Despite the time and effort spent in trying to make chimpanzees talk, results have remained inconclusive. The vocalizations that chimpanzees produce are extremely primitive when compared with the skilled mimicry of parrots. Nevertheless, no one mentions any evolutionary ties between humans and parrots. This is only one example of evolutionists' biased opinions.

Many evolutionists are known to be working toward establishing links between chimpanzees and humans, to present as evidence of a relationship between the two species. However, research conducted on chimpanzees' linguistic and thinking skills shows that they use a very simple form of sign language. Thus, evolutionists' attempts to show that monkeys are the animals most well-adapted for learning to speak have had disappointing results. This shows, once again, how no such relationship exists between humans and chimpanzees like the one that evolutionists imagine.

Attempts to get chimpanzees to talk proved inconclusive, in spite of the time and effort invested, showing how wrong the approach of the evolutionists was. Nevertheless, the press presented these studies in a distorted way. One of the most recent examples of this was a piece entitled "Can Chimpanzees Talk?" in the science and technology supplement of Cumhuriyet newspaper, 25 January, 2003. Based on a news item published on BBC's online site, this article claimed that a chimpanzee called Kanzi had been taught to speak. However, the vocalizations that the chimpanzee supposedly uttered had nothing to do with the skill of "speaking."

The press claimed that a chimpanzee named Kanzi had been taught to "speak." However, it emerged that the chimpanzee produced vocalizations that had nothing to do with the skill of speaking.

Jared Taglialatela and Sue Savage-Rumbaugh, two evolutionist researchers, claimed that Kanzi produced different vocalizations in response to certain behavior and objects, and that although the chimp used these vocalizations-meaning "banana," "grapes," "fruit juice" and "yes"-in different contexts, he did not substitute the word "yes" under any circumstances. These same researchers claimed that the chimpanzee had learned to do this by himself.

The fact is that chimpanzees cannot speak. A human's ability to speak is not based on making sounds; it comprises exceptional characteristics such as naming concepts and forming grammatically correct sentences, which no animal can master and whose source no linguist can explain. Evidently, the "words" that Kanzi used repeatedly cannot be taken as speech. However, in the same news item, the critics said that if the vocalizations were to be termed as language, syntax was also a consideration.

This point brings up a contradiction on the subject of evolutionary theory, since in fact, parrots are at least as skilled as Kanzi in terms of vocalization and mimicry. Furthermore, the vocalizations that chimpanzees produce are extremely basic when compared with the skills of parrots. However, no newspaper has made any mention of an evolutionary relationship between humans and parrots.

Objective opinions of scientists working on the subject for many years expose the claims seen in Kanzi's example as pure fantasy. Philip Lieberman, the famous linguist, emphasizes that attempts to teach language to chimps are doomed to failure:
