Who is William Lane Craig? William Lane Craig (born 1949) is an American analytic philosopher and Christian theologian. He holds faculty positions at Talbot School of Theology (Biola University), and Houston Baptist University. Craig has developed and defended the Kalam
cosmological argument for the existence of God. He also focused in his published work on a historical argument for the resurrection of Jesus. Craig established and runs the online apologetics ministry ReasonableFaith.org.
Who were Neanderthal? Neanderthals are an extinct group of archaic humans who inhabited Europe and Western and Central Asia. Neanderthal extinction occurred roughly 40,000 years ago with the immigration of modern humans (Cro-Magnons). Neanderthals were characterised as a
unique species of underdeveloped human, in particular by Marcellin Boule. By the mid-twentieth century, it was believed that human evolution progressed from an ape-like ancestor through a "Neanderthal phase" to modern humans. This gave way to the "Out of Africa" theory in the 1970s. With the sequencing of Neanderthal genetics first in 2010, it was discovered that Neanderthals interbred with modern humans.
