Yeah sure! Hard core science, not some libtard professor’s conjecture.

Any Freepers out there know what percentage of Neanderthal’s genome is identical to modern human? The apes were just kicked out of the human club yesterday from what I read here on the forum. Chimps are as close to humans as chickens are! What is the Neanderthal’s status?

The Neandertal Enigma
by James Shreeve

in local libraries
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]

Living the ultimate clean and literally green lifestyle ..."

Yep you bet! I wonder what the Lib Neanderthals protested against back then? Fire pits?

Clean and green lifestyle back in Neanderthal days? But, how did they treat their women? How did they celebrate diversity with the Neanderthal gay community?

So now the liberals want to praise Neanderthals for their clean green lifestyle. Well, to be consistent, we have to take this all the way, and talk about other aspects of their lives, don’t we????

And what about the global warming causes by Neanderthal camp fires??????

Anthropologists have unearthed the remains of an apparent Neanderthal cave sleeping chamber,

The Keep?

My exact thought. They must not have belched or passed gas either.

Yup, when the libs want you to live a “green” lifestyle, what they really have in mind is you living like a Neanderthal.

The Keep?

Pretty much. Sounds about right.

That is until a bunch of "gathers-together-man" run us off up north.

But I'm not bitter.

Maybe it was just a Man Cave, to get away from the wife & kids.

Neanderthal DNA is halfway between ours and that of a chimpanzee. That totally rules out any possibility of our being descended from the Neanderthal via any process resembling evolution and all other hominids were further removed from us. We are not related to hominids at all other than possibly via similar design, which is how Fords and Chevrolets are related.

“Chimps are as close to humans as chickens are!”

This is what passes for truth among creationists?

Pitiful.

Humans and chimps are more closely related to each other than either is to any other living species. Among the ape clade we are the two closest related species by DNA comparison. The genetic DNA is 98% the same, over the entire genome that includes the non-genetic regions, we are some 95% the same.

Neanderthals are not only very similar in DNA to humans, it has been estimated that some 1-4% of the ancestors of anyone of European or MiddleEastern heritage were Neanderthals.

Click it, it’ll take you to the FR topic, which has a link to the original story in which it is found. I actually tested the pic URL before I posted it, which I sometimes forget to do. :’)

Living the ultimate clean and literally green lifestyle,...

Awww now tell me there's not an agenda in play here. That statement alone shows the longing of a lib-retard and their wishes for all of us...not them mind you...just us.
