Home sweet home! This one looks pretty nice, as caves go. I've been in a lot that were rough as a cob.

Proving once again that science is a load of crap; I just saw a show on the History channel where they claimed DNA studies disproved any cross-breeding or common ancestry. Obviously they don’t know what they’re talking about. But it doesn’t matter..........its all about selling books and t.v. shows.
paging Professor Wolpoff....paging Professor Milford Wolpoff...
In other words, there are distinct genetic differences between African and non-African populations, and these differences include genes that affect IQ. The researchers better be prepared to be burned at the stake once these findings are absorbed by the general public.
Neandertal-yutes alert.
Its a nice entrance, but i prefer the gothic arch.
What's a Yute?
I thought that place got destroyed in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade?
What they are saying, of course, is that Eurasian populations got their smart genes from the Neanderthals ~ which is probably about as popular as the “out of Africa” thesis.
How could they canoodle without actually encountering one another? Long distance canoodling? Internet Canoodling?
Ugly as those Neanderthal guys were it would take more than just canoodling, maybe some cave drawings and dino beer, before he proposed a little gene mixing with those uppity sapien girls.
Bump
Is that the new scientific term for miscegenation?
I believe they were talking about mitochondrial DNA, and found no evidence of interbreeding, Studies of other parts of the DNA show substantial evidence of interbreeding. I think mitochondrial has some unique properties with respect to ancestry that should be considered when analyzing ancestral interbreeding.
Maybe someday science will be able to tell us if this has anything to do with the differences in social developments...farming...cities...armies etc.
All these things began to emerge as Neanderthal was disappearing.
Lest we forget - Neanderthal’s brains were larger that H Sapiens. i.e., they were smarter. Another fact which hasn’t filtered out to the general public is that the size of our brains are decreasing over time. i.e., we are getting dumber.
Well, it's quite obvious the 43% of the population that are Obamanites who live off of the rest of us certainly aren't getting any smarter!!!
