Chimp Chat Study Confirms Language is Human
by Brian Thomas
Animals communicate but not with language. Where did language come from and why do we humans all use it? Evolution-based answers are restricted to options that leave out a Creator, even when evidence points right to Him. Conventional researchers have long grasped at any skinny straw that might bolster the belief that language evolved. The latest such straw seems skinnier than ever, and it comes with an inadvertent admission of a creation-friendly answer.
A team of researchers from mostly European universities found a “correspondence between human and chimpanzee face-to-face communication.”1 Their research was published in Current Biology.2 Chimps and many other animals take turns when exchanging gestures. We humans, too, take turns when we talk. This team discovered that the short moments between turns last just about as long between chimps and humans.
