[_ Old Earth _] Neanderthal Man.

[John]

Neanderthal fossils of the skull of a man were discovered in Neander Valley in Germany. The discovery of these fossils convinced millions that scientists had now proven the ToE of man from ape-like ancestors. However , further research has reveal that Neanderthal Man was actually a modern man. An analysis of the deformed skull revealed that this deformity was caused from a Vitamin D deficiency. This Vitamin D deficiency produced the disease know as rickets, which accounted for the unusual ridges over the eyebrows and his curved leg bones.
Most people who were taught the ToE in high school still believe that modern humans are descended from cave man ancestors with heavy ridges on their eyebrows. However, not one of the other fossilized skeletons in the supposed evolutionary series has demonstrated these heavy brow ridges.

Scientists have concluded that all of the so-called primitive features of the Neanderthal people were due to pathological conditions, or diseases.

Neanderthal skeletons are now officially classified scientifically as homo sapiens neanderthalenis. , in other words, as normal humans. Interestingly , these Neanderthal men possessed skulls with a brian that is actually larger then the brains of most humans alive today.

Again, scientists leap to the conclusions they want to leap to with incomplete information, then pass them along as facts, particularly to our children.

How do you explain the other differences which are shown in this picture then?

[emphasis mine]That is plain wrong. I'll give just two examples of other fossils with such eyebrows:

Homo erectus:

Homo ergaster:

Where do you get all this evidently false information from?

Reference please.

Neanderthal skeletons are now officially classified scientifically as homo sapiens neanderthalenis. , in other words, as normal humans.

Normal humans are classified as homo sapiens sapiens, in contrast to these. You also shoot your own foot yourself by pointing to the classification, as if diseases were the cause of the differences, then this would not warrant a different classification as a subspecies.

one is short the other tall ? :roll:

your point ?

some i dig up from books, other is just common knowledge with no source whatsoever

Reference please.

just what i've been taught.

you can classify anything anyway you wish it means nothing .

The picture outlines a whole bunch of details on which the skeletons differ. Please take more than just a one second look at it.

your point ?

Which books? They apparently contain false information. Common knowledge? Where can i read more about it then? It seems to contain quite specific details which are plain wrong.

Well, it was you who introduced classifications as an argument, wasn't it?
