No wonder Homo Sapiens are so obsessed with sex. Our ancestors would grab anything walking on two legs.

This is not science but conjecture and theory. Where is the data on the steps of the scientific method.

Interbred? How so?
If early Homo Sapiens bred with others, and they produced others, then, they were of the same “species”, meaning, they were all of the human species. Never mind calling the Neanderthals or Denisovans or Africans or whatever; they were all of the same species of animals.

It's worth pointing out that bit really has nothing to do with evolution either way.
If they produced fertile hybrids, they were the same species. This is just 100% humans being "interracial".

That means we’re all African-Americans.
Where’s my reparations?

If these scientists desire a wild melee in which SJWs go on the attack, this sort of thing would probably set it off.
To: dfwgator
I would be for reparations if:
I didn’t think it would actually hurt blacks and,
The reparations were in the form of a divestment of federal lands.

How is this possible? I was taught that two different species, even though close enough to produce offspring, the offspring will be sterile.
Horse+donkey= sterile mule.
Cow+bison= sterile cattlow.

I have a book of MORE OR LESS, NO SWEAT cartoons from the Air force. One of them show astronauts being prepared to settle a distant planet populated by strange creatures that look half crab monster. The astronauts laugh and the officer says...”After a few years, she may start looking pretty good!”

The total sum of the two sets of discoveries - interbreeding in Eurasia and now in sub-Saharan Africa, suggests that just like homosapiens, early hominids also migrated widely on earth.

Looks exactly like a modern Women’s Studies professor at Yale. :)

>>Given the rate that genes mutate during the course of evolution, Dr. Gokcumen and co-authors calculated that the ancestors of Sub-Saharan Africans interbred with the ghost hominin species as recently as 150,000 years ago, after the two species evolutionary path diverged from each other some 1.5 to 2 million years ago.
Hmmm. Didn't the Battlestar Galactica crew come to Earth 150,000 years ago?
