What was God's divine plan and purpose for this species? Did god judge them and on what basis? Will you be co-habitating in heaven with Homo Erectus who existed some 500,000 years ago or how about Homohabilis from over a million years ago? Which group would most define Adam and Eve? If they were the first Homesapians, then how do you explain all these other primitive species? With all due respect, please provide me with your most logical explanation as a theist?
If you are religious you are a neanderthal.
Due apologies to real neanderthals who look increasingly like they have levels of intellect considerably out of the realm of comprehension of creationist.

Since Neanderthals shouldn't technically be called "Men" I don't think it conflicts that God created man. Eve coming out of a rib is just a story, to show that the last species to evolve has arrived. "The coming of Man" if you will. There must have been hundreds if not thousands of Homo sapiens born after that to other Parents as well. Adam and Eve just symbolized that the age of man had arrived. Subsequently, the rest is all about how man took unfair advantage of their developed brains to dominate the Earth. Survival of the fittest
The last species to evolve? You know there are other species to have evolved since human beings, right? Humans are in no way the last species to have evolved.
Indeed, species of domesticated animal has to evolve later than homo sapiens since they only evolved because homo sapiens have already been evolved.
