Why did God create the different races?

Who faked skulls, and who says the idea is debunked?

I can’t find anything suggesting that Darwin presented ancestral skulls at all, much less faked ones, so perhaps you are talking about a different (probably later) individual?
 
Piltdown Man was faked. And the man who presented the paper about it was Charles Dawson, not Darwin, who was dead by then.

Finally, the fact that this discovery was faked does not disprove the theory of evolution.

Also: it was in the newspapers a few years ago, that Darwin (or whatever guy used ancient skulls to show that apes evolved into humans, faked the skulls, he made some of them himself out of plastar of paris. So human beings did not come from apes. Suddenly at one stage in history humans were on the earth. Also: the apes are still apes and have not become humans, so that theory is out, animals remain animals, we have not had a movie version in reality of ‘Rise of the Apes’ in the last 3,000 years.

You are thinking of Charles Dawson, the amateur archeologist whose faked “missing link” was not conclusively found to be a hoax until about 40 years after he submitted it. This was in the news lately because of a paper submitted in 2016 that gave evidence that Dawson was the “lone forger,” rather than being in on a conspiracy.
No one in the scientific community has been saying there have been anything but modern humans around for the last 40,000 years, with the exception of a population on a very small island that is estimated to have gone extinct 12,000 years ago. This is a long, long time before there is even evidence for pastoralism–the keeping of domestic flocks rather than a reliance on hunting–let alone written language.
 
Because different parts of the world require different adaptations to best survive and thrive. If our world only had one biome, there would only be one race.
 
in the same way, in the racial view, that albino sub-Saharn Africans are still black people, all the races are still but human beings. Why are there 3 (or 4) races–why not more? Among the peoples native to the Americans, why not divide them into those of North America and those of South America? And so on.

We are all descended from one woman and from one man: this is the Biblical as well as the scientific view. To divide them as we have is our own decision and is arbitrarily chosen.
 
there is only one human race. A variety of shapes, sizes, and colors but all one race. So no reason for the Bible to comment about race.

Thanks for sharing this information because it proves that racial differences are the result of evolution. As someone else has written, Adam and Eve must have had the genetic ability to adapt and evolve over time

adaptation is not proof of evolution

Yes, adaptation or “micro-evolution” is not the same thing as “macro-evolution”, where one species evolves into another species. It seems people always lump the two together as if they’re the same thing.

Correct

Humanity can be divided into the major racial categories, various sub-groups (e.g. Nordic, Uralic, Slavic, Dravidian, Austronesian), and individual ethnicities. All of these have their uses, though race is the most biologically useful, and ethnicity the most sociologically useful.
 
There is ONE human race. The genetic differences between “peoples” are as little as 0.01%

What is the biblical explanation for the different races of the world?

Respectfully opinion only, I think Mother Nature herself could explain in teaching us far more about all different life forms, creations on earth, instead of the bible maybe?

Our Heavenly Father created Human Beings, mortals, not races, did he?
We are all Human Beings, we are all brothers and sisters, belonging to >>The One Human Family called >>>>The Human Race>> ❤️

Why did God have to create animals?

Why did God have to create an array of Beautiful Flowers in all different shapes, sizes, colors, different fragrances, rainbows, water falls, trees etc?

Why did God just instead create Human Beings only?

Why did God have to create Mother Earth>> with all her unique living life forms, array of colors etc upon her, instead of just looking like all those>> dark lifeless planets out there in the Universe?

Why is Mother Earth herself so different from all other planets that exist in this vast Universe?

Why? Why? Why do we not appreciate the magnificent beauty of Mother Earth and all Life forms that exist upon her? Instead being thankful, greatly blessed to be able to experience>> Love, Joy. Peace and in witnessing such magnificent beauty, awe and un-explain able wonder instead? 🤔

Peace:slightly_smiling_face:

I disagree. That is a Marxist construct that is based on utopian fantasy, not reality. Race divides naturally. Birds of feather stick together.
 
In Marx’s day, colour-based racism was ubiquitous and considered normal. In the wake of Hitler’s atrocities, the egalitarian dreamers of the world (aka cultural Marxists) turned all racism into some kind of moral crime.

It was not ubiquitous: it existed only among some people. Moreover, that was a time in which a Darwinian scientism kind of took over. Did you want to be cool and cutting edge? Talk about how we needed to figure how to “cull” humanity.

Seriously, this is really absurd. We set up these divisions and then get all bent out of shape about them. People are people. You think God has different places in Heaven according to race?
 
People have immoral ideas about how to deal with AIDS (for example). That doesn’t mean AIDS isn’t real or is a social construct.

I’m Ukrainian and believe there is only one race (the human race). There are however, different peoples. 🙂

You make that sound like a bad thing. 🤔
