"Ota Benga was captured in 1904 by an evolutionist researcher in the Congo."
No, Ota Benga was captured by a missionary (Samuel Phillips Verner) in Africa, NOT by an evolutionist. Deal with it.
"Unable to bear the treatment he was subjected to, Ota Benga eventually committed suicide."
Yes, this is true... except it was AFTER he left the Zoo and was working at a Tobacco factory in Lynchburg, Virginia.
It's amazing the lies that creationists will make to get to heaven.

Yeah, but on that page there was another evo fraud that sounded REALLY TERRIBLE. Something about Piltdown Man? I've never heard a creationist mention that one before. Apparently the whole evil cult of evolutionism would collapse without Piltdown Man to sustain it. I think people should be told about it. And that other evil evolutionist lie, the Haeckel Embryo Diagrams. And there is Piltdown Man too. And don't forget the Haekel Frauds. Not to mention Piltdown Man! (Did anyone remember to mention Piltdown Man?)

"ideas have consequences."
Evolution - the idea - placed a human being behind zoo bars....consequences
Verner fancied himself a missionary but early on reconciled his former beliefs with darwinism..which he belived in fully...racist that he was.
