I mean the origins, such as if the Garden of Eden was in the Middle East, how did Native Americans get to North America, and that sort of thing. Where did all these people come from if we came from just two people?

I seen a Montel williams TV show where a white couple had a Black baby and a white baby and they were twin girls. They were 27 years old at the time of the tv show.
It may be that in the seed of man held all the races until people started to only mate with humans that looked like themselves

Gen 11:9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
God at the tower of Babel, after the flood, caused all peoples languages to be different from eachother, and scattered them over the whole earth.
It also explains why over 70 cultures have an ancient myth about a flood, only they didn't have the Holy Spirit as Moses did to write the exact account, but many are soo similar.
God Bless!!
:: edit :: 8 people got off the ark around 2350 BC, thats 4350 years ago, lets give it the benifit of the doubt and say its 4000 years ago. Lets say every generation is about 40 years, thats 100 generations, and the population grew by 1.25 every 40 years (or by 25%) which is a small number considering they started having many many children, some over two digits, but lets just calculate it anway. We get a number of about 40 Billion people. Anyway God Bless again!!!

I believe that when Adam and Eve had their children,( the bible speaks of Cain and Able, but also says there were other children as well) After being booted out of the Garden of Eden, They populated the Earth.
The History, and genealogy would take, and has taken a long time to establish.
For each "tribe" that roamed, they had to adapt to the area, and climate.
I accept the evolving argument as far as a chameleon would evolve to it's surroundings.
Just as we have those who came to America from , say, India, so those wondering nomads moved also.
The same after the flood.
WE are all descendants of Noah.

Well, its pretty involved. What some creation scientist believe is that there used to be a lor more variation in our genes. After Noahs Flood people were able to migrate to different places. During this time the ice age happened and there were many land bridges that are not covered in water. When the ice age ended many cultures and peoples were separated by water and because of a limited gene pool,and not as much gene variation, they ended up looking like eachother and not very differentfrom each other, but from other people they didnt have any contact with, very different. This of course is a very watered down version of one of creation science's explanations of differing cultures. You should research for yourself though.

That has more to do with Noah than with Adam and Eve. Also the tower of Babel is also a significant factor because that is where the nations were divided and dispersed throughout the world. There is certainly a lot that is left to speculation and we may not know all the answers to that question until eternity.

The Bible doesn't say Adam and Eve were the only people created, only that they were the first. Ask yourself logically, if Adam and Eve were the ONLY people created, where did the spouses for their children come from. I believe that many more people were created after Adam and Eve, which is where the various racial groups originate from. As creations of God, we are all equal in His eyes and equal among one another- or at least we ought to treat one another that way. This is what I believe and what I teach my children.

You ask in logic, okey, how about a man can walk on the moon? Is it silly now? The people now knows that. So the people can bread and walk even anywhere in this world.
In Islam, all human race came from Adam a.s and Eve.

If you remember Adam & Eve were thrown out of Eden, They did a lot of traveling Baby.

Actually, we all descend from Noah and his family members. There are several races, because genes can mutate within 1000 generations. Many genes were turned off, but people kept having mixed relationships and some of those genes were turned on. This happens because God loves diversity. It's all about genetics!
