It's mostly by word that we are different Races. People would like to think we are even different spieces.
As for evoluation that makes us different,.. enviornment and the mixtures of the ancestors contribute. Also societies influence. If it was hot 4000 years ago to pick the darkest woman as a wife/mate and shun the others,.. then the commonly seen pigmentation are dark, even though the genes may still exsist for more pale. This was the piece Darwin wanted to add on to his evolution theory that people do not explain when they go " See,.. even he said he was wrong,.. it must have been a hoax". Darwin had been trying to make heads or tails of certain traits,.. he found it is Sex and the appeal to mates that was the last factor to evolution,.. [now for the common explaination] even though the Male Peacocks tail does not look like a good trait, females perfered that it be big, thick, and bushy,.. then further along people figured out this helps two ways... predators can pull out feathers while he escapes and he can still look good to the females and get their attention.

This is only a theory but I like it. When we were first classed as humans we all had the same colour skin. However, this is where it all changed.
White people swam to survive and stayed in the water for a reasonable amount of time cathing food etc, hence the reason most professional swimmers are white.
The black people stayed on the land out in the sun making there skin go darker as they were in the sun all the time. They ran to catch there food which made them evolve. This is the reason that most sprinters are black as they have evolved to have an extra piece of cartilidge in their knee.
I knwo this is only a theory and it may nto be true , but it is a good story anyway.

Humans evolved different characteristics to better suite and because of there environment. These unique characteristics are what we use to identify the different races. Such as more hair where it's cold, to help stay warm. Dark skin (blacks) where it's sunny and hot most of the time, white skin (whites) where it's cold and the sun shines less often and less intensely i.e. because of the environment. This is just one important factor. I'm sure there r other reasons as well, like their diet, their lifestyle, etc.

Humans,as scientists would have it,originates in Africa.From there,Homo Sapiens decided to satiate their unsatiable curiosity for the truth out there,proving that there was a market for X-Files even then.So,they moved up through the Middle East.From there,they split into two groups;one went to the East,one went to the West(back then there was a strip of land from around Italy to the US)The people in the East settled down in Asia,before again walking to Antartica and taking those longboats to Polynesia.In America,they went down south to South America and colonised it.From there,evolution took place,and the rest is history.

All of the different races of people are the results of all of the different races of ET'S that have visited Earth, and that also helped to create and populate Earth. Angels and nature spirits also helped to create some of the different types of life-forms that exist on Earth. Least, but not least, different gods helped to create Earth and some of the different life-forms that exist on Earth. All of the different gods created different types of life-forms on Earth according to their individual choices and preferences, and some gods were in competition with each other to see who could create the prettiest or the best type of life-form. For example, if one god created a certain type of flower, then another god would create another flower that he/she thought was prettier than the flower of the other god. Furthermore, if the animal of one god was eaten by an animal that another god had created, then that god would create another animal that could eat the animal that had eaten its first animal that it had created. Yes, there is more than one major creator god in existence. However, none of the major creator gods know who or what created them. If another god created them, then who created that god, but that god also doesn't know who or what created him/her/it. If there is a theory that only one god somehow came into existence, then I believe in the theory that many gods somehow came into existence at the same time, and also at different times.

The different environments and weathers of different parts of the Earth, the different ways of life and cultures and even the different kinds of food people eat in different places.

I think we have just adapted to the environment which is where different skin colours and hair textures come from.

the planet earth came into being because of this too within our solar system.......on this planet we call earth.....thegeological developed through millions of years...to the continents that supported land and sea life.......trees plants animals.........eventually a form called human...or homo sapien.........and this human ist.......if you want to call it a race is like no other..............look ..search...ponder about these things....the world or race of rocks...RA>from the egyptian idea or the sun......CE...from its creative ability..to be and form...to put together to rocks are a part of of what we study as minerals in protien...as metals as fluids,,,,,,,chemestry is a study of the great mystery of chi...the che-mystery............in the vegetable world.....the vegatablisa the v.first...breathers...the plants the factories the first manufacturers...the first miracles that take sunlight and produce carbohydrates and oils...building blocks for their worlds and other creation.............BUT they do not know it....they do not know what they do......they do not have a brain developed like a humane.....they grow /thrive produce seeds but they do not have the ability to know what they are and how they live....but they do live...yes and support other life forms....a place for birds to nest..for bee's for other things you can and i can become aware of.........because the next race or world is a different type and has a brain that evolves...to support the animals world ..through five physical sences...all the sences are toprotect the developing expression in the animals world.....so they are animated...by a search for food/nutrients..a nest/ a den.....to protect or defend their territories ..from other species of / or even their own.......they depend on weather too and ability to act or react to it..and at mating time cannot go against their internal developing system that says its time for a mate...the struggles that occur within that what psychology calls a mating or sex creative urge usually produce offspring that can adapt to a changing environment.........the simple ideas that animals live by/though we see many different forms, and ways they participate...is that they do not have the ability to do things contrary to their own nature.........that includes the herding or gregarious nature....geese fly south....but may winter in a new place if food and shelter are there............the animal is animated......but does not know what animates him...the brain is not designed as in the human/though it is a remarkable system for the animal.......it is all the animal needs...to survive and live....and it is our kin...like the plant world...a part of a great effort to bring about life on this planet we call earth....a HO-me...humanity...a living part that is related to all living things....yet a race called humane..because the five sences are no longer limited to survival....the arms and legs are no longer limited to pursauit ......hands can make pottry...draw pictures....weave a dress....make a breakfast...write a letter...shine shoes...even hold hands......what else...you my friend can find more uses now that i can..because there is two of us gatherd to exchange ideas and only humans have a brain to do this.......the stimulation comes from a word we call interest...interest is like finding food it nutrients our insides...replenishes or fellow humans...............and it nurtures our ability to speak and communicate....which is a talent no other race has...you can sing more than a bird....and yr abilkity to talk..isever expandible...............it is a beautiful question you ask.............it needs a most beautiful answer..................in history...man has evendone autrocious things because he did not understand what he is or was....man has not understood his brain and the wonderous possibilities that inter connect there...some parts are designed to do jobs like regulate skin and organ function...and are not to be interferred with yet we do or have and should learn to leave these things alone.........Example...do you or i know how to make skin?...can we eat a carrot or cellry and deside we want to make tissue....i cant....but some process in us does ; it does it well ' and to and for us....we have another ability that is a branch of interest.....it's called worship.......in its simplest form its a working in the brain that sets interest in motion....and was translated through history as what-ever we become attentive to.........so you can see why painters poets orators..tried to give something in their sculpters .to their canvasses...to their cave walls.......because others of the humane/brained/homo sapien family .....could have interest develope better states and qualities in their fellow man..................some times these were only symbols..............the letters you reads here are only symbols....our alphabit is symbols......but our brains can integrate these as we exchange ideas and worship....or ?
i write the word D O G...three symbols that are seperate in their sounds shapes forms....a person who does not read english may not even notice these..though he would not be ignorant or stupid of them......a dog wouldnot know them......ah but did you read those symbols and think or picture a puppy?...black, terrior,spaniel,male female?........from that set of symbls.....we exchange interests and differences and our brains interlink through the internet...because of this...interest...and interest can be so enthrawling that it leads us...yes beyond our brains......................to me we are one race ...man kind.....evolving and growing in creation...different...yes perhaps divine if those symbols are to be put together that way...thankyou for being human
