If we all came from 1 people. Why are there so many differences? Why are some people so white and yet others so dark? Some will say it has to do with the sun and climate etc.. But some northern living cultures like Siberian Eskimos are just as dark as equator cultures like south American tribes.

Discuss.

don't eskimos put up w/massive amounts of sun radiating off of the snow and ice ?

sure but why just a few hundred miles south are people in mainland Russia so ghost white?

and if Eskimos deal with so much sun why are they not black like people in africa?

if we all came from 1 people in what is now africa why did we change colors?

First, we would all be incest then right? Also if the great flood happened, we would have double incest.


Now are we going to discuss this as the race's were present before or after shifting of the continents?

not sure that it is incest. it wasnt like all of the sudden you had 2 human brother and sister. it was more like evolving creatures that over millions of years formed into us.

lets discuss it from the start. so before shifting and then move into after.

If your talking the beginning of evolution, why did you say we all came from 1 person? If we are purely talking about evolution, the first "man" looks nothing like we do now...

i wanted to talk about why humans have different colors. you brought up incest. i said it wouldn't be incest because it was creatures ever evolving into what we are today. the very start of evolution was bacteria. i dont consider bacteria multiplying to be incest. so either way, your starting question is a flawed one. why ask me what i want to discuss if you want to take it in a different direction? if you want to answer questions with a question we can go in circles all day.

I'm just going off what you said. I'm asking questions to establish a base so we can go from there. Next time be clear in your questions instead of pulling from two different schools of thought :D

the base is pretty clear. color. why are we different color?

[Shibby]

Well we are talking about skin pigmentation and the type of melanin present in different races. You raised the question of the different skin color even though people aren't really that far apart. I can't really get to in deep about recessive and dominant genes, but it leads back to that. Even though races may be relatively close, the environment is not. What genetic characteristics were stimulated versus which ones lie dormant is about nature and nurture.
