Interesting thought...as perhaps the way that light skin and eyes became a common characteristic in humans? No way of knowing that but I suppose it is possible.
It is also possible that the Noah's family was just genetically diverse (perhaps by design)...perhaps the first humans were genetically complex enough to account for all the variations in hair, skin and eyes that we now attribute to different races. Over time, something like replicative fading combined with the actions of people (and God) caused people to lose some of their individual genetic complexity. God now needed eight carefully chosen people to represent the diversity he only need two to accomplish at the beginning. Since that time, continued selective breeding has further reduced our complexity...sometimes to the point that we suffer some of the same genetic weaknesses we see in some purebred dogs (and lots of other species we selectively breed).
I wonder how many people God would need to save now if he wanted to start over and still preserve the diversity of his original creation?
