Modern humans are NOT descended from anything that originated on this planet. They as the offspring of the unwanted middlemen of Golgafrincham .

yes!
Except Neanderthals are probably not our ancestors. A few anthropologists cling to the notion that Neanderthal's interbred in to the human populations in Northern Europe, but it is a minority viewpoint. Neanderthanls had culture, language and fire but they dissapeared 24,000 years ago. Humans all have a common African ancestor 30,000 years ago, both on the Female (mitochondiral DNA) side and the male side. (X chromosone dna.)
So our ancestors from Africa 30,000 years ago probably killed off the Neanderthal's or took advantage of some situation they couldn't.
