I assume you're talking about Creation as described by a non-Judeo-Christian religion, because that doesn't fit Biblical accounts _at all_. Nor does it fit scientific accounts, which says that homo sapiens was a distinct species by about 200,000 years ago and racial differences are relatively minor and recent. If anything, Native Americans were probably the last to be enough distinct to call them a different race. After all, we populated the New World rather late. So who's account says that? I'm kinda curious.

Last people CREATED????? Hmmmm.....dare I comment on such an insane statement !!!! If you are referring to evolution, than caucasian may have been the last adaptation in our current human evolution, based on the fact of humans travelling out of Africa, would first settle in the Middle East, Asia, then finally Europe (being the farthest from Africa).

I sincerely hope this was an attempt to speak about the long travel from Africa to Europe and the adaptation of humans to the European climate white skin (lack of direct sunlight), blue eyes (protection from light reflection from the snow) etc.

If you are attempting to say ANYTHING else, I ...oh...nevermind....I should know better by now...

I believe you mean...the fantasy that..."Caucasians were the last peoples to be created".

No serious person subscribes to the race fantasy now that we have mapped the human genome.

It must be such a disappointment for those who wish to accomplish something, anything, just be being born with certain physical characteristics. Life ain’t that easy, Pal. If you want to believe that you are special…go out and do something that benefits others; that will make you special.

lighter skin came about as a result of the climate in Europe. Because the climate is wetter, darker, and colder, the humans living in this area developed paler skin to better absorb nutrients from the sun. In today's world, where we monitor our nutrient intake closely and regulate it with nutrition and suppliments, this tends to not be an issue, explaining why all people in europe have not turned white and all people in Africa black.

Not according to the Bible. Of the three sons of Noah, Ham generated the darker races, Japhet the Oriental races, and Shem the whiter races. Therefore, all races appeared at the same time.

Gee, I thought "god" only "created" two people, and then "he" left it up to them to do a lot of "begetting." If you have new information that "god" created more people than just the two that most of us have heard about, perhaps you can share this revelation with us.

When you say created... do you mean by god?

...and if so which religion are you talking about?

If you're talking about evolution, then I don't believe there is any hard evidence to support the fact that either race came before another.

Hmmm. and you know this how? I kinda doubt that science can tell which color HUMAN was created first. I mean we are all one race...just different colors so what's the big deal and who really cares?

After all it should only matter and be more about our character and the type of person we are, not what color we are.

I think you mean to evolve. No one really knows what color Adam and Eve were if you are talking about creation.
On the the other hand evolution theory, there were people of of different color head shape and intelligence level.
Like animals our color , amount of hair and muscle density
depended on the region of origin.

Actually, I thought it was the first; after all, Noah was white!
And, believe it or not, blacks who migrated to cold climes are still black; whites who migrated to hot climes are still white. In other words, you are correct; each color was uniquely created.
