Responses
- The Bible, itself, refutes this claim, as it specifically states that all humans are the descendants of the three sons of Noah, and his wife.
- Evolutionary biology strongly suggests that all human ethnic groups are closely related, with each ethnic groups having extremely subtle (biologically speaking) differences.
- There is no scientific basis for claiming the existence of genetically distinct "races" of humans. There is more genetic variation within these so-called races than there is between them. This argument, if true, demonstrates that Genesis is racist, and therefore contradicts the arguments that Evolution is racist and Darwin himself was racist as reasons to disagree with Darwinism.
