You say Neanderthals are not a genus of humans, Christians? That they were animals?

Question

So what do you say about this reconstruction of a Neanderthal child?

Just trying to express my thoughts about some answers by Christians that are related to Neanderthals

Answer 1

Hi Yuri. I don't see anything in the skull reconstruction that even remotely looks like any "neandertal" picture I have seen. This looks like an ordinary human child's skull to me.

Seriously, though, there is such a wide variety of shapes and structures and sizes expressed in the human skeleton, even in many parts of the world today, that I have serious doubts about the "archaeology" promoting different species among humans. Neandertal, Cro-magnon, Homo Erectus, and whatever else there may be...how do we know these weren't just regular Homo Sapiens, but with a different shaped skull? Or Arthritis? Or Osteoporosis? Or maybe Ricketts? Are the Osterich People of Africa human? You betcha! How about the Pygmies, are they human? Of course!

I have a problem with the separating of humans into separate species based on what may simply be physical variation within a genome. I believe that is a destructive mind-set. "They are different, therefore they are not as human as I am." It is arrogance disguised as science.

Answer 2

That's a very nice, humanized, reconstruction.
For a long time, artists would ape-ize reconstructions of non-human hominids.
The truth is probably somewhere between.
It's a safe bet that neanderthal children looked a lot like human children.
But, they probably didn't think like us. They didn't invent agriculture. A fundy would say that God didn't give souls to the neanderthals.

Answer 3

there's no evolution from 6 billion years to 6000 years in the past , no evolving varieties , no longer something which has been preserved in caves or residing section's , evolution is a gap thought , because of the fact no longer something explains the hollow. think of of a sperm and an egg , this evolution might kill something if it did no longer or does not evolve in that very day. an hassle-free actuality of atomic power , an atom is held mutually with tips from an invisible stress , different clever it is going to explode or act inconsistently , technological awareness understand this approximately quantum mechanics , the question is , what invisible stress or scientific anomaly holds the form of the atom in place , to that end protecting the imprint of each and every thing which has atoms in it (each and every thing)

Answer 4

No such thing as Neanderthals.

The introduction to Genesis and to the whole Bible ascribes everything to the living God, creating, making, acting, moving, and speaking. There is no room for evolution without a flat denial of Divine revelation. One must be true the other false. All of God’s works are good, great, wondrous, and perfect.

Man starts from nothing. He begins in helplessness, ignorance, and inexperience. All his works, therefore, proceed on the principle of evolution. This principle is only seen in human affairs: from the hut to the palace; from the canoe to the ocean liner; from the spade to the plowshare to machines. But the birds build their nests today as at the beginning. There is growth and development within man, but no passing, change, or evolution out from one into another.

For this theory or fallacy of evolution to be true there would be evident stages of evolution today. You would be able to find species in many stages of evolution in nature right now. For this theory or fallacy of evolution to be true there would be no God. And that’s exactly what evolutionists believe and are trying prove. The evolutionist bases his or her conclusions on human assumptions and reasoning, instead of on the documentary evidence of the manuscripts.

Answer 5

Science keeps changing its mind about whether Neanderthals were the same species as us Homo Sapiens. At the moment, I believe that scientists think they were a separate species. But they were definitely animals. We're all animals too.

Answer 6

absolute nonsense these premodels of humanity were results of genetic experiment of the Anunaki who created homo sapian as the final model for slaves to mine their gold for them,
they all lived at the same time in the same place near the oldest known gold mines .
and there was not millions of years between them as evolution would suggest,
the reptilian brain we got is a souvenir of Anunaki genetics

those were some awesome pictures
i know people today who look like that

Answer 7

I love how Christians will say Neanderthals were just animals. What do you think we'd be WITHOUT THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL????

Animals do not know what Good and Evil are!!
That's what your God wanted! Not free thinking people but human LAP DOGS!!!
That damn Satan and his giving us the knowledge of good and evil. He screws up all of Gods attempts at amusement!!!

Answer 8

Looks human to me.

Answer 9

There were other hominids. This doesn't mean that they were human, as apes aren't human.

Answer 10

They did give some stunners, didn't they? Mind you, I would imagine a few of them still classify people by race.
