So, for the sake of our discussion let's label them A, B and C.
I already told you that these terms were not invented until the late 18th century and that is A.D. NOT B.C. So Noah would not have been called any of those terms then nor would his sons because those are more modern terms. What Noah, his wife, his three sons and there three wives were called back then other than men and women we don't have a clue.
Robbie claims that Noah having three sons "explains" the existence of the three major races of man. If it is true that the Bible "explains" this, then ~ in order for you to believe the Bible on this issue ~ how do you think the A, B and C thing actually worked within Noah's family and in human history since the flood?

I don't know.

It comes as a surprise to most people to hear that there is abundant evidence that the entire human race came from two people just a few thousand years ago (Adam and Eve), that there was a serious population crash (bottleneck) in the recent past (at the time of the Flood), and that there was a single dispersal of people across the world after that (the Tower of Babel).1 It surprises them even more to learn that much of this evidence comes from evolutionary scientists. In fact, an abundant testimony to biblical history has been uncovered by modern geneticists. It is there for anyone to see, if they know where to look!

Originally posted by FMFLike I said before, I don't know, since I am not a geneticist and don't understand all the details. However, I can only lead you to the information. If you don't like to read long articles then there are some Youtube videos that covers this information from both the evolutionists point of view and the creationists point of view like this one:
Do you accept these explanations?

Originally posted by josephwIf this is so, you probably need to read more stuff that challenges your beliefs and stuff that poses straight forward questions that go right to the heart of what you personally hold to be the "truth".
FMF Your posts are as obtuse as anything I've ever read. You are a master obfuscator. Your posts show a total loss of subtlety of thought, and only an exaggerated need to dissimulate all meaning of truth.
