Attack of the Theocrats!
I can comfortably agree with the idea of producing one, two, or five chimpies for research purposes, assuming we keep them in humane conditions.
If they'd turn out to be more or less comparable to a human in terms of intelligence, self-consciousness and whatnot - I'd assume they should have a basic set of human rights.
Chimpy worker drones are an absolute no-no. I can't even begin to describe how wrong this is, joke or no joke.
