Contemporary Europeans have as many as three times more Neanderthal variants in genes involved in lipid catabolism than Asians and Africans.
Although Neanderthals are extinct, fragments of their genomes persist in modern humans. These shared regions are unevenly distributed across the genome and some regions are particularly enriched with Neanderthal variants. An international team of researchers led by Philipp Khaitovich of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, and the CAS-MPG Partner Institute for Computational Biology in Shanghai, China, show that DNA sequences shared between modern humans and Neanderthals are specifically enriched in genes involved in the metabolic breakdown of lipids. This sharing of genes is seen mainly in contemporary humans of European descent and may have given a selective advantage to the individuals with the Neanderthal variants.
The researchers analyzed the distribution of Neanderthal variants in the genomes of eleven contemporary human populations of African, Asian and European descent. They found that genes involved in the lipid synthesis contained a particularly high number of Neanderthal variants in contemporary humans of European origin, but not in Asians and Africans.

What do people think? This news proves that Europeans are different.
I'm still drawing an opinion but this is pretty interesting. I only wish for more proof. What is ironic about this study though is that Neanderthals are extinct yet have an selective advantage. It's still pretty unclear here though.
Modern man and Neanderthal are both derived from a common ancestor who lived about 500,000 years ago, but modern humans probably do not have Neanderthal ancestors in their family tree, a new DNA study concludes. The DNA extracted from the ribs of a Neanderthal infant buried in southern Russia 29,000 years ago was found to be too distinct from modern human DNA to be related. Not all Researchers agree. A 24,500-year-old skeleton found in Portugal demonstrates that Neanderthal man and early humans intermixed and produced children, said Erik Trinkaus, Ph.D., professor of anthropology in Arts and Sciences.

Yes you mixed with Neanderthals and are slightly different. Somehow your gene pool is still the weakest.

I guess that would explain why the Europeans conquered the World. Hmmm interesting berry interesting. Just curious - where do Native Americans fit into this racist scheme of yours ?
Europeans were the last in a long line of peoples that conquered and enslaved it's subjects of defeat...

Well its not a scheme for one thing. Its a news report. Yes it would explain why Europeans conquered the world. All that inbreeding and mixing with Neanderthals obviously made Europeans violent and jealous of the peace and prosperity other people lived in. They say due to the crowded conditions in Europe people frequently ate each other. Neanderthals had the mental capacity of an autistic child I understand. There may be mental implications the cause European violence and the Neanderthal angle (which was an earlier form of man) may account for the lack of respect for others. Some of the worlds most violent incidents occurred in Europe. Who knew Europeans are closer to simians than other people?

If you look at slavery historically European slavery has always been different. The word slave comes from the Slavs. Europeans were also the only ones to mandate that all other peoples were savages and therefore it was their God given right to enslave them and take their land. Europeans definitely suffered from a mindset of scarcity brought on by the crowed conditions in Europe. This Neanderthal angle could explain the aggressive nature of Europeans as they were mere brutes.

I see you are completely ignorant of Human History in addition to your ignorance pertaining to Current Events. The Primitive World - which includes Europeans, Africans, Asians, and Native Anericans ALL lived in a state of continuos warfare - with extremely rare exceptions they never knew peace. The myth of a peaceful noble savage is just that -a myth.
So far as the Neanderthal and whether they bred with homo Sapiens, it is possible - but not proven. If in fact homo Sapiens and Neanderthal were two distinct species, as science postulates, than breeding of HonoNeanderthalis and HomoSapien would either not produce children, and if it did they would be Sterile - such as the case of Mules which are the product of a Jack-Ass and a Horse.
The Range of the Neanderthal went far beyond Europe - it extended well into Asia , the Middle East and quite possibly [although this is uncertain] Northern Africa.
So far as their Intelligence being the equivalent of an Autistic Child - this is also probably not true.
they had a greater Brain to body weight capacity than modern Homo-Sapiens. Neanderthal brains were 13% larger than our own brain size, The average brain size is larger than the average modern human by almost 200 cubic centimeters. . This cranial capacity allowed for large cerebral hemispheres. Neanderthals were intelligent thinkers. ....
A factor in detremining the reason for their extinction is quite possibly their large heads and bigger brains, The infant mortality rate would have been exceptionally high. Competition from HomoSapiens probably contributed as well,but the theory of the opposing thumbs ..yada yada yada .. has been debunked.
Neanderthal and Nephilim
Neanderthal brains were adapted to allow them to see better and maintain larger bodies, according to new research. Although Neanderthals' brains were similar in size to their contemporary modern human counterparts, fresh analysis of fossil data suggests that their brain structure was rather different. Results imply that larger areas of the Neanderthal brain, compared to the modern human brain, were given over to vision and movement and this left less room for the higher level thinking required to form large social groups

Didn't study the Japanese and Chinese, did you?

Neanderthal and Nephilim
I see you are completely ignorant of a lot of things from the myriad of errors and assumptions in your post. It is scientifically proven Neanderthals bred with humans. Europeans have about 4% of their DNA from them the last article i read. Greater cranial capacity does not equal more intelligence. They were physically bigger so of course there heads were going to be a bit bigger. Also understand that their brains were geared towards vision and movement.
Neanderthal brains focused on vision and movement leaving less room for social networking -- ScienceDaily
