Well, I don't believe in interracial dating AT ALL. Evem if I loved a dude who wasn't white or caucasian as you liberals out there want to call it, I would keep away from them. If God wanted interracial couples and a mixed world, he would have made Adam black, or chinese, or some other group, and Eve be a different race, ya know?
I mean, all of the tribes in the Bible always said, "Do not marry a girl that is not from our tribe, only marry our kind" which means whites with whites, blacks with blacks, chinese with chinese and every other race...

I believe in interracial dating. Didn't the bible also say love your neighbor? Now, you can't go anywhere with out seeing interracial dating.

You misinterpret. If the human population was made from two people then that means we are all the same... but anyway... I believe in interracial relationships. Its my opinion and my right. But think of things this way Adam was made from the earth which is brown and Eve was made from a rib which is white. Tribe, not race, tribes were based on religious beliefs, and also they were usually related...not race... maybe nationality, but not skin color. Your reasoning about Adam and Eve makes no sense, if they were of the same race where did all of these other races come from? But then again, two back people can have an albino child...

Inter-racial dating should be the choice of those involved. If two people truly care about each other, and they agree to be together, then that is a decision that they must live with. Personally, I am involved in a inter-racial relationship and we have talked about every aspect of an inter-racial relationship that we could think of. The problems that might be encountered, what others would think, how our families would react.....bottom line is this, if you care enough about each other, there are no obstacles that you can't overcome. And, while what you say about the staying within your tribe may have been true in biblical times, the world is constantly changing. Leave it up to the individuals involved.

Who says that Adam and Eve where white?

Well do know where you got this crap from. If you're going to quote the bible you better learn about Numbers Chapter 12. Moses wanted to marry a BLACK woman, but his sister didn't approve. God removed her from the tribe (As you call it) and inflected her with sores, until Moses prayed for her. (Read it for yourself)
If God didn't want interrcial couples to pro-create, why is it even possible? I'd be careful in trying to use the bible to justify your hate. You MAY find a lake of fire in your future. I know from a fact that today's churches FAIL in addressing this issue.

haha, some people can be so dumb. God doesn't care what color u are or what race u choose to marry. The only reason the Jews were forbidden to marry another "tribe" was b/c of the RELIGIOUS differences. Read the Bible more and join us in the 21st century.
Peace =)

The point of the Bible story of Adam and Eve is that all men are descended from the same ancestors and therefore all of the same 'tribe'.
Of course the ultimate in racial purity would be for you to marry your brother. It didn't work out so well for the European royalty when they tried it though.
As for me, I can only speak for my own experience. Interracial dating and marriage worked out just GREAT!

If God wanted to keep the races separate, he wouldn't of made you. As far as I can tell, you're not Jewish, thus, you are the result of interracial dating and marriages from generations ago. And, if you're American, there is no such thing as a "pure" American since pure Americans would be the Native Americans, which you probably are. So, you're a result of the thing you hate-enjoy!

If God only wanted one race he would have only made one race. God isn't judgemental like you. He loves everyone the same. Even intolerant people like you.
Sure I believe in interracial dating. Why not? If two people are happy why does it care what color their skin is? I'm half mexican, half caucasian. I look exotic. I get to have 2 cultures. Believe it or not you have more than one race mixed in you. Everyone does.

You can say if god wanted us to not walk everywhere we go he would have put wheels on our feet. Or if he wanted us to know the sex of our child before they were born he would have put a window on our belly..........that's retarded. He gave us brains to use and it also states in the bible thou shalt not judge. Think about that one and use it.
A person should be judged by his or her character, not by skin color. All of us should be careful not to show favoritism to some, nor be prejudiced or racial to others (James 2:1-10, see especially verses 1 and 9). A Christian man or woman's standard for selecting a mate should always be to find out if the person they are interested in is a Christian (2 Corinthians 6:14), someone who is born again by faith in Jesus Christ (John 3:3-5). Faith in Christ, not skin color, is the Biblical standard for choosing a spouse.
No one has actually "seen" Adam or Eve or Jesus for that matter. So don't be so stupid and niave.

a tribe????
LMAO!!! you are using the old testament as your refernce tool. So why don't yo still sacrific animails for the atonement of your sins???
First of all, the bible never mentioned anything about the Isrealites (as this is their record) being forbidden to marry outside of their tribes.
They were told to not marry gentiles cause they wanted to keep judaism and their population.... thats why almost all the tribes of old no longer exist! :) well, except the Jews of course (smart fellows)
