Out of all the religious debates....

Agriculture only begins to appear about 10,000 years ago. Before that, it was rather difficult to cultivate crops during the Ice Age...

Language probably pre-dates the emergence of Homo sapiens. Cave paintings and other examples of early art date back over 50,000 years, indicating the presence of culture.

I think it is fairly well established the other hominids implemented tools and had a semblence of culture.

Homo Erectus had some sort of language to communicate. They knew about death, but didnt feel grief. That began with Homo sapiens

Neanderthals probably experienced grief, there are neanderthal burial sites with evidence that the dead were buried with flowers and tools. Your former homeland of Yugoslavia has several rich neanderthal sites, particularly at Krapina and Vindija.

No comments about how it stands to reason that Neanderthals would be Croatian...

I agree that Erectus must've had language, they would've needed it to survive and to spread from Africa to Asia and Russia. Some colder climates that Erectus inhabited would have required them to be able to make clothing. A site at Dmanisi in Georgia dates to 1.7 million years ago.

yeah, Krapina is famous for their Neandarthal findings. Where have you heard that Neandarthal would be croatian? That ludicrous. The theory is that Neandarthal and modern human have a common ancestor, but we are not the same species. They have found those remains cause the territory of ex-Yugoslavia was one of the rare ones that were not fully covered with ice

Agnostic here.

I don't see how anyone could believe some of those crazy stories in the Bible.
