Remember, Adam and Eve are the first people. Why come some ended black? Is it it because they were burned by the sun mutating their genes and therefore they were black?

Your question is either very naive or designed to upset people.
I agree with some of the other replies. Who/what says that Adam and Eve were white? No one knows for sure. God made everyone in His image. So, there is a little of God in all of us.
Also, there is scientific proof that man migrated around the globe. Depending upon where he settled- that set the environment for how people evolved and grew into their own respective heritages.
A little searching on Google or a visit to your local public library could tell you that.

Some simple deduction and a little knowledgeability would lead you to the conclusion that Adam and Eve (and Jesus) were not black or white. They were Hebrew (or Israeli). In the Old Testament, God's people were always Hebrew.
Black people (and white people and all the other people) came about after the tower of Babel fell and Gods people were scattered.

God gave us as people the ability to adjust to our climate and surroundings. Scientist refer to this as micro evolution. As people migrated from one place to another they physically adjusted over subsequent generations to more easily live in a new climate. My wife is from South America. Her skin is darker because her ancestors moved into a warmer climate, and their skin needed protection from the sun. This is not a mutation or an accident, but a built-in natural mechanism.
Also, who said Adam and Eve where white? Most likely they had a tan or olive skin. We don't know for sure. The Bible doesn't tell us. Apparently God didn't consider their skin color important. I hope this helps. God bless.

You need to read the bible. Man was made in God's image and it said that God's feet are the color of burnt bronze, hair white and wooley and eyes that are flamin red. Even scientist have found that life was first present in Africa...NOT Europe!!!! So if you do your homework and read then you will learn that God first made people of color. The real question is where did White people come from?

No they aren't darker because of sun mutating their genes....
Read your bible... there was a ruler (I don't remember his name) who decided he wanted to have a tower built that went up into heaven, so he had enraged all of the people of the land so that they were with him on building this tower, they were all doing this in anger so that they get to heaven and fight with God... God let them go on in building this tower... and when it was so high that it rose above the clouds, they went up into it and started shooting bows and arrows at the clouds, thinking they were going to hurt God... who in turn, destroyed the tower and demanded that all the living down below to scatter to the land of the four winds and speak different languages, and this is when we all became diverse in culture and lanquage and color.

In the beginning everyone was black. God was bored with the color so he caused a great vat of white paint to appear and commanded that everyone jump in and swim across. Well, when it got to the end of the line, there was only a little paint left in the bottom, just enough to color the bottoms of the feet and the palms of the hands...

I never knew Adam and Eve were white. Let me know where it said that and I'll retract my answer!

How do you know they were white? Just because the folks who painted all those paintings were? They weren't there. They didn't know, they were just guessing. For all we know, Adam and Eve were an interracial couple.

Who said they were white? That is just an image created by someone who was white.There are images of the Virgin Mary ,from white nations,like Italy,that are black.(ie.the Virgin of Castlemonte)
