First thing that came to my mind from the headline was Michael Jackson.

Modern Humans, Neanderthals May Have Interbred

[sgtbono2002]

Excuse me I am just a poor uneducated boy, but if darwin is correct and we evolved , it would stand to reason that somewhere along the line humans and neanderthals were interbreeding, so wheres the surprise?

[dljordan]

I had a brother in law that I swear was a crossbreed. That was the hairiest boy I've ever seen. Looked like the Wolfman.

Just how long after beer was invented did humans start picking up Neanderthals?

[lawdude]

"According to the researchers, these early Homo sapien bones show anatomical features that could only have arisen if the adult female in question had Neanderthal ancestors as part of her lineage. "

The, "...that could only have arisen ..." comment proves the disingenuousness of the "researcher"! Science is NEVER (almost) this positive. And here, I would say never.

My first thought when seeing this post was of those Jane Auel books. You know, "The clan of the cave bear" stuff.

I always appreciate reading your posts out here.

"There's not this shining moment where the Neanderthals all disappeared because we ran out of the forest and clubbed them to death,"

Shining moment, huh?

Neandertal wimmen had just the right junk in the trunk. Oops, sorry, where is my mind at? Will ping this probably tomorrow sometime, I need some sleep.

The Neandertal Enigma
by James Shreeve

Frayer's own reading of the record reveals a number of overlooked traits that clearly and specifically link the Neandertals to the Cro-Magnons. One such trait is the shape of the opening of the nerve canal in the lower jaw, a spot where dentists often give a pain-blocking injection. In many Neandertal, the upper portion of the opening is covered by a broad bony ridge, a curious feature also carried by a significant number of Cro-Magnons. But none of the alleged 'ancestors of us all' fossils from Africa have it, and it is extremely rare in modern people outside Europe." [pp 126-127]

"There's not this shining moment where the Neanderthals all disappeared because we ran out of the forest and clubbed them to death," said Laitman

Only to an evo would clubbing other humans to death be considered a "shining moment".

Who could blame them - those little red-haired neanderthal gals are just sooo cute!
