Monkey poop coffee would be more correctly called monkey spit coffee. The Rhesus monkey chews on the beans and spits them out. They're never digested.

Conversely, Kopi Luwak is indeed poop coffee, as each bean spends a nice balmy 24 hours in the digestive tract of a cat - the Indonesian palm civet.

Ah, I see you did your so-called research by going straight to Wikipedia to back up your claim. Good scholarly information there sage nods

As u/insufferableninja pointed out, historians agree there may have been a man (yes a plain ol regular man) that your religious dude was based off of. Possibly a philosopher in those times. This is all still theoretical tho. There's no concrete evidence of that specific individual existing that can without a shadow of doubt be traced back to as an origin point. So NO, his existence is not fact
