    The draft sequence of the Neanderthal genome provides more evidence that interbreeding between Neanderthals and modern humans (((((may have))))) occurred. It showed more similarities between non-African modern humans and Neanderthals than between African modern humans and Neanderthals. This difference between regions is consistent with interbreeding between Neanderthals and the ancestors of Eurasian modern humans before they branched off into regional groups. Approximately 1 to 4% of non-African modern human DNA is shared with Neanderthals.

    I know, he once produced an article for me that was the biggest piece of speculative
    conjecture that i can remember, a pile of what ifs, could be's, its thought that, It also
    contained scientific dogma and conflicting opinion.

    The scientific consensus is that interbreeding took place between Homo sapiens and Neanderthals. The link you provided says as much. Thanks for making my point. 🙂

    And what would you know? You will be forever remembered on this forum as the man who is too scared to read science books.

    So are you an evolutionist or a believer in the Bible? You can't be both....
    This is so absurd I don't know where to begin.

    I've said a hundred times before that religion is the why and science is the how (in this case, evolution). I don't see why God must be limited to using a magic wand when natural processes are perfectly fine and sensible in our universe with our laws of physics. I see no dichotomy in believing both the Bible and evolution. God does indeed move in mysterious ways.

    if you believe god created everything then at some point he used his magic wand.

    Everyone seems to ignore the fact that when God created the life forms, He placed DNA/RNA programming information in them to cause them to reproduce and adapt. This has been discovered by scientist today and Darwin was not aware of it when the theory of evolution was imagined. This adaptation by random selection is caused by the programming of God from the mind of God. It is not by accident that life is able to adapt to changing conditions. It is the will of God. But it is not the will of God for the plants and creatures He created in different kinds to change to another kind.

    But your problem is the Bible in NO way supports your theory. Sorry.

    that's because the bible is a story book/exaggerated tribal history/song book. it is not a science book, nor does it pretend to be.

    Ok, you have your opinion and that's fine.

    Firstly you haven't answered my question about where you get your hundreds of millions figure. Please do so or admit you made it up.
    Secondly, there are thousands of fossils of human ancestors. Is that what you are looking for when you say 'missing links' or are you looking for something else? If something else, then please explain.

    Wow, you read one link!! How mighty and brave of you, did you walk round for the rest of the day with your chest puffed out and your head held high after reading one science link?!

    The simple fact is that you're a coward, and it doesn't matter how you dress it up or how much spin you put in it, that is what you are. A grown man too scared to read science books. It would be funny if it wasn't quite so tragic.
