Atheism is weak. Yep, I said it
Hey hey sir
Haha nice one. Its not hard to have fun, most ppl around are too ridgid.
Ill check out what you got for me and will reply when i can. Heads up i may be weeks off a reply. A have a long list of ppl to get through.
Cheers

Weak since Neanderthal had a larger brain size than today's Humans. That's why the article listed the other "evidence" as more folds in the brain. It is obvious that today's Science cannot tell us the difference between Humans and animals. God did in one verse. Genesis 6:4
The sons of God (prehistoric people) were NOT Human since they evolved from LUCA in Water. Humans are Adam's ancestors, who was made with a greater intelligence than ANY creature who evolved from water. The sons of God disappeared as they inherited Adam's superior intelligence in ONE generation. Genesis 10:10
No evolution needed. Only descent with modifications, like inheriting God's superior intelligence. Genesis 3:22 Cush, a grandson of Noah had Nimrod with a prehistoric woman and Human history, on this Planet, can be traced to that event. Today, there are some 7.7 Billion Humans with scientific evidence inside their DNA which confirms this.

No so, since the bottom of Adam's small firmament, which God called Heaven, Genesis 1:8 contained Adam's entire Earth and it is STILL there. The firmament was made on the 2nd Day in Water and protected Adam's Earth from the water which totally surrounded it for many Billions of years. Genesis 1:6-8 It has been in Lake Van, Turkey for only 11k years. It's the most valuable treasure on Earth.
There was NO flood on the present Earth but the flood destroyed, totally and completely, Adam's entire world/Universe. 2 Peter 3:6 and Isaiah 24:19

Which what you'd expect, because they were much more muscular than anatomically modern humans. The size of you brain is as much a result of your muscle mass as it is of your intelligence, since neurons are required to operate them. Women, for example, tend to have smaller brains than men. But if you account for the difference in mass, the difference in brain size goes away (or maybe reverses; some evidence shows women, adjusted for mass, have larger brains than men.
Hence the EQ. (encephalization quotient)

New insights into differences in brain organization between Neanderthals and anatomically modern humans
Eiluned Pearce, Chris Stringer, and R. I. M. Dunbar
Previous research has identified morphological differences between the brains of Neanderthals and anatomically modern humans (AMHs). However, studies using endocasts or the cranium itself are limited to investigating external surface features and the overall size and shape of the brain. A complementary approach uses comparative primate data to estimate the size of internal brain areas. Previous attempts to do this have generally assumed that identical total brain volumes imply identical internal organization. Here, we argue that, in the case of Neanderthals and AMHs, differences in the size of the body and visual system imply differences in organization between the same-sized brains of these two taxa. We show that Neanderthals had significantly larger visual systems than contemporary AMHs (indexed by orbital volume) and that when this, along with their greater body mass, is taken into account, Neanderthals have significantly smaller adjusted endocranial capacities than contemporary AMHs. We discuss possible implications of differing brain organization in terms of social cognition, and consider these in the context of differing abilities to cope with fluctuating resources and cultural maintenance.
As a different sub-species (some even suggest they are a different species), it's really uncertain how intelligent they were, compared to us. I see no sign, other than their cultural conservatism (their tool kit remained essentially the same for a very,very long time) that they were inferior to us in intelligence, and they may have just been differently organized to solve problems. They obviously found ways to survive in extremely harsh conditions, when anatomically modern humans were unable to compete with them in the worst of those climates.
The cerebral cortex is where the thinking happens.
The cerebral cortex is the largest site of neural integration in the central nervous system.[2] It plays a key role in attention, perception, awareness, thought, memory, language, and consciousness.
Cerebral cortex - Wikipedia
The folding of the mammalian cerebral cortex is an adaptation to increase the surface in a limited space. And yes, it does indicate intelligence.
In fact, we are animals. The difference is that God makes each of us a living soul directly, not though the agency of nature.
Humans have obviously evolved over time. Anatomically, there have been numerous changes, and today, we see various evolved changes in different human populations for different conditions. Would you like to learn about some of them?

The word soul, as used in the formation of Adam means "being". Adam was NOT made in the image of flesh, but prehistoric people were as evidence by their bones. We were NOT created by God the Trinity but instead, "formed" by the Hands of Jesus, called Lord God in Genesis Genesis 2:7 to be like Him. We lost our image like God when Adam sinned and was found in the likeness of flesh, just like prehistoric mankind, but with the mind of Christ. 1Co 2:16 ONLY the descendants of Adam have inherited his intelligence which is like God's. Genesis 3:22
I am a converted evolutionist. Looking like Humans does NOT make you one. The ONLY way to become Human is to inherit it from two other Humans (descendants of Adam). That's the Truth of Science, Scripture, History, Genetics, Math, and every other discovered Truth mankind has found since the Ark arrived.

If you think that you can disprove evolution, then you apparently DON'T know it enough. People with greater understand than you of evolution have failed to prove that evolution is wrong.
And if you think evolution is a religion then you REALLY don't know enough about evolution to claim you know enough to know it is wrong.

Not only is it self defeating to use the "evolution is religion" argument. It also casts doubt upon the beliefs of the person making that claim. It is rather strange that people with religious beliefs try to insult science by calling it "religion". By doing so they are showing that they do not have very much faith in their own beliefs. It is not the strong in faith that oppose evolution. Again and again I see evidence that it is the weak in faith that cannot handle the theory.

The reason you find coral in Michigan is NOT from a global flood . The western side of the North American plate was pulled down ( towards the core) allowing ocean water to flood the Midwest and part of central Canada . This fact of marine fossils in the Midwest has been misused by creationists to claim evidence for Noah’s Flood when that is not what had actually happened (see previous post)

I could follow what God did. He told the complete History of the creation, including future events, more than 3k years ago, in the first 34 verses of Genesis. It's proof of God since NO man could tell us:
That God didn't create water since it must be compounded in the explosion of the first Stars within our Universe.
