So, who bred with the Rhinos?

One sample makes a bad theory. The samples have been contaminated with human cells in the lab so lets wait for several other different samples.

First it was monkeys- now it’s Neanderthals. What’s wrong with these people? /s

Where are the race pimps claiming these results are racist?

I don't get it... my whole life I have had to endure the race pimps telling me that the only difference between whites and blacks is the amount of melanin in our skins, and that other than that we are identical...

But now scientists are saying every race BUT blacks has up to 4% of Neanderthal DNA... um... if I have 4% neanderthal DNA and blacks don't... doesn't that mean blacks are only 96% similar to everyone else?

Proud to be part-Neanderthal, quite frankly.

Great article - thanks for posting.

“...that was based on DNA recovered from a 30,000–50,000-year-old finger bone found in a cave...”

LOL!!! (More later if I can stop laughing.)

The still-prevailing out-of-Africa theory is at the basis of black claims that whites are descended from blacks. But the migration out of Africa, if it took place, was so long ago that the races were not so nearly distinct as they are now. In other words, a lot of evolution was yet to take place. This makes sense to me and perhaps to other evolutionists on FR, although probably not to those who dismiss that evolution took place at all.

And, now is about the time when some liberal academic is gonna tell me I’m descended from a monkey, or an AFRICAN “Lucy”, huh?
