The question is were Neanderthal the same species as us, after all they bred with us and produced fertile offspring.

I'm surprised they haven't found or mapped people with neanderthal or other subspecies in their DNA? But I don't have a clue about that sort of thing either lol

I think they recently have found  something relating to that.

They have, people of the Middle East and Europe have 1-4% Neanderthal DNA in them, Africans don't have any. 

Melanesians and Aboriginal Australians also have up to 6% Denisovan DNA.

There’s your everybodys equal argument out the window, same goes for the Sherpas that guide on Mount Everest, they have dna from a high altitude hominid in them that the rest of us don’t, so was the Neanderthal really a cave beast or was he an intelligent being that gave us that adventure, work, create, invent, explore trailer from their genome,

He was very intelligent but obviously he can't have been clever enough or else he would be typing this and not some human. 

I honestly believe they were wiped out because of the first mass genocide by mankind, it's not like we are a peaceful bunch is it.

In Eurasia, interbreeding between Neanderthals and Denisovans with modern humans took place several times. The introgression events into modern humans is estimated to have happened about 47,000–65,000 years ago with Neanderthals and about 44,000–54,000 years ago with Denisovans.

there is so much written on this subject, that it would take years to discuss lol

here a tiny version on it

That can’t be right because Max clearly said that Henry VIII had the Tudor version of Jimmy Hendrix playing at his wedding and traitors gate was the start of the Nottinghill Carnival ?

Well if it wasn't for religion we'd probably have had it in the curriculum eh. Think how many centuries and lives lost to teaching creationism.....

Scandalous isn't it.

All religions have a lot to answer for, for all they wiped off the face of the earth.

On the other hand if it wasn't for the likes of religion and such we may be still hunting and gathering.

I wouldn't belive that. They were more anti science than anyone else.
