The Institute of Experimental Pathology and Therapy was the world’s first ever primate testing centre, revolutionary in its medical discoveries and responsible for sending monkeys into outer space. The institute which was once the envy of the West, is now a dilapidated shell of its former glory. On the edge of financial ruin, the only reminder of its prestigious past is the horrific noise and site of the left generations of monkeys caged and distraught, but this present day site is only a fragment of the institutes more sinister history: attempting to breed the first human ape.
The institute founded in 1927 was rumored to have come into existence, as part of Stalin’s disturbing plan to make legions of industrial workers that would be inhumane in strength, while mentally subdued. This would in theory, be achieved by inseminating female chimpanzees with human sperm from male donors, in order to create human-ape hybrids that could mindlessly build cities at terrifying speeds.
After decades of circulating through the Russian Media and being entangled by myth, Russian scientists working at the institute today, admit that such experiments did take place within the institute and that most of the radical testing can be narrowed down to one man named Dr. Ilya Ivanov.
Professor Barkaya, the present day scientific director of the Institute, speaking to the Independent explains that Dr. Ivanov “took sperm from human males and injected it into female chimpanzees, although nothing came of it.” Dr. Ivanov had come to the institute to attempt the creation of the human hybrids, after successfully creating new species of horse at the Pasteur institute in Paris. The various years of testing in the early days of the institute, would manifest itself into hundreds of bizarre experiments before the epic task of trying to tackle 20th centuries diseases.
Inspired by Darwinism and Eugenics, combined with the abject soviet rejection of religion, Stalin’s deranged vision of a mechanized utopia was put to work. The desire to realize a perverted dream of monstrous sub-humans, whose sole purpose was to extend the soviet empire, was in action. However, along with communist utopian visions, the plan failed: most of the monkey’s escaped or were murdered during the crossfire of the Georgian Abkhaz War. Today only 286 specimens live in the institute.
One can only wonder though, what the new race would have looked like if the experiments had been fruitful, in particular seeing the nightmarish vision of thousands of indefinable men with bestial features, slaving away mindlessly on vast industrial zones.

looks similiar to a certain president known for chest bumping other males of his species……

yea, this is bush 100%

This is creationist’s propaganda.
From the article: “Inspired by Darwinism and Eugenics, combined with the abject soviet rejection of religion…”.
The moral of the story is, that if you believe such nonsense as evolution and Darwin’s ideas, and reject the almighty truth of the bible, you will end up trying to bring hell into earth with twisted scientific experiments.
Science took us out of an era of pain, superstition, torture and filth. Religion put us in. It was called the dark ages.
“Darwinism” is not a scientific term. It is a derogatory word used by creationists to support the idea that evolution “is just a theory”, from the mind of an old stupid man. Attack the man, instead of facing the mountain of evidence.

@coboman - absolute rubbish! The person who wrote this is not a creationist at all. He doesn’t even go to church. Environmental Graffiti in principle is against “creationism” and in favor of science. We have done multiple articles, see here: http://www.environmentalgraffiti.com/sciencetech/mummified-dinosaur-testing-faith-of-creationists/941

Someone should edit this stuff for grammar and spelling. There’s nothing more “inhumane” than unnecessary apostrophe’s. [sic]
June 6th, 2008 at 6:18 pm
Really? I’m not a fan of Bush, by any means but Being dumb is different than being evil.
June 6th, 2008 at 6:21 pm
Why is it that after an interesting article people have to try and tie into their hate for the current President or Christianity.
Lets just read the article and judge it on its own merits shall we?
June 6th, 2008 at 6:26 pm
I have to agree with coboman. It may not have been written as creationist propaganda, but the way the paragraph is worded it implies a relationship between science and eugenics. Which, is the point that ‘Expelled’ is trying to make. I understand the author’s intent, it just need to be clarified.
June 6th, 2008 at 6:28 pm
One does wonder, these people and Hitler was both into evolution big time. At the time it was hot and hadn’t been proven wrong as well as it has been today. Now science can’t even tell you why we have so many planet life, much less human life. If it was such a great “process” that made one to better the next, why did it branch? Why would it branch into so many? Why make a flower? Think about it, humans can’t do it. 2000 years ago, did humans just think about a new car? But the plants would “think” and design something as complicated as a car such as a flower? When humans couldn’t?
Hmm, someone is pulling our leg with the evolution, maybe they don’t want you to read the Bible, so that you might find the real answers to these questions. Darwin was NOT a GOD. As many who make him out to be. Either way, wouldn’t the smart thing to do is since you know so much about evolution and have studied it all your life, maybe it would be smart to read the bible just in case it has better points of view? I have studied evolution and all it does for me is make more questions than answers. Places limits on things and then in the world we see the limits broken. Thinking the system was “designed” is a far simpler way of going about it. Such is the way of science… follow the simplest path correct? So which holds true to science?
June 6th, 2008 at 6:34 pm
I am willing to bet that the quest for this type of “worker” is far from over. the periods when slavery was the norm is an eyeblink ago in terms of history. These creatures, or something like them may be easily produced in the future through genetic manipulation (not planet of the apes). The right set of designer genes and you could raise a large strong, subdued workforce. Lot’s of people would jump at the chance to have cheap labor.
Oh, and religion has very little to do with it. Just about every religion in human history has lived with human slavery and approved of it one form or another.
June 6th, 2008 at 6:41 pm
Eugenics is alive and well. Human/animal/plant hybrids have been and are being created in secret labs around the world. The globalists are still actively pursuing a sub-human slave race, whether by hybridization or dehumanization. It’s called “Social Darwinism”, look it up. Wake up and do some research people. Fight globalism, don’t allow world government or you may become part of the globalists’ (aka NWO/Illuminati/CFR/Bilderberg) perverted dream.
June 6th, 2008 at 6:45 pm
Well then, he’s either been subconsciously influenced by creationist propaganda, Chris, or he just needs sensitivity training. That paragraph is glaring, blinding- it leaps off the page and throttles anybody who’s been involved in the culture wars against the people who want science out of American (and elsewhere) schools. There is simply no good reason to say this insanity was caused by “Darwinism and rejection of religion.”
June 6th, 2008 at 6:46 pm
This story keeps popping up again, but there seems to be little to it except that Ivanov ran a series of poorly thought out experiments without an understanding of so much as the reproductive cycle of the apes he was dealing with. He ended with trying to get a (volunteer, for reasons beyond imagining) human woman pregnant with the sperm of an orangutan. A very unlikely possibility, and the orangutan died before he could give it a try.
Much as it would make a neat story to have this be part of “Stalin’s plan to create sub-human workers,” that aspect of the story has been debunked for years. Grant money was given to Ivanov, yes, but there’s no evidence that there was any “plan” or that those above him had any real idea what Ivanov intended. He was a lone researcher caught up in an insane idea, and seems to have been one of hundreds of people who got such grants and eventually ended their lives in labor camps once someone bothered to see what they were up to.
Stalin was a monster. Ivanov was a monster. But neither was particularly interested in the other’s goals. There certainly was no plan for a race of monkey men warriors.

So Bush is really Stalin’s kid ?
June 6th, 2008 at 7:01 pm
Darwinism is a term used by the most popular evolutionary scientist of our time, Dawkins. Just because he was inspired by Darwin doesn’t mean anything negative toward Darwin himself.
June 6th, 2008 at 7:03 pm
coboman has a point. The original poster refers to an “abject soviet rejection of religion” — this gave me pause. Why “abject”? You might say total, you might say uncompromising, you might say unprecedented — but “abject”? That has a certain ring which, combined with the use of “Darwinism” (which coboman rightly points out is unscientific and usually derogatory), makes the article’s tone come off a bit strange.
June 6th, 2008 at 7:04 pm
There is still hope. Hollywood could get a hold of this story and make a great scifi story.
June 6th, 2008 at 7:08 pm
im scared . . . hold my giant ape man.@!
June 6th, 2008 at 7:11 pm
There’s some interesting information in this article. However, the way it was put together kept distracting me from the actual text. There are way too many commas, for instance, and some of the words you used don’t mean what I think you think they mean.
June 6th, 2008 at 7:26 pm
Still : ““Inspired by Darwinism and Eugenics, combined with the abject soviet rejection of religion…”.” is far way too ambiguous to be shown freely without any warning.
June 6th, 2008 at 7:41 pm
“Bestial features”? I think you’re being unnecessarily hard on other animals. A combined chimp man may not be pretty but the man would ugly up the chimp just as much as the other way around.
June 6th, 2008 at 8:05 pm
@Sattelit & DJH anon.
How lame! You give bush far too much credit, a world filled with ape like sub humans would be a mirror of todays world minus the apelike. also just tacking bushes name to anything that seems remotely tyrannical or evil is impressively generic.
June 6th, 2008 at 8:12 pm
“…most of the monkey’s escaped or were murdered during the crossfire…”
Monkeys murdered?
Have you been smoking something?
Monkeys are animals.
Animals don’t get murdered.
Animals get killed.
June 6th, 2008 at 8:18 pm
Wow, I bet you don’t take your foil hat off very often, do you… Congratulations- your paranoia is boundless.
June 6th, 2008 at 8:37 pm
Unless they were part HUMAN, Ha!
June 6th, 2008 at 9:35 pm
@coboman
WOWOWOWO learn to read an intention of an article please. He is in no way bashing science in favor of religion. Please learn to read before going off the handle.
June 6th, 2008 at 9:48 pm
I was there. I am a survivor of this horrific experimantation. I was known as Ape #22345 but i am not ape, i am an orangatan but you crazy humans wouldnt listen to me. You just kep probing and probing.

“indefinable men with bestial features, slaving away mindlessly on vast industrial zones.”
That’s South London.

Europe owes it to Muslims for getting out of those Dark Ages…Imagine no soap?
June 7th, 2008 at 1:48 am
A minor quibble: We already have “human apes” - all members of the family Homidiae, including humans, are apes.
June 7th, 2008 at 4:42 am
1) There’s quite a difference between communist and utopian ideas
2) Communist ideas are very much alive
It’s also important to remember that while this experiment that was allegedly Stalin’s idea ( not that I’m defending Stalin, but really … … ), Bush, Brown, Rudd, etc, etc are all pushing for exactly the same thing: a race of idiot workers. They way they achieve this is far more simple and effective than monkey-human hybrids. They simply starve the public education system of all funds.
This also raises the interesting question of the difference between humans and monkeys. There are practically no genetic differences. By far the biggest difference is that we’ve developed spoken language, and then use this to educate our children.
June 7th, 2008 at 5:01 am
Looks more like Stalin was a leader who wanted to introduce change!!!
June 7th, 2008 at 5:53 am
@GodFear: I don’t think I’ve ever encountered such a gross misinterpretation of evolution. Thank you for shaking my already limited faith in the capacities of human intelligence.
@Everyone Talking About Bush: I thought the original two comments were more directed to the fact that Bush is supposed to look like a monkey, not that he is like Stalin or Ilya Ivanov. I could be wrong, but that’s how it read to me.
@The Article: Interesting tidbit of history, but the whole thing seems trumped up to try and make a sensationalist story. I doubt the Soviets had any diabolical plans to use ape-men workers to take over the world, especially without a basis in physical results. Nor do I think such experiments could have been as sinister or horrific as this article’s tone implies. Inseminating chimps with human sperm would have no effect on the chimps, and the individuals involved in Ivanov’s experiments would have been far less miserable than the ones used for experiments with diseases, as many still are today.
June 7th, 2008 at 8:53 am
Um, OK, why was my comment deleted? I commented on previous comments and my view of the article. Read: It was relevant. Why are you people censoring?
June 7th, 2008 at 8:54 am
Ah, nevermind, it wasn’t…My apologies. Safari screwed up.
June 7th, 2008 at 12:12 pm
What does forced cross-species insemination have to do with Darwin? This isn’t a mechanism of natural selection; or even evolution. Its just playing with genetics.
And Eugenics? I’d hardly call the outcome of these experements a super-race. If anything it would be a creature of dim wits.
I think the author of this story is either a closet creationist with an agenda, or simply grabbing at hot-button words to stir up interest in the article.
