Not true. Humans descended from Homo Erectus via archaic Homo Sapien. Homo Neanderthalensis also branched off Homo Erectus, making the former a sister species to us.

I'll bet you can't make him remember that. I'll bet you couldn't shoot it into his brain on a notched bullet.

It's Ted. Remember how he used to claim that Neanderthals fell halfway between humans and chimps because we shared 98 percent of our genome with the latter and 99 percent with the former?

He was a case study in grasping at a particular worldview despite evidence to the contrary.
