Christians: If Adam & Eve are the parents of all humans, where do blacks and chinese come from?

Question

Seriously, I don't see any resemblance between Mike Tyson and Bruce Lee

If they are from Adam & Eve - Doesn't it sound kinda like Evolution?

Answer 1

every christian who answers this has to also admit that it's just another little bit of evidence supporting the great evil EVOLUTION hahahha. if geography can turn your skin different shades, then what else can time and geography accomplish? maybe get a fish to exit the stagnant pond?

Answer 2

You assume that Adam and Eve were not Chinese or Black, don't you?

Perhaps you have seen their photo ID's...

Mike Tyson looks a lot more like Bruce Lee than either of them look like Lassie.

There was no Adam. There was no Eve.

Answer 3

Correct,The Bible States That Adam & Eve Were the first Humans on earth,but not the only ones. After Cain Killed His Brother Abel,He went to the land of Nod where he met his wife.
Geniesis chapter 4 Verse 16 ,17.For More Information " READ THE BIBLE " Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth ( Bible ).

Answer 4

I think Adam and Eve had all the different traits intended for mankind in them. At the tower of Babel, when mankind was separated because they began speaking different langauges, different people who spoke the same langauge moved to different geographic locations. Races formed when, do to natural selection, traits that were better for a specific location became more common among a certain people. Also, if one small group lives in a specific location of the earth, and those of that group keep marrying only people from that group, then eventually certain traits would become very specific to only certain races.

Answer 5

Far more important than where do other races come from is how could their offspring have been so viable? We know that life threatening birth defects occur in populations that only breed within their group. The whole advantage to sexual reproduction is to produce greater variance more effectively. If Adam was first created and Eve was created from him, they would share the same genetics. This would lead to fewer variances and within only a few generations the birth defects would have killed us off.

Answer 6

Your so silly, Sin entered the world thru adam and eve, Cain was the first murderer, the nephilim came along, and Noah and then the tower of babel were God made the first races, there were none before adam and eve. Of course some say that one of noah son's marriade a wife of cain's descendants and that was the first race, anyways. There is proof that all races come from one man and one women. www.creationscience.org.

Answer 7

Scientific research has proven that all woman, regardless of their race, can trace their ancestry to a single woman from area of Mesopotamia, who lived about 150,000 years ago. Mitochodrial DNA is only inherited from one's mother . Below is an except from wikipedia.org discussing the research. Please note that scientist are calling the common ancestor " Eve".

Using this information, we can assume that genetic information for all races was contained within the DNA of Adam & Eve. Perhaps as people multiplied, those who were slightly fairer ( or darker) prefered each other resulting in lighter & lighter ( or darker & darker ) skinned childrenand enhancing characteristics that we now consider specific to race.

Genetic genealogy
Main article: Genealogical DNA test
The fact that mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is maternally inherited enables matrilineal lines of individuals to be traced through genetic analysis.

Mitochondrial Eve (mt-mrca) is the name given by researchers to the woman who is the matrilineal most recent common ancestor for all living humans, from whom all mtDNA in living humans is derived. She is believed by some to have lived about 150,000 years ago in what is now Ethiopia, Kenya or Tanzania. The time she lived is calculated based on the molecular clock technique of correlating elapsed time with observed genetic drift.

Answer 8

It means that Adam and Eve had the genetic traits of all the people in the world. Their genes got diffused through time, and as their children paired up and the genetic differences became specialized.

Answer 9

Why don't you see any resemblance between them? They both have 2 eyes, one nose, one mouth, 2 hands etc.

What explains the development of the various racial characteristics?

“All men living today belong to a single species, Homo sapiens, and are derived from a common stock. . . . Biological differences between human beings are due to differences in hereditary constitution and to the influence of the environment on this genetic potential. In most cases, those differences are due to the interaction of these two sets of factors. . . . Differences between individuals within a race or within a population are often greater than the average differences between races or populations.”—An international body of scientists convened by UNESCO, quoted in Statement on Race (New York, 1972, third ed.), Ashley Montagu, pp. 149, 150.

“A race is simply one of the partially isolated gene pools into which the human species came to be divided during and following its early geographical spread. Roughly one race has developed on each of the five major continental areas of the earth. . . . Man did indeed diverge genetically during this phase of history and we can measure and study the results of this divergence in what remains today of the old geographical races. As we would expect, divergence appears to be correlated with the degree of isolation. . . . When race formation took place on the continents, with the bottlenecking of thousands of populations in isolated gene pools all over the world, the gene-frequency differences we now see were established. . . . The paradox which faces us is that each group of humans appears to be externally different yet underneath these differences there is fundamental similarity.” (Heredity and Human Life, New York, 1963, H. L. Carson, pp. 151, 154, 162, 163) (Thus, early in human history, when a group of people were isolated from others and married within the group, certain distinctive combinations of genetic traits were emphasized in their offspring.)

Answer 10

ok if you do not believe in adam and eve the question still arises of how blacks and chinese came from (even tho adam and eve probably weren't white). if you believe in evolution dont you understand that overtime such small differences in the end make huge differences
