It would be amazing to see if they can interbreed with modern humans and learn our speech (I suspect they can). It would be the most amazing thing to have happened since space travel, more amazing even than that… like a real life jurassic park almost.

Although I’d feel bad for the Neanderthal being the only one of his/her kind… they’d have to make at least 2 of them or it would be cruel…

In other words, they didn’t necessarily die off.

Looks like I said a no-no. Sorry, I didn’t realize the reference to ‘one’s cognizance of one’s posterior’ to be overly risque. I’ll try not to let it happen again, (snicker). =.o

Thanx for sharing. It’s ironic how *****ly attentive so many of these atheistic evolutionists can be, but then one would need to be in order to persistently believe in theories that have been repeatedly proven to be wrong or down right hoaxes. I am forced to smile every time I remember the Piltdown Man Hoax, or the faux pas concerning some Missing Link or other that was entirely and imaginatively (re)constructed from the tooth of an extinct pig. Or how about the famous comedy of errors surrounding carbon dating of a LIVING clam’s shell back in ’63, that ‘proved’ the animal was over 3000 years old! BTW, if you take all of the illustrations of Neanderthals in this article and change the skin color to dark brown, I think what you’ll have are pictures/sculptures of modern day Aborigines, nothing too mysterious. There is one definite absolute: beliefs may change but the truth remains unaltered, so also does right and wrong, irregardless of popular trends.
