human species, the brain has evolved to be more specialised than in the monkey.
More importantly, they seem to share the same emotions as humans. They socialise, they bond, they show anger and jealousy. Are they exactly the same emotions as humans?? I don't know. It does cause them to behave in a similar manner.

Re: Chemicals and emotions
It depends on the specific area of the brain that is damaged. Some parts of the brain are for coordinatino, other parts are for higher thinking.
