Who or what started racism why couldnt our Creator make us all compatible?

He did in the beginning (Adam and Eve).  By our own stupidity, jealousness, vanity and pride (and not to mention curiousity) did we end up hiding ourselves from Him.  Cain and Able is another example.

"this question is not about to know the true color of adam and eve actually but to know if humans starts with adam and eve or maybe from ape. All i want to know is how did it happen that there are lots of races."\n\nThe initial question is the question of creationism vs. evolution.  That will continue to be debated until Jesus comes again and we can all get the definitive answer.\n\nAs to why there are so many races, there are many different geographical areas in the world and our physical features have adapted over many generations to allow us to survive in those areas.  \n\nFrom a spiritual point of view:  God wants us to learn is tolerance, patience, understanding and acceptance.  What better way for His children to learn to be more godly (according to His Word - the Bible) than to make us physically different.   Accepting others who look different has been a learning and growing experience for me and I have had some of the most loving and caring friendships with those who "look" different than I.\n\nMy pastor said it best:  God only made two models of people:  male and female.  Then He created the available options for those models.  But underneath it all, we are all God's children, loved equally by God.

Act 10: 34 - 35 - ...."God is not partial for any man from any nation who WORKS righteousness is acceptable to Him"...\n\nIf that's the case, humans are certainly not imitating God or his Son.\n\nWhy does anyone face racism? Duh...it's just not going to go away when you have countries such as America constantly playing their sickening tone.\n\nPersonally, I have given up on all whites...as they are always topping the list of hate and bigotry and they use their positions to hurt people of color. I now use my position to hurt them and they don't like it, but they get angry and try to "pack up" with other bigots like them.\n\nRacism...blah..blah..blah...it... old and tired but the real sickening ones who constantly perpetuate it won't stop until Armageddon destroys them. That time is not far off. Until that time, I just exist with 'em but I don't try to be too social or friendly because they are a cursed race (leoprosy) and they cannot be trusted...like a diseased frog or something. \n\nBe careful and don't get too close because if you were a cursed race also, I guess you'd have a lot of evil and hate within you and you wouldn't behave yourself fairly. Whites think they run everything and thing is, they do not and this type of "we can" and you cannot illness keeps them in hot water constantly so they lie when they are confronted with their evil ways.\n\nMany times they don't even realize how evil they are but then when they do, they get mad and defensive and it turns into "I just don't care I'm white and I can do this" type sickness. That's when they really need to be eliminated by God, but God has his own time.\n\nAs far as interacting with them, I don't really care to...I don't associate with 'em much as they don't have goodness in their hearts and they always lie and cause major problems everywhere.\n\nThe world hates America mostly because of them and they group us all in the same bag. If they only knew how much many of us hate them for the horrific things they do on a daily basis and again they use their jobs to hurt people and laugh and have beers over their evil ways.\n\nWhat does God have to say about that? Well take a look:\n\nPsalms 37: 12 - The wicked one is plotting against the righteous one,\nAnd at him he is grinding his teeth.\n\n13 Jehovah himself will laugh at him,\nFor he certainly sees that his day will come.\n\nPsalms 37: 8 - Let anger alone and leave rage;\nDo not show yourself heated up only to do evil.\n\n 9 For evildoers themselves will be cut off,\nBut those hoping in Jehovah are the ones that will possess the earth.\n\nNice ending for the good people soon, so just exist and don't get too close to them...they will backstab you every time.

Racism isn't mutually exclusive. Often its other issues that motivate criticism and violence. How many times have you seen the victim of hate or violence by one man take it out on an entire race of human beings. This happens ever day.

Come on....... I consider every one to be equalls.  You are the one dogging on other races.  That is one thing that gets to me.  How come certain races always imply their is racism?  And want special privileges.  All people have the right to work and to earn respect from others.  Don't expect handouts.    We all started from one race... then the fall of man.  We all need to take care of ourselves.

I rather like the fall from the sky theory you presented.  And, interestingly enough, some Indigenous American folklore says we DID indeed come from the sky.\n\nAs far as the Bible goes, it dissuades one from the monkey/black hypocrisy.  No where does it say man of any color came from another animal.  So, those wonderfully hateful racist who both claim Christianity and that black man came from an ape are not only sadly misinformed, they are defiling their own religion. \n\nIn the Bible it says Adam was created from dust (Genesis 2:7), so how about if it was a variety of colors of earth? [see link 2] (Okay, I get into a lot of trouble with theologians when I say that, but I'm not kidding! LOL)\n\nActually, Biblically, it's explained in Genesis 10.  God divided the earth amongst Noah's sons.  They were different colors because either Adam had all colors of soil in his make-up or ----- let us assume at this time it was from environmental causes until some greater Biblical scholar corrects me with the proper verses to indicate written proof.

People that think like you are the reason racism still exists.  The next step should be forgiveness.  Stop blaming the white people of today for the things our ancestors did.\n\nI don't mean to be rude, but get over it.\n\n---Also my husband is black, I am white and we have a beautiful son.  We are all human, just love each other.\n\n---Sometimes I wish people were not so close minded.  History is important, but people of today should not be blamed for history or have to own up to our ancestors mistakes.

If by the creator you're referring to God, then I'd say he doesn't like/dislike any group of people any more than any other. He loves them all equally. You wouldn't see different races if you could view the world through God's eyes.\n\nRacism is a fact because, unfortunately, it's caused by Satan.

There was no original race.\nThen there was Abraham and he was the FIRST jew.

To directly answer your question, no, Jews did not start racism against blacks during slavery.  Think about the population of Jewish colonists when slavery started...not a lot.  Affluent Brits and American colonists in the very Puritan new world were racist.  If anything, I personally believe that Jews and Blacks have a lot in common because they both have been persecuted so extremely based on uncontrollable traits.  \n\nThe problem with "this guy" is that from an anthropological perspective, I don't believe he's defining race properly.  In an anthropological sense, "race" is culturally constructed---it doesn't exist in the reality of science; HOWEVER, in the reality of the world, culture, etc, it does.  Anthropologist prefer the term "ethnicity" to describe different cultures.  ("culture" is a group of people that hold a common value system towards religion, society, food, traditions.)\n\nYou can trace racism to the clans that sold captured members of other clans in Africa.  "Race" wise, both were black, ethnically, they held different value systems.  Did racism start there?  was it black on black?  No.  The Germanic tribes had their version, the Aztecs in southern North America had theirs, the Navajo vs name your tribe Great Plains North America, the Chinese & Japanese, the Indians and Pakistans.  All of these geographically mentioned areas have their racism.  Racism towards blacks started by ignorance with anyone that came into contact with a different ethnicity (whether they themselves were "black" or not).  \n\nSo, your teacher didn't go back far enough --- say, the beginning of time and took a very ethnocentric opinion on it.  Perhaps he has something against Jews?  Or Christians?  or the Talmud?  Either which way, his opinion isn't broad enough or well read enough to give you sound information that won't make you look like a fool at a dinner party in the future.

I totally agree. God isn't worried about what race a person is, but he does care what people believe. There are many places in the bible where God warns people not to marry a Canainite woman or a person from whatever country. But the only reason for this was that the specific people God was talking about worshiped other Gods. God did say not to be unequally yoked, meaning believers should not be married with non-believers. But it has nothing to do with race.

Wow, where to start.  I think the only thing you got right is how destructive we (whites) are.  \nI don't agree that we are the most intelligent or the most beautiful race.  Probably the most pompous though. We certainly spread multitudes of diseases that killed many civilizations while we were spreading our religion.  Usually this was accompanied by a slaughter or two.  The white man's history is stained with the blood of uncounted cultures that we called savage and pagan. But we spread the gospel in the process to whatever was left.\nAs for slavery, we didn't invent it, we just made it famous.  It was going on as far back in history as we can see.  Slaves built the pyramids and the great wall.  Native tribes often captured and enslaved rivals.\nThe best God's believers?  I'm not sure what you mean but God doesn't see you as a certain race or color.  At least we can hope.

Why does anybody want anybody? Stop being racist!

Here's something I've always wondered about:\n\nGiven we're all God's creation, then He necessarily created all people - with different races, sexual orientations, etc.\n\nThen who are WE to judge any of God's creation?  For those who hate or discriminate people of different races or sexual orientation, isn't that a type of blasphemy?  Wouldn’t you teach or discipline your kids if they’re fighting/hating each other?  \n\nFor those who justifies discrimination on religious grounds, I wonder what will God say to them when the judgment comes.  After all, I cannot believe ANY religion would teach hate and intolerance. \n\nAnd for those who believe sexual orientation is a choice therefore a sin, ask yourself if you can simply “choose” to like the other sex?  I cannot imagine if people tell me that it’s wrong for me to like girls and I must like guys.  I seriously doubt if anyone can just “choose” like that.  \n\nAnd one last thing – I heard from some people that you’d go to hell if do not believe God/Jesus, regardless of how good of a person you are, or how many good deeds you’ve done.  Conversely, you can be a mass murderer/rapist but can still go to heaven if you repent the moment before you die.  How fair is that?  I have ancestors who’s never even heard of Christianity in their times, are they all doomed in hell for the eternity?  Without any chance of redeeming themselves?

I thought so too for a while because it seemed to me that finally we were over all of that racist stuff, but we both thought wrong there just as many racist now then there were a long time ago....Understand we live in a society that is mixed both ethnically and religioulsly and most of these cultures already had problems with each other long ago ...Not excluding our own America...We should have learned plenty of lesson over history about racism but that shows you that the old blind eye is closed again and now some of us are starting all over from the begining to rebuild a relationship of peace and understanding....For this to happen so late down in time it is truly a mess...As long as you have those in this world that preach and teach that junk it will never be over yet along the ones that has there own opinion of things...So as we live in the really messed up world all we really can do is deal with what it is.
