Hmmn, applying your method makes your sentence interesting.
It's a great method. You really only need to take in a minimum of the words to get a grasp of things. As long as
Haha I'm only busting balls.
But seriously... Neanderthals were ugly... why would anyone want to breed with one?
Because they carried the gene for red hair?

Why couldn't they have given that as an example of sexy recently? Instead they give the airy and stupid looking celebrities. How sad.

I do actually bother to read the Young Earth Creationist "scientific literature" and they assume that HNS, along with Homo Erectus, Homo heidelbergensis, Homo floresiensis etc are different sub-species of HSS.
Anyway breeding between different (however closely related) species producing fertile offspring is more common than a lot of people realize. I've read a YEC book too, mindnumbingly stupid. Can you give me some examples of interbreeding, I'm blanking right now.

How about YEC? They are the result of interbreeding between Homo Ignoranmus with Australopithecus Idioticus.

Quote:Able to reproduce means morn than could reproduce only under rare and unusually circumstances even if placed together. If require enough behavioral compatibility to do so with some frequency when possible. Behavioral compatibility is part of reproductive compatibility.
And obviously they managed that, Chuck. That's the whole point of the recent genome studies about HNS which have come out. But I don't think Darwin would have cared about anything except the biological ability to reproduce.
Horses and donkeys can breed but the offspring are infertile, generally. Same is true of ligers.... (lions and tigers). Grizzly bear/polar bear hybrids have been found in Alaska...unfortunately the shitheads up there tend to shoot them so who knows if they are "fertile" of not.

If they didn't want to be shot: why do they taste so good?

They don't. They stuff them and mount them.
And, let's be honest here. Neither of us wants to delve too deeply into how the "mounting" is done.
