How do you explain Neanderthals?
In case you don't know, Neanderthals were the last surviving species of the homo genus, besides us. They were very intelligent, not quite as smart as us though. They used tools, had rituals, and buried their dead. It is believed that they probably had a primitive language.
Did god create man, and then create man who was not as intelligent?

I just wanted to say that I appreciate what you're doing. I gave up arguing Creationist long ago. It's an exhausting effort...
"If we came from monkeys, why are there still monkeys?"
"Actually, we just share a common ape-like ancestor."
"Yes, but if we came from monkeys, why are there still monkeys?"
Keep up the good fight!

Maybe you should ask how to explain the existance of creationists. In any case, since they are even less intelligent than Neanderthals, hopefully they will eventually die off too.

When neandetal was originally found, it was thought to be a Russian corpse and dismissed (because Russians had big brows or something?)...
Maybe Creationists use the same excuse?
Or maybe "they weren't in God's plan so were washed away in the Flood even though the Bible doesn't explicitly say anything about it and I can't present any evidence to support my claim."

God kicked satan and his angels out of heaven.
They came to earth to disrupt the garden of eden, and teach man how create warfare, seduce others and mess up the gene pool.
The great flood of Noahs day washed away all the Giants from these cloning and Nazi type expirements with humans.
Study the Annunaki and the beginning of the Sumerians.
The Book of Enoch is also a good.
Finally if the Sun were even 50,000 years old it would have been of such a size to burn the earth out of existence.

For your information, Yes God did created them, That was back in the prehistoric time frame, But they were cavemen/womem & they did not have a soul. They were the highest form in their animal Kingdom, They were not a son or daughter of God.Then God Brought on the ICE age to destroy them all Then one Day God said let us make man in our image, Then came Adam & Eve, Both a Son of God & a Daughter of God. with a soul. Yes I am a Christian

A lot of them believe that the Neanderthals were just one big hoax.

Humans.
Same explanation for various other isolated groups of humans that seem to be different than us today.
