I met some of those clear people once. I walked right into them becuase they had no color. Because they were clear the whole way through, they were invisible.

I don't know that He has every really given a concrete explanation to this.
Tradition says that black skin is the mark Cain and his descendants received and that mark was carried through the flood through Noah's son Ham who married a black woman.
Beyond that, it is very unclear how true all of that is and for what exact reasons God created different colors of people.
In the end, it doesn't really matter why. We are all His children no matter the race, religion, national origin, or language. We need to accept that being all children of the same God, that makes us all brothers and sisters and we need to start treating each other as such.

First off, everybody has a color. If I ever meat anyone in my life who doesn’t have any color (just a pitch black blob of some kind) I’ll let you know.
Second, God didn’t color people. We evolved this way so that we were properly fit to our different environments. hope this helps.

skin color was an advantage depending on where you lived. People have light color skin in areas that don't have a lot of sun, to help them absorb more sunlight. People in areas that have a lot of sun have darker skin, to protect them. What that has to do with God though is up for debate.

The silly answer would be because, I suppose He ran out of paint ! Seriously though, God never coloured people, it is evolutionary adaptation that made it to be so. Go and see it under a Human Paleontology heading on Internet !

Hi, perhaps I can answer you from my religious perspective of being a muslim.
From the Quran, God says:
"O Mankind, We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female and made you into nations and tribes, that you may know each other. Verily the most honored of you in the sight of God is he who is the most righteous of you" (Quran 49:13).
And from our Prophet Muhammad ( peace be upon him) was recorded this:
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Allah created Adam from a handful of dust taken from different lands, so the children of Adam have been created according to the composition of the land. Therefore from mankind we have white, red, black and yellow ones; we have good and evil, ease and sorrow, and what comes in between them."
Source:(Sahih al Bukhari).

People evolved different skin colors depending on their geographic location (you need some sunlight to manufacture vitamin D, but too much sunlight causes cancer).

Intially so that they would be better adapted to the climate and specifically the intensity of solar radiation they would be exposed to in the parts of the world where they lived.
