I mean...Willohroots, you must be a freaking genius. I mean there have been plenty of PhD anthropologists (some with multiple PhDs and post doctorate work) who’ve spent their entire lives studying the Neanderthals and they don't claim to know. <BR/><BR/>We do know that the Neanderthals not only expressed creativity, but buried their death with some ceremony. Certainly scripture is silent on them. <BR/><BR/>So no one else seems to know what you have figured out with great confidence. That’s why I would like to ask God Himself about them . . . there is no way for me to search it out on my own, because no one in academia (or theology) knows. Maybe I should just meet you at Starbucks and ask my questions.MJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09240462070445948163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-878914472051909043.post-3167140863560835552009-02-06T21:10:00.000-08:002009-02-06T21:10:00.000-08:00Mj i am sorry you took it that way, I don't mean ...Mj i am sorry you took it that way, <BR/>I don't mean a spirituality contest, I mean There are Great Questions out there and Lucy and Neanderthals don't get on my list, but delinquent miner's comment got me on the right perspective. I did think those were like the greatest questions in your mind and that this was the order you would ask them. I am sorry. my serious pedal was stuck to the floorboard. <BR/>I take second place to seriousness however, to Delinquent miner who can find anthropological reasons to think God may make him extinct. Tool using, and deer drawing they may have been, but human, no. They did not know right from wrong. It was our ancestors that were the first. Lucy is , well, did you actually see how small the skull fragment is? you have to have a lot of faith to draw the rest of that in. <BR/>Sorry, I was just thinking of different questions of global importance like why some believe and some refuse. <BR/>don't grow up to be spiritual like me. You will say things people take wrong and no one will like you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-878914472051909043.post-61147988062327458632009-02-06T16:10:00.000-08:002009-02-06T16:10:00.000-08:00I will comment too that is is Part I of my curious...I will comment too that is is Part I of my curious questions as I have hundreds. Also, I'm not listing them in importance but randomly. I do too think these (first)question are extremely important for many people. I know of plenty who would never consider Christianity as being true because they can't get past these.MJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09240462070445948163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-878914472051909043.post-49138680028099557252009-02-06T15:42:00.000-08:002009-02-06T15:42:00.000-08:00Wait a minute...

Personally, I believe they were people (as opposed to some primordial chimera). And as people, I believe God had to have loved them, at least as much as he loves me. If he can capriciously snuff them out for no other reason than... well, what can I trust him for? I just don't think the questions are all that odd.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-878914472051909043.post-27980590964138986932009-02-06T13:58:00.000-08:002009-02-06T13:58:00.000-08:00What WAS I thinking willohroots? You're right,...What WAS I thinking willohroots? You're right, I really am a complete idiot and totally unspiritual. Thanks for helping me to see that.We should never have questions or be curious about anything. I hope I can grow up to be as spiritual as you someday. :>)MJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09240462070445948163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-878914472051909043.post-89211336168642338522009-02-06T13:24:00.000-08:002009-02-06T13:24:00.000-08:00This is the best you could do if you met God or Je...This is the best you could do if you met God or Jesus? Age of the earth, who cares? Lucy is ridiculous, If the The Leakey's were prosecuting attnys they would not get a conviction. <BR/>Neanderthals? You are in the presence of the I am and you think a failed species will come to your mind? These are things you can search out on your own, if you are with God, when you get your face out of the dirt, if ever, ask Him WHY? Why are we here why does it hurt why no nuke <BR/>Satan, why why why??? Lucy , Neanderthal, Think man!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
