Wanted: 'Adventurous woman' to give birth to Neanderthal man - Harvard professor seeks mother for cloned cave baby
Neanderthals have been extinct for 33,000 years, but George Church, a genetics professor at Harvard Medical School, believes he can bring them back with the help of a surrogate human mother.

Nephilim coming back. I believe it’s Biblically prophesied for the last days which we are definitely in. Goliath was one.

Lets suppose he has normal intelligence. Lets even suppose that his face isnt ape-like. Neanderthals had significantly different dimensions. Their forearms where shorter than their upper arms. Hes likely to be very ugly by anybodys standards. What will life be like for somebody whose nearest relative died 33,000 years ago? What will he think about those who created him and then put him in a world where he is the ugliest man alive. Even if he has a great personality, how will near universal rejection affect him? What happens when he wants to mate? What will his children look like? And, suppose he has no social consciousness at all? What if he isnt even close to human? What then? Just because you can do something does not mean you should.

His scheme is reminiscent of Jurassic Park To quote the character Ian Malcolm from the same movie: scientists spend a lot of time asking can we, instead of should we.

If they do figure out how to do it, they’ll discover the Neanderthal looks just like a normal human.

Neanderthal DNA isn't human. Wouldn't that be like trying to cross a cat with a dog?
Monsanto has crossed animal DNA with plant DNA and we're eating their inventions as food. No one knows what will happen to future generations of humans because of it. Babies, someday, may be born with fish heads.
This experiment is going to create some kind of animal/human species. I think it's creepy. The creature will be something like Hollywood would use in one of their "Gut 'im like a pig" scare flicks.

Since we have supposedly common genetic characteristics, it would be more like crossing a horse with a zebra, which is common.
Or, it may be more like crossing a wolf with a dog which is also possible and has been done, since there is relatively little difference in DNA of dogs and wolves..........

Neanderthal DNA isn't human.Well, Neanderthal DNA is found in modern day 'humans'. But not all humans. Guess which humans don't have any Neanderthal DNA ?
Monsanto has crossed animal DNA with plant DNA and we're eating their inventions as food.
Wouldn't that, as you said, be like " trying to cross a cat with a dog?"
