Our race: Past, present and future. (my opinion)

I wanna talk a little bit about the various races of human beings, I have read a lot of stuff regarding our true origins, I think it's a subject that deserves another look into, now that we are almost in the end of 2011 and 2012 approaches, and the end of this cycle according to the Mayan calender. Please note that I might change my mind about this at any time, we are always learning about everything and I would really would like to hear your thoughts about this subject.
Does the the white race really descend from aliens? Are we really native to this planet?
What about the other races?
Personally I think that many different ideologies might lead to a complete disaster our spiritual growth, or spiritual overdose.
I have my own spiritual ideology, Although I prefer not to reveal because I believe that there is a certain among of truth in all spiritual ideologies, it's everybody choice. Also Jesus Christ is always an option, so is (soul transmigration) if this concept is true, from one race to another.
The truth is the soul, I have no doubt about it, but this subject is complicated. Sorry I which I could explain it better, who is really humanity and we're we are going, I wanna hear your opinion.

Peace.

There is more than ample evidence that the different ethnic races of man have sprung out of environmental differences surrounding our various ancient tribes. All else is pure speculation on the part of people who do not wish to understand how simple this really is.

Well every other plant and animal on earth follows this concept so why not us too?

Because human beings are more complex than animals and plants imo...
We have spiritual awareness, and i'm not saying that other living creatures do not have them too.

hello silentassasin, i've previously enjoyed your posts and i'm glad you opened up this can of worms.
My feeling is that confusion reigns supreme in the debate of our origins. In archeology we see the more we find the less we know. Hominids walking with dinosaurs, the bronze age stretching back to previously un-thought of depths in time. They say there is a seed of truth in every myth and i think its also true that there is a seed at the core of this need to search for our origins. It is the search for our meaning lead by a desire to find ultimate purpose.
Perhaps it does us all good to set our minds against these impossible puzzles, perhaps in doing so we create an empathy with whats gone before us and with that a greater sense of where we are going.
My own thoughts, researches and intuition regarding spirituality so far have lead to just this, it's through us that the universe experiences itself. Everything else is just a metaphor or a lense if you like and they are all valid in their way. I will say that every god ever worshiped has one thing in common and that is us. It was us that named them, and us that described them and it was us that either maintained the gods or let them slip from their thrones. Some of our greatest scientific minds tells us maybe there's 26 or so dimensions/universes, all naming and describing their own gods and in doing so blessing themselves with their own meaning and purpose.

I'm a pre-school teacher so forgive this next analogy; if the universe was playdough we could hold and mold there would be only that amount of playdough, no more and no less yet with that finite amount of matter we can create infinite "things". I am convince i will never know if there is an entity playing with the playdough in this universe or if this universe is the entity.
One could argue that as we have our bodies which is made of the same stuff that the rest of the play dough universe is made perhaps we effect our play dough by our actions in life. when the matter/energy/playdough moves on in death perhaps it carries with it the memory of us much like playdough retains the heat of the hands using it and the discolourations after the creating is over.
i hope you managed to follow me down that rabbits warren.
keep up the good work.

um hello. was it something i said?
