Americans aren't necessarily culturally stupid, but media treats us as such. it's sort of a vicious cycle... if they'd give us things in their original form, we wouldn't grow.
A few vocal (generally 'religious' fanatic) annoying people scare companies into 'softening up' their products. I severly annoys the rest of us, to be condecended to like this.
first thing that popped into my mind was : are these chimps trained to respond to things to get food- as an initial way of establishing communicaiton (like with most animal training)?
If so, the it makes sense. Plus, we know the chimps aren't attending weekend frat mixers, smoking pot, and/or sleep depriving to study for tests or complete assignments. :D

"I’m a christian also and have seen him do amazing things, so why don’t they include a higher power? I agree that it is in the box thinking, and these are very unrealistic scenarios. And may I ask what the five very stupid people are doing on these tracks?"

He has a nice natural talent (even if the result is that he sounds like the opposite gender!)
I'd love to see him in an initial audition for American Idol, just because it would be great to see how surprised the judges wold be.
