I wish you had asked one question at a time lol. I believe i can answer all your questions by using the bible. Where did all the races come from?, Why God allows wickedness?, Why he didnt step in to help you? If you really want to find answers to these questions, please feel free to email me as there is not enough room on here, and i would only get thumbs down for such a long answer.
As for your first question regarding the Bible itself, i hope you find this interesting...........If you have a copy of the Bible, you are far from alone. In whole or in part, the Bible has been published in more than 2,300 languages and thus is available to more than 90Â percent of the world’s population. On the average, more than a million Bibles are distributed each week! Billions of copies of either the whole Bible or part of it have been produced. Surely, there is no other book like the Bible.
Furthermore, the Bible “is inspired of God.” (2Â Timothy 3:16) In what way? The Bible itself answers: “Men spoke from God as they were borne along by holy spirit.” (2Â Peter 1:21) To illustrate: A businessman might have a secretary write a letter. That letter contains the businessman’s thoughts and instructions. Hence, it is really his letter, not the secretary’s. In a similar way, the Bible contains God’s message, not that of the men who wrote it down. Thus, the entire Bible truthfully is “the word of God.”—1Â Thessalonians 2:13.
The Bible was written over a 1,600-year period. Its writers lived at different times and came from many walks of life. Some were farmers, fishermen, and shepherds. Others were prophets, judges, and kings. The Gospel writer Luke was a doctor. Despite the varied backgrounds of its writers, the Bible is harmonious from beginning to end.

I believe in God because I know what He has done for me and my family and my life.
Yes the Bible was written years and years ago but it is all in harmony. Sure the deciples may have said one demoniac or two but that is how eye witness accounts are. The fact is that if you take the Bible as a whole it is in perfect harmony. Not only that but the KJV is almost word for word the same as those book that are present in the dead sea scrolls found in the last century sealed in a cave all those yeas and years ago. You can see the had of God in the inspired writings in the Bible. and the prophecis have all been exactly as they were prophesised.
When Lucifer (later called Satan) who is not red with horns and a tell but was once a beautiful head angel got jealous of the trinity and casued war in heaven (it's in the Bible) he accused God of being unfair and not giving people a choice. Satan likes to do things underhanded and sneaky but God will only come to you if you ask Him to-He never forces His way on anyone (no matter what the Catholic church or any other religion wants to claim, they are in essance a false religion if they claim that, or anything else not directly out of the Bible) But I digress- any way to prove to everyone -all the angels fallen and unfallen, other worlds (created by God perfect unfallen worlds- thats in the Bible too) that He is fair when He returns and ends evil and Satan for good. All will know that God is fair to end evil. HE has to let for a time Satan have his way. But everything good and bad is being written down and all will receive justice.
Opps I accedintly missed one why are there blacks and whites and brown people, We only know that Adam was rudy, other then that we don't know what color the perfect first couple was. We do know that they contained the genes for everything we have today. Genes of corse can be intensified and certain genitic aspects can be made stronger by continually adding those genes back in. Probably how we get brown and black. The gene for a darker color was contiually added back in and back in to certain groups of people until we have what we have.
I am sorry that you were attacked when you were 10 but the fact that you are not dead well God was watching over you. Things are allowed to happen to us for a reason. He works with us through those things that are allowed to happen to us. But remember that if you are a child of God nothing comes to you but comes through God first and God will take something bad that Satan tries to do to us (he hates God's children) and turn it into a blessing. I know that God does that personal experiance.
As for the last thing, well I hear the Holy Spirit speaking to me. And no I am not crazy. It is a still small voice just like the Bible says. And after all that is what faith is.

I believe in God because I met with him, in a personal way, in an awesome encounter that left no room for doubt. Starting from that point, I decided to look into the claims of Christianity, first by doing an alpha course, then by reading many books and listening to the experiences of other Christians. I began reading the Bible, praying, and kept a prayer diary to see how many got answered, and realised that many things that happened had to be re-defined in the light of my new knowledge. For example, the coincidences or good luck became God incidences or divine assisstance.
If you are really interested in knowing how come intelligent independent minded people can believe the Bible to be trustworthy, I can recommend a great book called,' why trust the bible' by a lady called amy orr-ewing, who went to Oxford University.
I can also recommend a book by Philip Yancey called, 'where is God when it hurts'.
You assume that something doesn't exist if we have never seen or heard it. I disagree. I have never seen or heard the wind, or love, yet my experience and the experience of many states that it exists.

It's called faith. That's not saying you can't have questons. I sure do! I think about things simular to your questions and other things as well. Like why can't my husband and I have kids when we want them so badly and yet bad people who dont want them can have them non stop. And you're right! The Bible has been changed over the years. It is what you believe and hold on to. Your faith is how you decypher the teachings. Thats why there a lot of different beliefs from some very devoted people. A very true saying is "Seeing isn't believing, believing is seeing." It's ok to realize there are things even the smartest people in the world can't answer. But it's ok to have questions to.

Holy men that had the Holy Spirit of God within them wrote the letters that you read, for the Holy Spirit of God is the Spirit of Truth and moved upon the Great kings, Priests and Prophets to write the facts of their relationships to God Almighty and it has been proven by time and miracles that the Word of God will never fail and those who try to alter it or change it are cursed.
After the flood of Noah, he had three sons and they when into different regions where they went and made up of different races and people.
Horrible things happen because Satan is the one who comes to kill, steal and to destroy all that is good and of God and while people mainly blame God, it is Satan who has power over the lives of people who don't belong to Jesus.
He was there as He was with me when I was pushed out of a window when I was 5 and landed on a sidewalk. And when I came to the Lord, He told me about it, He said, "Yes, I could have taken you then, but I have a purpose and a plan for your life and that is to tell others of my Love for them." and I have been doing this ever since..
I pray and believe because of faith and experience. I not only pray but I also listen and hear the words of my Lord and He guides me in all my ways and He has anointed me a king unto Him. and He will do the same for anyone who does the same. Have faith in HIM and believe.

I believe cause of the things that i have seen, though i have never seen God Himself.
If you take white person and put them in the sun they tan, think of it that way. it would take some time but it makes sense.
The people that believe in God should also believe in satan. Satan, or Devil, is here on earth to do bad things, but some things do happen to nice people. it doesn' t mean God had something to do with it, the bible does say though that it rains on the just and on the unjust.
God must have been next to you then if you NEARLY died.
Most pray and believe because they have faith in what they have not seen.

Why do some of great leaders aspire to satanic worship? Illuminati, high level Freemasonry (to name a couple) aspire to rituals from ancient babylon. Why do the Catholics, ordained in purple and scarlet, precious jewelry, pray to Mary (the biggest insult one could give to a man is to disrespect his mother(worshipping her as a god)). REVELATION 17.
Why are we moving towards the Verichip. Why do we promote all the immoral things in our media (when it is obvious that images sell big time) and then blame certain sectors of society for acting out these immoralities only for our freedoms to be taken from us in the name of security??????!!!!!
No your not being horrible about God your just asking the sort of questions anyone would ask. My advice..... don't believe in reigion or even the bible. You need to believe that Jesus the Christ is the son of the living God. Your faith will make you whole and your eyes and mind will be opened and your questions will be answered. The ten points in this case will go to God!!

Read the book The Case for Christ and it will explain that to you.
Blacks were first
God gave us free will... if someone wants to harm you or harm comes to you because of wrong choices by you or someone else... how is that God's fault?
God was right there with you... how do i know this... because you didn't die... therefor you were given a second chance for whatever reason.
Do you believe the earth is round or that we landed on the moon? Why... assuming the answer is yes. You haven't been on the moon to see it. How do you know it is real as opposed to Star Wars? You are putting your faith in the wrong things. You need to see them, look around, no one else can create life. How did it start... the Big Bang can be reproduced in a lab... read a book on the String Theory.
Tell me how I'm wrong
Anxiously awaiting your reply
God Bless

I am one of those people who died and came back. Yes I saw what I now believe to have been "God" and he spoke to me . Awesome.. you`d better believe it. So I believe in God, but I don`t believe in all the religious crap that the lesser educated will throw at you. All they want is a share of what you have however little it might be. Proof.. Show me a poor religious organisation.. I don`t think God interferes in what we do leaving it all to free will with the promise of judgement at a later date. So the bad do bad and hope to get away with it while the good go on trying to be good despite the wrongs inflicted on them by the bad. I hope you find this of some help.

These are all good questions..
1) It's a bit long drawn out...
2) Sit in the sun a while and see what happens.
3) horrible things happen to everyone.
4) you said 'nearly died'.
5) faith.
It really all depends on your point of view.
