Where did other races come from?
If adam and eve created kids to reproduce and make the population of the human race, then how are there mexican,chinese,japanese, african american people if adam and ever were white? Not trying to be racist, I have nothing wrong with different races
Genesis10:1-32. The two records of genealogy surrounding the account of the Flood—chapters 5 and 10—connect the entire human race with the first man, Adam, through Noah’s three sons. Assyrians, Chaldeans, Hebrews, Syrians, and some Arabian tribes, are descendants of Shem. Ethiopians, Egyptians, Canaanites, and some African and Arabian tribes descended from Ham. Indo-Europeans are descendants of Japheth. All humans are related, and all are born equal before God. (Acts 17:26) This truth must affect how we view and treat others. The genetic makeup of the first man, Adam, was such that extensive variety could develop among his offspring—in such things as skin color, hair color and texture, body size and facial characteristics. This variety was increased by language and geographical differences. Concerning geographical isolation the Encyclopedia Americana explains: “When lands inhabited by two or more populations are separated by seas, mountain ranges, deserts, or other obstacles to travel, the members of these populations are perforce confined to their respective territories. . . . races will be separated by gene frequency gaps corresponding to the geographical boundaries. . . . this condition is approached in Africa, where the Sahara Desert forms a boundary between the European (white) and the African (Negro) races. The Sahara is very sparsely inhabited and difficult for man to traverse; it constitutes an isolating agent of long standing.” Thus genetics, language and geographical barriers help to explain why distinctive racial groups appear in all parts of the earth.
Yeah, im 13 and I know this! they tried to make a tower to get to heaven and God became angry and knocked the tower down and seperated them all to different parts of the world and gave them all different languages so they all wouldnt be able to rebuild the tower and they wouldnt be able to understand anything. Its not just a story from the bible. its real. and if you dont beleve in Jesus then yourr wrong. Our whole time line is based On Jesus’s life
wow, I wonder what it’s like, being ignorant enough to be able to tell people flatly that they’re wrong about a belief…
People adjust to their surroundings, you can’t expect a white person that goes into South America to stay white, no he’s going to get a tan. Your body adjusts to maintain Homeostasis in you. People explore, settle down, and make a society. There surroundings contribute to how they will look. Since we reproduce and populate areas, over time changes occur, and genes that are necessary for survival are kept and passed on to the next generation. Those few genes that aren’t needed are discarded. Take for instance a family moving into Puerto Rico, note this family is white, since they decide to stay there over time their children will be born with a natural tan to suit the surrounding.
Basically its all about meeting the needs of your body.
Then again why assume that Adam and Eve were white? The arguments I have heard that Adam and Eve were white were based on the argument that the name Adam comes from the Hebrew word meaning white man. Most of the people I met who believe this also think that blacks carry the mark of Cain. They believe that the mark that God gave Cain for killing Able was to turn his skin dark even though the Bible doesn’t mention what the mark of Cain was. They believe that all blacks are descendants of Cain.
According to the Bible all mankind except Noah’s immediate family were killed in the great flood. You could ask how all the different races came from Noah’s family since God killed all of the rest of Adam and Eve’s descendants.
This is one of the reasons why I reject the church and creationism. The whole Adam and Eve story suggests to me that all the other races are to be viewed as inferior, because they’re not creations of the christian white god. I see this as racism and I wont stand for it.
The different races come from adaptation to evolutionary factors like climate, terrain, or nutrient availability.
Doesn’t that have to do with the Tower of Babel or whatever?
no one said adam was white. and mexican is not a race…or any other one of those you named…not worth answering fully
Because Adam and Eve is a story in the Bible, not something that actually happened. Things in the Bible are for learning good morals, not for taking seriously. It’s called evolution. Animals change to fit their surroundings.
All of humanity is related.
I have clue but good question(:
