Chaka Agrees.

Yeah, it’s not exactly a leap of faith to come to the researchers’ conclusion, and it’s long overdue. Neandertals have been known to have purposefully buried their dead for decades, and known to have cared for older and/or disabled family members. The long line of foolishness about how they couldn’t talk, or were so fugly they were hunted out, or how they weren’t able to walk as fast, or even (my personal favorite) that they didn’t eat any vegetables (I guess they died of constipation), and all those ridiculous calumnies have been shown one after the other to be fabrications. It’s surprising that such bigotry persists.

You're right, of course: Who knows? I mean, how could anyone possibly know?
I think this "theory" -- conjecture, really -- is much more a statement about today's society. That Neanderthals 'way back when were better at raising kids than are their modern counterparts.

They were better because they allowed Kommon Kore in their cave-schools.

Neanderthals Roamed As Far As Siberiahttp://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/1904573/posts New Scientist ^ | 9-30-2007 | Roxanne Khamsi
"
Researchers say the genetic sequence of an adolescent Neanderthal found in southern Siberia closely matches that of Neanderthals found in western Europe, suggesting that this close relative of modern humans migrated very long distances."
Siberian Graveyard's Secret (More Redheads)http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1053986/posts International Herald Tribune ^ | 1-8-2003
"
In a medieval Siberian graveyard a few miles south of the Arctic Circle, Russian scientists have unearthed mummies roughly 1,000 years old, clad in copper masks, hoops and plates - burial rites that archaeologists say they have never seen before...In the remains of a metalworking shop, the researchers excavated a wooden sarcophagus with the best-preserved mummy of all, a red-haired man covered chest to foot in copper plate and laid out with an iron hatchet, well-preserved furs and a bronze bear's head buckle."

Neanderthals were altogether a great, great group of people.
To: familyop
I do too, and it’s in the ancestry in at least one line. :’) Thanks for the reiteration of that nice collection of FR links.

Evolutionists used to tell a quite different story about neanderthals. And if you didn’t believe it, you were a science-denier.

The British twits still claim their master-race model applies, maybe that’s what you’re complaining about?
