    Do we look that different from one another? I think not!!

    A white male and a black male are the same as an asian male!

    A asian female and a white female is the same as a black female!!!

    The color of ones skin is truly skin deep, other than that a male by any other name is still a male and a female by any other name is still a female!!

    There is one difference, Praise God, males have male parts and females have female parts!!! Some do get this mixed up but even they have to admit the males have male parts and females have female parts!!!

    I do have to admit that another difference has to do with what and how we think about anything and everything!!!

    1. There's genetic variation within any race, including skin color, height, hair, etc.

    2. ....kinda hoping you know something about evolution by this point...it's not good to take literature so, well, literally. I think the Bible says something about the black race coming about when god decided to punish the descendants of Ham, which is one of the things whites a few hundred years ago used to use to justify their subjugation of blacks, not to mention that people say it was ok for Adam and Eve's kids to have kids together because "their genes were pure" or some bizarro thing like that. :/

    Personally, evolution seems to involve fewer mental gymnastics.

    Adam and Eve are figurative terms for the first men, but we did not originate from those two people. The book of Genesis was pre-historians ways of describing how the world was invented and is not to be taken seriously. But man DID originate in the area of the Middle East/North Africa, and proceeded to spread out where they adapted to withstand different temperatures and enviroments.

    And thats how you get modern man. Don't worry your not going to hell for not believeing in Adam and Eve.

    Inbreeding, Interbreeding, and all kinds of breeding all produce genetic variations. Even genetic variations within the same conception event look different from one another; look at fraternal twins. They may come from two different ova, or just one; however, different sperm from the same male are there, and how different they can appear!

    But most of us have still got two lungs, a heart, two kidneys, eight fingers, two thumbs, etc. I'm not saying the Adam and Eve thing is right but you won't get them with this.

    The story of Adam and Eve is a myth, so things did not happen that way.

    thats the biblical Doctrine.

    and in the LDS church its also part of the Pearl of great price.

    Abraham witnessed the beginning and the creation of man.

    but, if you go to the Urantia book, the story of adam and eve come to earth as Ambassadors.

    Each of the civilizations has got different views/discoveries and it is not possible to make others false because we too Have suspicion have about our own.

    Adam and Eve was just a metaphor.

    The diferences between human beings, even of the same nation, is due to a mix of evolution and genetics.

    We look different because we did not descend from adam and eve because that is a story in a book of fictitious stories, not a biography.
