Re: Were Neanderthals another species of Homo Sapiens?

Because you have ZERO reading comprehension. The claim is that we
so called "moderns" today are about as distinct from Neanderthals
as two populations of cattle believed to have diverged about 0.5
million years ago. The cite estimates that there has been one
human species for most of the last 2 million years. Now do you
think you can work out the "Significance" or can I further taunt
you?

Sorry for trying to engage with you. Carry on.

You have never ever tried to engage with me. Like now.
You saw a cite claiming that humans were as distant from Neanderthals
as two populations of cattle that diverged HALF of a million years
ago, and this means we're two different species. Then you saw another
cite that says there's been a single human species for most of the
last 2 million years, and you said that you couldn't see the relevance.
You never read it, you clearly didn't understand either side and
yet you're pretending that you were "trying to engage?"
Engage... with that?  Random bullshit?
You didn't read either cite.
