But then, how do you explain our evolution within our own lifetime to "modern humans"?
Why?....William F. Buckley, showed us the way...He will be missed. :^/

Some hold that the Neanderthals were harem-keepers and that Modern Man did them one better by pioneering the nuclear family structure.

Physical evidence cannot tell one way or the other, however.

Also a mystery is the artistic/technological explosion among humans about 40,000 years ago. Modern humans did not seem to live any differently from the Neanderthals until that moment.

Alien monoliths, anyone?

I read that the Neanderthals were physically much more massive than us. That the tendon attachment points on their bones are huge in comparison to ours.

I know when I see a skinny guy with comparatively large hands and massive wrists I know not to arm-wrestle him.

Or it might not have, and people who make stuff like this up might be utterly ridiculous fools with too much time on their hands.

They’re just protein molecules, basically.

Not alive by any stretch of the imagination.

Draw a circle on the wall, list all probable causes and maybe’s, throw one dart! You probably came as close as anyone else.

Occam's Razor is useful here for discounting the moon bat theories such as this one. All animals have variations on a theme alive today except for one: humans. There were many humanoids in the past but despite their high intelligence they all died off. The simplest explanation is that they were killed off in war, by us. Modern humans are remarkably all the same and that's because war trims the competing tribes down to best of breed, culture, and technology. Narcissistic leftists refuse to accept that man is a war maker by nature so they grasp at every moon bat theory they can.

If that’s the case, then why should this process stop? What’s the last remaining tribe to look like? Any predictions?

Someone ate the baby
it’s rather sad to say
Someone ate the baby so she won’t be out to play
We’ll never hear her whiney cry or have to feel if she is dry
We’ll never hear her asking why why why
someone ate the baby

Someone ate the baby
it’s absolutely clear
Someone ate the baby cause the baby isn’t here
We’ll give away her toys and clothes
we’ll never have to wipe her nose
Dad says that’s the way it goes
someone ate the baby

Someone ate the baby
what a frightful thing to eat
Someone ate the baby though she wasn’t very sweet
It was a heartless thing to do
the policemen haven’t got a clue
I simply can’t imagine who would go and (burp) eat the baby
