Science has helped confirm the truth of God's Word, debunking many evolutionary beliefs along the way, such as "junk" DNA....transitional humans...."simple" cells, etc.
Junk DNA in the Bible? Really?*
Strawman....*

We can keep presenting evidence.... you can keep denying. Your approach to origins science is religious... as explained by Harvard prof Richard Lewontin"we (evolutionists)are forced by our a priori adherence to material causes to create an apparatus of investigation and a set of concepts that produce material explanations, no matter how counterintuitive, no matter how mystifying to the uninitiated. Moreover, that materialism is absolute, for we cannot allow a Divine Foot in the door.*[/QUOTE]

For example...just a few years ago the fossil 'Ida' was hailed as an important transitional link leading to humans. Now that science has debunked that, evolutionists say 'Ida' was interesting but not important.
That's rather how you can tell that science is working to peer review and falsify previous conclusions, and how science corrects its own interpretations if they are not totally accurate. If scientists were really stuck in a rut of evolutionary bias then no such corrections would ever happen and science would be in a mess.
Don't confuse the numerous shoddy conclusions (and frauds) in origins 'science', with real science. *You can't blame science for things like Haeckels faked embryos, the phoney peppered moth 'research',*Hesperopithecus, Piltdown,*Archaeoraptor*and much more.*
Fortunately science often corrects the evolutionists showing Biblical creationists were correct. (Evolutionist arguments. ..Junk DNA, useless organs, Neandertals, Sebida, *poorly designed eyes, psuedogenes, etc)*

I think some of us only have some Neanderthal DNA, but it's a gross overstatement to say we are descended from them, since clearly many of us are not.
Aside from you being wrong about that... you arw attempting to move the goalposts.
You said it would be "interesting" If I could show anything to support my statement that most non Africans are descendants of Neandertals. I gave you an article from 2011.
Here is another, although with a heavy evolutionary bias still admits...About 2 per cent of many people’s genomes today is made up of*Neanderthal DNA, a result of interbreeding between the two species that
can be seen in everyone except people from sub-Saharan Africa.*https://www.newscientist.com/article/dn26435-thoroughly-modern-humans-interbred-with-neanderthals/

So you say but since they(Neandertals) lived and died out long before your supposed creation event, it isn't exactly the Bible according to YECs anyway.
Evolutionists thought Neandertals were an evutionary dead end, never interbreeding with humans... They were wrong.
Evolutionists claimed Neandertals were incapable of articulate speech... They were wrong.
Evolutionists claimed Neandertals were dim witted.... They were wrong.
Evolutionists claimed Neandertals had no culture and didn't bury their dead.... They were wrong.
Evolutionists portrayed Neandertals as stooped over hairy beasts.... They were wrong.
Evolutionists said Neandertals would have been carnivores.... They were wrong.
Evolutionists said Neandertals we're a separate species from us... They were wrong.*
So.. *evolutionists have a proven track record of being consistently wrong. *So when you suggest Neandertals existed before Adam and Eve... its just one more item to add to the list of things they have been wrong on.*
