I've read Ishmael, definitely a great book. Especially the gorilla shaving.

^ I had seriously been considering that this was a nonsense thread. Especially because of the gorilla shaving. But indeed

It's a book about a talking gorilla that apparently tells some guy how to save the world.

This best part in the book and the movie is when the talking gorilla drinks some shampoo and starts burping up bubbles.

My Ismael is much better because is about the talking gorilla sister and she tells some lady how to save the moon.

Ok there are two types of human civilations
Leavers that belive humans belong to the world and as such live in balance
takers that belive that the earth belings to humans and shape it as they please
only one way allows continues substainability and the other leads to eventual destruction.
Ishmeal teaches the true history of mankind
Teaches that the story of Adam and Eave and Caine and Able are in fact leaver stories trying to explain why Takers are so screwed up
Teaches that just like there are laws of physic that can be discovered through observation, there are laws of life that can be dscovered
Teaches that Takers not only hold the workld captive but are themshelves captive to a belife system that makes them oppose the world

You gotta admit the part where the gorilla drinks shampoo is very funny. It's in the book and the movie for Ishmael
