Re: Why did we get different races under Christianity.
Adam and Eve were probably middle brown in color. Think islander.
The ol' AaBb argument. AaBb is capable of producing 16 combinations of color. AABB = that really dark supermodel who's name escapes me aabb = marilyn manson If Adam and Eve were AaBb they could produce children all over the skin color spectrum over time. As far as the other things that make the races seem distinct. I.E. big flat noses on black people, aisan eyes, etc... these are all things that can result due to geographic isolation. Many people believe the Tower of Babel had something to do with this.

[/ QUOTE ] I don't see what your beef is. Seems to me you're just being combative. The OP inquired how Christians explain the races. I merely said that Adam and Eve's DNA would have contained all the information for the variety we see today. The exact same concept would apply to the rest of the animal kingdom. Again, what exactly is your problem?

How did we get different races under human evolution? [/ QUOTE ] You're kidding, right? The most basic understanding of evolution explains this. If you don't know, you can't know what evolution is. Try this.

[/ QUOTE ] Are you telling me that it's impossible to hypothesize that light skinned people might have realized, "Hey, you know this sun thing sucks ass. We keep dying of skin disease and these nasty burns. Not to mention it's just SO FOOKING HOT ALL THE TIME, maybe we should try and seek a more temperate climate instead of living. You don't think that's even remotely possible? I only bring this up to point out that there is more than one way of looking at a particular circumstance. How do you explain the dark skinned inuit? Last I checked, Alaska wasn't exactly all that close to the equator.
