Neanderthals not human ancestors- Old news...

I heard this, on the radio this morning in the car. Not by BBC, some local station. So I check it out online, and it's OLD NEWS!

I'm thinking wait a second, I don't recall this.

Sure enough, BBC is possibly the likely source. So do modern scientists have to re think evolution, many missing factors, and it keeps getting more misty. Seems we "humans" have many possible genetic cousins, but no direct family.

The biggest conspiracy of them all.

I too thought this was old news. I remember hearing it over 2 years ago (can't remember where) where they supposed that the Neanderthals were an evolutionary branch that went nowhere.

The Neanderthals were not close relatives of modern humans and represent a single species quite distinct from our own, scientists say.
3D comparisons of Neanderthal, modern human and other primate skulls confirm theories that the ancient people were a breed apart, the researchers report.

Others claim Neanderthals contributed significantly to the modern gene pool.

Neanderthals not human ancestors

They must have never met my cousins

NEO You don't believe in evolution

Actually I believe that humans are a creation that has evolved but not in the way our current science community sees it.

That is something I have never heard before. Could you expand more?

I would agree with this posoition. Look at the biblical life spans degrading over time. Could our size have done the same thing?
