Another dating error was identified for a skull found near Paderborn, Germany, that Protsch dated at 27,400 years old. It was believed to be the oldest human remain found in the region until the Oxford investigations indicated it belonged to an elderly man who died in 1750.

Did you all catch that?

The skull is only 255 years old, yet it appeared to be a NEANDERTHAL Skull!!

Based upon appearance, it was CALLED NEANDERTHAL!!

This PROVES that evolution is wrong, for Neanderthals have been so called ancient human ancestors, not supposed to exist today, yet when we find a similar looking skull, we label it NEANDERTHAL...only the Skull is only 255 years old!!

Evolution is such a fun theory, you can think up anything from microbes on meteors to aliens with a mission to populate the planet, but if someone says, "In the beginning, God...

"NEANDERTHAL Skull!" Is that what encases the brains of people who voted for Algore & John F'ing Kerry?

This PROVES that evolution is wrong

Wow. PatricHenry predicted in post #39 that some creationoid will be screaming about how exposing one fraudster "proves" that evolution is wrong, and only two posts later some moron comes and says exactly that.

I note all words you capitalized are lies. Is this a new Creationist policy? If so, it will make like easier for decent, honest people,

27,400 years old. It was believed to be the oldest human remain found in the region

As Padeborn is about 100 miles from Dusseldorf, where the original Neanderthal speciman was found, this tells most people that with that being called the oldest at the age dating means the Padeborn skull was classed as Homo sapiens sapiens not Homo sapiens neanderthalis.

Don't lie. Dumb and dishonest is no way to go throiugh life

Nothing in the story said that "it appeared to be a NEANDERTHAL Skull!!," so you are wrong that "This PROVES that evolution is wrong,..." Indeed even if this dishonest and incompetent professor had misclassified a modern human skull as Neanderthal it would not "PROOVE" anything.

It was believed to be the oldest human remain...

Humans were around 27,400 years ago. The remarkable thing about the find was that it was the oldest evidence of human habitation in the region. If it had been a Neanderthal skull the article would have indicated that it was a Neanderthal skull. Believe me, I've seen both human skulls and Neanderthal skulls, you can tell the difference right off.

You've got your science wrong. Neanderthals were human relatives, but evolved from a different offshoot of a common ancestor. They weren't our ancestors.

Some present-day skulls appear more robust than others and could pass for Neanderthal. A professor of mine one time made a joke about it, but I won't retell it; it would offend people from a certain state.
