“Neanderthals:

Way smarter than any ‘Rat.”

There is a school of thought that Neanderthals may have actually been smarter the Homo Sapiens, but our species may have been healthier, nastier, procreated more, or worked together better.

I’m thinking “nastier”.

We are made in GOD’S image and did not “evolve”.

We also had numbers in our favor.

Their was a massive volcano in Italy about 40,000 years ago that probably tipped the scales against our cousins.

The nastiness was probably the final straw.

Or just run faster. Neanderthals had shorter legs. Somebody who is able to run up, toss a spear, and run off would have an advantage.
