It's a conclusion that biblical Creationists have had for years, but their evolutionary colleagues are only recently arriving at the same: Neandertals are human. Evolutionist Michael Shermer writes, "we must reclassify Homo neanderthalensis as Homo sapiens neanderthalensis, a subspecies of Homo sapiens" (1) citing a intensive study published in the May 7 issue of Science. Shermer elaborates by saying, "our anatomically hirsute cousins are actually our genetic brothers" (1).

Unlike biblical Creationists, Shermer and many of his fellow evolutionary scientists deny that Neandertals are fellow descendants of Adam and Eve, as all humans are. Instead, the evolutionary perspective still insists that Neanderthal are hundreds of thousands of years old and are our human ancestors due to evolutionary processes. (1)

There is much evidence of the high intelligence and technological advancement of the supposed barbaric, ancient Neanderthals - including the discovery of Neanderthal jewelry and the revelation that Neanderthals were ancient sailors.

Though evolutionists are only now coming to the same conclusions about the Neanderthals as biblical Creationists, such details come as tremendous support that we can trust the Bible and its authority - like when it tells us that man was fully formed and fully human right from the beginning.
