Answer 1

what religion are you?

well, in the christian religion there were also two people.  they went out and multiplied, spreading to all parts of the earth.  during various moments people were cursed cain was one and ham&#039;s descendants another, and a lot of people use this as a religious way to explain how races became.  however, the christian bible also speaks of the nephilim, a race of giants, so that may have something to do with it.

barring religion, it&#039;s a simple human evolution thing; things evolve to suit their environments, and this includes humans.

*edit: there&#039;s also the tower of babel story, where people began to speak different languages.

Answer 2

Kelli honey... Adam and Eve were not &quot;white people&quot;.

They were middle eastern. This meant that they had dark hair, and tan skin...

Who said they were white?

Answer 3

EVOLUTION! We mutated and if the mutation is an aid to reproduction or survival in our environment the mutated people spread in that environment! Of course different mutations are advantageous in different environments.

Answer 4

There are 3 races, mongoloid, caucasoid, and negr0id

There are many subraces though.

Answer 5

Let&#039;s try this, if &quot;your religion&quot; is christianity there are no documents of historical nature that claim Adam and Eve were white, and if we take into consideration the proposed site of the Garden of Eden (either the Middle East or Africa) it is highly unlikely they were.

You must remember that most of history was written by Anglo people and with that they tend to write or picture historical or Biblical people after there own image.

Let&#039;s look and some things we do know as fact; The oldest human bones were found in Ethopia by Dr. Richard Leaky in 1967, these bones date back 160,000 thus it is widely accepted by scientist that human life began in Africa.

If you are a Christian then for the whole of your life you have seen images of Jesus Christ as an Anglo with Blue eyes and in some cases blonde hair and very fair skin, but if we are to believe that the events of Biblical times occured in the Middle East (Israel) and Egypt (Egypt is part of Africa) then again it is highly unlikely this description in which we have grown up with is accurate.

Scientist believe as I have stated above that modern human being life began in Africa and from there spread throughout the rest of the world, Each population taken on new characterisics to adapt to their enviroment, thus you get different races and other human charateristics.

Answer 6

Religous people say that after Babel and spreading out races started, so if you&#039;re sticking with religion, that&#039;s your answer.

However, more likely we started out with dark skin, and this trait was lost for those races who lived in colder and less sunny climates, which is adaption. The races adapted according to the climates they were living in.

Answer 7

Race is depended on what part of the world you are on. If people came from a Hotter area then they were more dark like the africans, indians, mexicans, Native Americans. The people that were from colder places with less sun like russia, germany, and britain are more light because they don&#039;t need to be as protected from the sun. Now the asians......i can&#039;t really explain. they are a total different category. All i know is everyone started off white and became darker based on where they came....or went.

Answer 8

The sun and cultures make races. And mostly genetic dispositions. And really there is only one race but different cultures. So, its all in a person&#039;s mind.

Answer 9

To answer ur race question. Some people are colored darker because they live near the equater and get more sun. I guess people moved around in history.
