No doubts the revolutionary monkey is a free thinker, while
the lion --Satan himself-- is Biblical to the core. The former
welcomes evolution while the latter hates to welcome change.
They however, perhaps by divine design, perhaps because the
small is usually smarter in order to survive, have a reversed
philosophy that belies their true nature: the Hungry Lion is
Darwinistic while the monkey is cooperative.

"By Their Deeds You Shall Know Them," says the Bible.
Well, the monkey is also given to Epicurean philosophy and
has a banana...

I bet you know a character like this lion...

THE LAW OF THE JUNGLE Once upon a time, in the deep jungle,
lived a Lion and a Monkey... One day the Monkey, tired of the
Lion always taking the LION'S SHARE, and seeing that such
injustice represented a danger to all, demanded JUSTICE... The
Lion, yawning and stretching, said, "You would have to have
paws and sharp teeth..." Then the Monkey, who was very clever,
devised a plan: He would go to the costume store, and look
like a lion...

When the HUNGRY LION saw him, noticing that the new lion
wasn't a match

for him, and fearing COMPETITION, killed him on the spot
--before the indifferent look of the little animals of the
jungle... And that's how the Law of the Jungle was
re-established one more time... (NOTE: Other monkeys
survived him...)

***

But to tell you the truth, this monkey wasn't very clever in
dressing like a lion. The real smart monkey knows better and
would do this...

(Based on the slogan: MAKE LOVE, NOT WAR? "Make love, not
war," was not just a protest against the indifference and lack
of humaneness in Vietnam; it was also a positive statement
that love between parent and child, teacher and pupil, fiance
and fiancee, and husband and wife is an activity we should try
to pursue in

the house when work is not necessary. It is the one real
source of truth, beauty, and salvation in a community where
deceit, corruption, and impersonality seem to be rampant.
-Jerome Kagan)

The smart monkey shows his cleverness...

And what better way to make love than to give the banana to
the roaring

lion? The monkey knows that the lion is more powerful than
him, and knows he better use his own weapons, so he decides to
be funny, that being his natural gift. The story goes like
this: The lion roars: "Monkey, I'm made to eat meat, so you
better come down right now." And the monkey replies very cool:
"Mighty King, that's doubtful as the Bible says you were
vegetarian, so you can eat my banana..."

T-SHIRTS NOW AVAILABLE (while some of these products may not
seem related to a revolution, they emphasize the slogan above:
MAKE LOVE, NOT WAR)
