A lot of Christian scholars believe that when God came down at the tower of Babel to mix up the languages, it may have also been the DNA as well. There's different theories.

Well Noah isn't exactly depicted as being mixed race.

No, he wasn't, but if God has a hand in something, it doesn't really matter. And Noah was before the Tower of Babel.

Language has nothing with do with skin pigment.

I realize that. You apparently don't understand the theory. And you told me twice already.

Well, Noah had three children of his that were on the Ark along with their wives. Three children, just like the three ethnicities.

Noah's children were most likely the ancestors of black, white, and Asian people.

Good question though :)

Another theory is that when God marked Cain for killing Abel, the mark was that he made him black, but I don't like that theory.

Markings aren't the same as skin pigments.

The idea is that God marked him so that everyone would notice him and his crime. And since at that time, no one was black (according to the theory), it would have been quite noticeable.

Guess that explains why so many Christians are racist.

I was being civil and engaging in conversation and now you want to say something stupid like that. If you think Christians...true Christians...are racist, then you have a problem with bigotry.

There are alot of churches that preach racism.

Not Christian, non denominational. In fact, I would dare same none of them do. Not sure which "christian" church you've been to that preaches racism, but I would say you need to switch churches.

People are both good and bad, whether they believe in a god or not.

It's rather simple, really: Noah's family was mixed-race.

That literally makes no sense.

How so? A middle-tone couple can have BOTH white and black children (and in-between). And, it only takes one marriage to change a family's skin colour (such as one or two of the daughters-in-law - which would result in Noah having grandchildren and great-grandchildren of multiple tones of skin).

The Bible itself has literally TWO humans as the ancestors of the human race, and it's kinda hard to have different skin color from two people.

No, it is not.

Adam and Eve aren't described as being of two different skin colors.

Their skin colour is not described, period - they may have been the same colour, they may not have been - and remember that you don't need a mixed-race marriage to produce children of different skin colours: a husband and wife who are both "middle tone" can have children of very different skin colours (case in point: the case of different-coloured twins often touted by Creationists; the parents have the same skin colour, but are middle tone - with the result that one of the twins is quite white, while the other is quite black).

I don't see how this explains the whole Noah thing.

It was a similar situation. They weren't all white or all black. And at least some were probably middle tone. In short, perfect for continuing racial diversity.

How do you get black from middle tone?
[deleted]
0 ups, 5y
In the famous example of different-coloured twins often touted by Creationists, the parents were middle tone, but one of the twins was black.
