Answers with Ken Ham - Dr. Neanderthal?

from KHCB On Demand

This is Ken Ham, founder of the ministry behind the powerful Answers Vacation Bible School curriculum. Evolutionists have long portrayed Neanderthals as primitive human relatives, but they have to keep updating their story as Neanderthals just keep getting smarter. A DNA analysis of some Neanderthal teeth shows they used forms of penicillin and aspirin to treat disease. These teeth showed that a teen had eaten a kind of fungus that fights infection, and he’d chewed on poplar bark, which contains the active ingredient in aspirin. Neanderthals weren’t primitive. They knew enough about their world to use natural remedies to fight infections and pain. These humans were just that—humans, descendants of Adam and Eve, just like us.
