WRONG!! The Neandertals were human beings, just a slightly different species from Cro-Magnun man - i.e. - us.
The next version of 'human being' will probably be a genetically-engineered 'superman', or a 'super-computer'.
We'll probably kill the first, and un-plug the second. It's our nature.
Geez, I bummed-out myself! I'm goin' fishin'.......FRegards
