My point is that it makes no sense in the framework of reality and that you might as well go with the literal story of Adam and Eve or whatever mythology you want, because throwing Neanderthals into the mix does fuck all in terms of making anything believable. It’s literally as scientifically justified as the Norse creation myth about a giant cow licking salty ice to uncover the gods.
The question was how it could possibly co-exist, an answer was proffered, and you felt offended by the thought and a need to squash it from existence? Meanwhile, how certain are you of any reality? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_in_a_vat
If someone asks how the sun works and the answer proffered is midgets in fire retardant outfits running a big engine, it's perfectly reasonable to dismiss it with predjudice.
