Non-Africans carry around 2% Neanderthal DNA in their genomes — yet there's one chromosome where DNA from our ancient cousins is nowhere to be found.

fascinating — thanks for links for further reading.

So they interbred themselves into extinction, perhaps? Any absorption was like a mop up of the few remaining folk.

[HypatiaTaught]

Thank you for these links! Can’t wait to learn more!

[redfreedom]

Hmmm, inbreeding? So when the good Lord put us on Earth is it possible those creatures thought of as being links between chimps and man were just deformed inbred idiots?

[fruser1]

in spite of the fact that other groups lived nearby

So this group went extinct because they didn't have the bags to cover a two-bagger's face.

Apparently the Hobbit had it wrong. Thorin was both the son and son-in-law of Thrain?

[roving]

I don’t buy that the earth is over 50,000 years old.

Neanderthals were Muslims?

2 Peter 3:5-7 KJV

“For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: but the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.”

Some believe that this verse refers to the Flood of Noah, others believe that it refers back to Genesis 1:2, whereby Genesis 1:1, “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.”(whenever this happened, perhaps millions of years ago). 1:2, “And the earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep”. (this verse demonstrating what the earth looked like at some point in time(again, perhaps millions of years) after Genesis 1:1.

What could have taken place on the earth between those two periods? Lucifers Kingdom, all sorts of animals including man as an “animal” rather than man “made in the image of God” as we are created now. Why else would the Bible say “Let us create man in our image”? It doesn’t say “Let us create man, and make him in our image”. By saying what it does it suggests that “man” was already a known commodity.

You can thank a Neanderthal for that hairy back of yours.
