A Connecticut company (454 Life Sciences) and Germany's Max Planck Institute have made recent breakthroughs in developing the genome of a Neanderthal man, which shows a 99 percent-plus similarity with that of humans, according to a July New York Times report. If they succeed, it might be possible to bring the species back to life by implanting the genes into a human egg (provided, of course, that some woman volunteers to bear a Neanderthal baby).
We can ask him the truth about evolution!
What do you think he'll say?

Lets say this would be true and some Neanderthals were cloned. Would they be considered human with certain unalienable rights, or animals to be kept in zoos and labs and studied?
Would you let your daughter date a Neanderthal?
Otherwise I doubt they would have much to say about evolution until they studied it.

What's the source of this information? How would they synthesize the DNA? Would a modern human be able to produce a viable Neanderthal offspring?
Seems like bad science to me, or even pseudoscience... Reminiscent of the Ralien's human cloning. Could just be the media misunderstanding the science or putting a science fiction spin on it to interest readers.

It would be a clone, not a time traveler. It wouldn't have a clue what you're talking about. Clones are born just like any baby. It would just have the exact DNA as whomever it's being cloned from. It still has it's own mind.

He'll probably grunt quuite a bit until he learned the language. Then he'd get into the night life, partying and drinking, carousing with women, appearing on Letterman and we'd never get to ask him.

He won't say anything he hasn't learned from us. What the original caveman knows isn't imprinted in his genome. He'll basically learn what we teach him, and he may have learning limitations because he's genetically a different species.

anybody invents his very own certainty. In Mexico a bother-free expression is, "each suggestions is a international." So if a individual contains those issues in his certainty, they're actual to that individual. different hassle-free certainty options contain politics and faith.

I think he would say, grunt grunt snort, grunt grunt fart, snort.

I think this , if possible , is playing God, and I wouldn't care what he said.
