This seems to be about a millimeter away from saying that blacks are less evolved than (or "evolved differently from")whites.

We've been here before. Didn't turn out well.

This research indicates that there is a very significant genetic difference between the black and non-black populations.

The researchers need to watch their backs, once the non-politically-correct implications of this are thought about.

"An X-linked haplotype of the Neandertal origin is present among all non-African populations"

The absence of Y-linked genetic material implies that descent is entirely through mating of Cro-Magnon males with Neandertal females. This would be consistent with Cro-Mags killing off the Neandertal males and taking the females.

Ok, let me get this straight. Scientist say that modern humans came out of Africa AFTER neanderthals died out. Therefore Africans have no Neanderthal DNA. However, how could any modern human have neanderthal DNA if they evolved from Africans? How are they determining “African” and “non African” populations? Did Europeans evolve separately from Afircans or didn’t they? Seems to me the DNA says they did.

So Canadians are stupid enough to pay for these worthless junk science studies, too. I guess that proves they are Neanderthals.

Sounds like someone mated with lady gaga's ancestor way back when.

I expect politically incorrect science to be denounced as racist on liberal sites, but it’s surprising to see it happen here. Either this research is correct or it isn’t. Whether some people use it to disparage one group or the other is secondary.

Granted, the racial argument has some entertaining aspects. Blacks are supposed to be inferior because they’re *not* related to Neanderthals?
