Why do you portray yourself as a dumb fool when you obviously know better?
You don't get it, do you?

I'm saying that the Neanderthals are to those in the Old Testament what the Thalidomites are to us today.

With the exception that the Neanderthals were people who were disfigured by a judgement of God, but the Thalidomites were disfigured by an act of science.

To call them "Neanderthals" is just the same as calling ours "Thalidomites."

Playing dumb does not excuse you multiple bizarre off topic comments
I'm not playing dumb.

I'm giving my assessment of that FAKE PICTURE in the OP that's trying to be passed off as evolution propaganda.

Smart is as smart does.
Is that why academia has to hire an artist before they print every discovery or article on evolution?

It's smart to add pictures to their articles, isn't it?

Just make something up, add it to the article, and ... well ... as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words.

It gives the article a flair of legitimacy, and has the added effect of making the public think the author knows what he's talking about.

I am thinking that a creation/evolution blog can not work because creationists have only belief. The ToE is built on evidence and there is zero evidence for creation. The only argument creationists have is the ToE does not presently have evidence for the LUCA which perhaps that is why the creationists websites do not have forums.

It now appears that I was giving you much too much credit If you believe you are providing a logical assessment of the science in the article.

Please stay on topic and discuss this 15-year-old girl with brown, shoulder-length hair, holding a staff in her hand and inappropriately dressed.

No offense, but I neither need nor want your credit for what I believe or don't believe.

My credit card expired when I chose creationism.

Why do modern editions of the bible contain pictures?

Understanding the Bible better with vivid illustrations, images, and photos
In previous generations, drawings and flannel graphs illustrated the Bible stories, people, places, and activities. In the digital age, we first had clip arts and now we have some graphic illustrations too. As the saying goes, “a picture worth a thousand words,” meaning that when we’re learning or teaching the Bible, having good imagery can truly enhance our understanding of the Bible stories.​
Perhaps bible publishers are now modernizing.

Do find an artist's rendition of how the girl likely looking disturbing. I find the picture humanizes the girl much more that a skeleton would.

If the best you can do is criticize the presentation in the OP then you have proven my point that you have nothing but misdirection to refute the evolution science.

The credit I was referring to comes my own rendering of you. In effect, I was questioning that rendering.

Fair enough. Guess I can't argue that, can I?

I feel I've made my point in this thread: that these "sub-humans" aren't sub-human at all.

They are people who were disfigured when God passed judgement on them.

Something I've been saying here for years.

I believe even King David was so judged (Psalm 38), but forgiven (Psalm 39).

The only argument creationists have is the ToE does not presently have evidence for the LUCA which perhaps that is why the creationists websites do not have forums.
The lower orders of creationists
attempt far more arguments than that
one.
It's possible that some few have the
capacity to recognize that data disproves
at least one or more of their attempts.

Shabby frauds like paluxy man tracks are
frauds even if yec is 100% true. If one is false,
well maybe a few more are too.

Those who can see that are demonstrating
a capacity for intellectual integrity. Those whose
Faith is in themselves -infallibe bible readin' ability-
are another matter. Faith that they know more than
every scientist on earth.
Educated / intelligent Christian generally don't have this problem. Faith in God does not require intellectual
dishonesty. Anyone who is dishonest in the name of
God casts stones far beyond the capacity of any anti theist.

Some few like a Dr. K Wise, PhD paleontology have the
education, but lack the integrity.

"...even if all the evidence in the universe turns against yec
I will still be yec as that is what the Bible seems to indicate".

Honest like a bank robber openly bragging about robbing banks.

Who knows, a few of benighted among us may see this.

Must be a drag having to share this planet with blood-bought, Bible-believing, born again Christians, isn't it?

First. No one is claiming that the the newly discovered species is sub-human.

While some may believe the same as you or think differently about God's judgement is not part of the discussion of the scientific value of the only fossil find of a this hybrid species.

That would be an error. Neanderthals were a genetically distinct population. People with thalidomide-related birth defects are not.

Fair enough.

But the history of the Neanderthals is quite different from what you think it is.

In my opinion.

Remember when the Creator said/says that the born again are/or become/ wiser than their <worldly> <carnal> teachers ?

Are you talking about the "unjust steward"?
