Why do Evolutionists discriminate against Neandertals?

hey genius....neandertals lived at the end of the last ice age 11,000 years ago -- their body figures PROVES that they lived in a very cold climate....ie...short, dense bones. Had they lived in a sunny, hot climate their body-styles would have been completely different. That's why homo erectus in Africa is taller than neandertals to the north -- it's all about climate.
Neanderthals are believed to have died out by about 30,000 years ago. What is your evidence that they lived afterwards? And their body figures don't prove anything about the climate, not with hominids who had the capacity to mold their environment.

Why didn't neandertals adapt using their super plasticity or their invisible source of adaptation that is hidden from the view of science?

A lot of it is hidden because it just does not survive time. Neanderthal were living in a ice age. This has an advantage if it is cold enough that the meat does not rot and lasts a lot longer. But this also requires the use of fire to keep warm. They had to be able to make clothing and a tent to live in. So this would have required them in the very least to be able to use a needle and thread to sow skins together.

It could be that a new technology had come along. The modern man learned how to spin and weave. So they could make their clothing out of plants fibers and spin the hair of animals to make thread and then clothing.

The problem is this sort of essential stuff of life just does not survive time for very long.
