Evolutionists have long portrayed Neanderthals as primitive human relatives. But they constantly have to update 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. He’d chewed on poplar bark, which contains the active ingredient in aspirin.

Neanderthals weren’t primitive. They knew which natural remedies to use to fight infections and pain. These humans were just that—humans, descendants of Adam and Eve, just like us.

This new find confirms the Bible.
