  2. Even if Venema is wrong it still raises pretty difficult questions about Neanderthal DNA in the human Genome, especially since most ID and OE proponents deny that Neanderthals are human. Also, people in Melanasia have Denisovan DNA which looks even less human than Neanderthals (at least on the OE/ID model). Young Earth Creationism gets around this by identifying other hominids as human, but they walk right into other more troubling problems.

    1. I don't assume that Neanderthals are subhuman. How do they determine the presence of Denisovan DNA? Do they have tissue samples?

    2. Hey have found some bones which they pulled the DNA off of.
