PinGGG!..........................
Yeah, more like apes?
My Neanderthal ancestors were murder in a genocidal invasion from Africa. Africans owe me reparations for cultural emotional damage they caused
No kidding, ANIMAL man vs mankind made as we know him, in God’s image...
Did they fashion the entire skull models from a piece of cranium about the size of a walnut? That’s the sort of thing they done in the past.
I’m no expert on this subject...and I didn’t even stay at a Holiday Inn last night. But it seems to me that they had a lot in common with us...more than we have in common with gorillas or chimps.
And yet they knuckle-drag among us.
So the speciation process continued despite inbreeding.
Creatures that are not the same species, but close, can only produce offspring that are sterile. Horse and donkey=Mule. You ever see a thoroughbred mule?
If you buy garden hybrid garden seeds they produce great crops, but the seeds will not reproduce themselves. There is usually a warning on the package telling you this.
Some people will buy and plant hybrid corn getting a great crop, then plant the seeds and expect the same The stalk may come up but the ear of corn is a failure.
A hypothesis, which many scientists will disagree with.
Very little actual evidence, lots of speculation.
Consider that most dogs, wolves and coyotes are all capable of interbreeding and producing viable offspring which can reproduce. They are all pretty much just variations on one large species.
Yeah, well, it was late on a Saturday night, last call, and the Neanderthals began looking a lot better than they did earlier in the evening.
This is news?
Professor Chris Stringer, Research Leader at the Natural History Museum and joint author of the paper, says: “In the context of Neanderthals and Homo sapiens, we need to regard speciation as a gradual process that occurred over more than 400,000 years. It is correct that the two interbred where they were not geographically separate, but over time differentiation continued to a point where the two were distinctly different species. When the Neanderthals died out around 40,000 years ago, the two species were in the final stage of the speciation process and were developing reproductive isolation from each other.”
If this "occurred over more than 400,000 years", then we're talking about a very gradual amount of speciation (baby steps taking 400K years). If the earth is 4 billion years old, IMHO that doesn't give much time for such slow speciation to evolve goo to human beings.
But on the other hand, the Cambrian Explosion had 50 to 100 new phyla (many of them going extinct) all of a sudden appear in the fossil record within a 400K year timeframe. It's like, natural selection is too slow to do the job. But God can make not just new species, but also new genus and even new phyla appear whenever He darn well feels like it.
Ok... so if Neanderthals were a separate species and every race but blacks has Neanderthal in them.. does that make blacks a different species than all other humans?
Trusting the science is impossible anymore
And origins of man is pretty hot
Crafty Neanderthal or dumb as rocks homo erectus
Nobody is honest much
And every dept of note carries an agenda or is intimidated
Think East Anglia climate control lies
This is academia today is especially anything close to RACE
If humans came out of Africa and MET Neanderthals, then Neanderthals were ALREADY there. Does that mean not all humans have African heritage??
More and more research with less and less clarity 🤨
Nonsense. Most living people still carry DNA from our Neandertal ancestors. Oddly enough, the Stanford prof who took a giant crap on the anthropological (in this context, morphological) approach and helped spearhead the move toward DNA comparisons also dumped on the Neandertal, using no or at best insufficient data and morphological arguments. Not pingin', just addin'.
Neanderthal (D) and humans (R) are indeed not the same.
People are still thinking we descended from non-humans?
Did they not get the memo?
A species used to mean a group of individuals who could interbreed successfully, period.
The “Endangered Species Act” decided no species, no matter how insignificant could be allowed to go extinct, no matter the cost or impact.
“Professional Biologists” suddenly had important and high paying jobs finding new species to stop or blackmail developers and project, testifying as grand and learned experts in court.
The biology professional organizations like this one focussed on ecology and speciation now call a subgroup a species if it looks a little different and is in a different location. Gee whiz, wonder why. What possible incentive would there be for that?
Thicker fur, different coloration, different reproductive preferences; by those measures human “races” and “ethnicities” are separate species.
