Yea your wrong buddy, People of Ancient Asia(China,Tibet,India etc.) and North and South America fit in with the natural order of earth

It is too much for lot of ppl to accept exisitence of different races,
Gene can be altered, so it is ok to put it true mutations of genes can through time make a separate race.

His skin had to be dark enough to not get sunburn.
Black people's skin gets sunburnt also. The extra melanin protects from harmful cancer causing radiation, not 'sunburn'.
Rome under Emperor Constitine converts to Christianity. "If we can't stamp out this heathen religion, we'll make like we're joining it! Then twist it and control it from within! Muahahaaa!
Constantine said that he was converted by, i beleive, a vision sent from god, and apparently the people in his court were somewhat put off by his piousness.
Rome went on to conquor most of Europe.
Rome didn't do this after christianity. By the time constantine was emperor, it had long since more or less 'conquered' the world (its world anyway).
"he changed the course of European civilization by becoming a Christian."
Later when the classical artists were commissioned to do their famous paintings of Jesus on the churches, halls, and castles, they had to make a picture pleasing to the ruler

Yeah? So having dark skin gives protection from skin cancer
Doesn't matter what reason Constitine said he adopted Christianity.
The fact is based on his (and Rome's) actions afterwards is they added tons of pagen practices to Christianity
And I never said Rome took over Europe after adopting Christianity

Race is hereditary, and is more than skin deep.

If the true picuture of Jesus was used in all books, paintings, right now. Then YES, YES, YES, many would STOP following that religion! Skin color does matter to them! Pat Buchanon, Storm Thurmond, Ross Perot, Al Gore, Tipper Gore, Kerry, Bush, everyone including most dark skinned people, would never worship a dark skinned saviour!

Gould exposed ''The Bell Curve'' as devoid of serious facts or new arguments. Gould said the book was ''a manifesto of conservative ideology, and its sorry and biased treatment of data records the primary purpose - advocacy above all. The text evokes the dreary and scary drumbeat of claims associated with conservative think tanks - reduction or elimination of welfare, ending of affirmative action in schools and workplaces, cessation of Head Start and other forms of preschool education, cutting of programs for slowest learners, and application of funds to the gifted.''
Gould said the book presented an ''apocalyptic vision of a society with a growing underclass permanently mired in the inevitable sloth of their low IQs. They will take over our city centers, keep having illegitimate babies (for many are too stupid to practice birth control), commit more crimes and ultimately require a kind of custodial state, more to keep them in check (and out of our high IQ neighborhoods).''

Race is not judged by skin color alone, but by bloodline. I remember 2 Negro twins were born, back in 96, one lacked pigment and his skin turned out a pale white. He was still classed as a negro, (or African American if your PC). Race is hereditary, and is more than skin deep.

And? I was merely pointing out that it probably didn't come about because of a sunburn benefit, but rather a skin cancer and melanin producing benefit.
Doesn't matter what reason Constitine said he adopted Christianity.
It does when his motivations are whats being questioned.
The fact is based on his (and Rome's) actions afterwards is they added tons of pagen practices to Christianity
What specifically did Constantine add that was paganistic?
And I never said Rome took over Europe after adopting Christianity
You previously said
previously

If I misunderstood than I apologize but I see nothing that indicates this isn't what you meant.
[quopte]then Europe changed the idea how Jehushua looked to fit with European ideas of beauty -> pale aristocratic skin

I have not been trying to make an argument for jesus being a white guy with or without a tan. I'd tend to think that he looked like most people in that part of the world have allways looked, and I suspect that that is roughly similar to what the aboriginal jews and palestinians look like.

FACT #1: The name Homo sapien was first used by the 18th Century Swedish botanist Carolus Linnaeus. The word "sapien" means "wise." The name was originally used to speak of the White man and synonymous with "europaeus." As a result, many later taxonomists and geneticists believed that Negroes and other races should be classified as different species. In fact, Darwin declared in The Descent of Man that the varieties of mankind are so distinct that similar differences found in any other animal would warrant their classification in different species, if not different genera. (39)
FACT #2: For his mammoth work, The Origin of Races, Professor Carleton Coon, President of the American Association of Physical Anthropologists and the premier geneticist of the world, assembled massive evidence from geography, anatomy, genetics, physiology, comparative dentition, linguistics, archeology, and fossil records from 300 bone-bearing sites to verify his theory of pre-sapien racianation." In other words, Homo erectus was divided by race even before evolution into Homo sapien stage. (12)
FACT #3: According to Dr. Coon, while the Caucasoid subspecies (the White race) was evolving in Europe, the Negro race was standing still on the evolutionary plane and is today no less than 200,000 years behind the European in skull and brain development. (9)
