Everything they say about them fits some people today. They are just guessing about the Neanderthal. They need to look around their labs, I am sure they have a few working there, or they need to look in the mirror! |

I also think it would be a good idea to have several from different mothers at the same time. Otherwise the kid will grow up as an insane, maladjusted outcast. It's good to be open-minded, just don't let your brain fall out. |

BAD WOLF User ID: 30099585 United States 01/21/2013 06:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sure it's neat that they figured out how to. But why? Why would they want to do something like this? This would be showing how arrogant these geneticists are because it is playing god. They shouldn't even be thinking of bringing back something like this unless there's a really good reason. If anything why try bringing back the Wooly Mammoth or the Saber Tooth Tiger ( Smilodon) ? Or how about something that had gone extinct due to humans overhunting in the past? Messing with the Neanderthal genes and having a woman of today giving birth to one would be throwing in things into the mix where they shouldn't be. De-evolving comes to mind when I think of this. This idea is just wrong. Last Edited by BAD WOLF on 01/21/2013 06:17 PM "The trust of the innocent is the liar's most useful tool"- Stephen King |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 32069520 United States 01/21/2013 06:51 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Okay, mindfu@k time. So what if this child is allowed to breed. Would there ever be 2 allowed alive at once. What if they breed and bring back Neanderthals. what if they were better suited for survival, but we have weakened. What I they take over again and we go instinct. Then the legacy of humanity would have been they brought back thier main competitor and were their own undoing. The very brains that brought them success ultimately were their doom. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 18097125 I suspect the kid would be sterile, rather like the offspring of a horse and donkey. White people have Neanderthal DNA yet they are here... |

Obviously. This kind of shit is what got Nazi doctors to the gallows and rightly so. |

I think with the neanderthal exposed to our modern education and society, he would be strikingly more intelligent but have less patience toward learning due to an overwhelming desire to socialize, screw women and be on the move. therefore along with his robust physique he would be well suited for athletics. although he would excel he would still be regarded as "that neanderthal freak". whether he is handsome or ugly remains to be seen. |

Homo sapiens outbred Neanderthals and eventually interbred with Neanderthal man. Reminds me of: DNA testing has shown that European and Asian populations all have a small percentage of Neanderthal DNA. People of African descent have no Neanderthal DNA. World technology advances have generally come from Europe & Asia. Maybe some Neanderthal would be a good thing to get back into the population. |

Who knows what 30000-year-old disease or genetic defect we are bringing back into the world? Maybe these neanderthals-human hybrids will prosper and start to interbreed... The day could come when it is no less frowned upon than any other mixed race child. Will we see a rise in male pattern baldness? Or will it be arthritis or some other degenerative disease?

The Guy User ID: 5145260 United States 01/24/2013 03:51 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What people don't seem to understand is that Neanderthals are humans. In fact, they might have been superior to us in every way except for the capability for long-distance travel. They were stronger than us, tougher than us, and, in all likelihood, smarter than us. We're the economy-class human. They were the deluxe model. It's good to be open-minded, just don't let your brain fall out. |
