[Arguing that race mixing is wrong, because only white people have souls]
The truth is, God created three races, and created them separately. The black and brown races were created in Genesis 1:26 on the 6th day of creation. Adam wasn't created until after the 7th day of rest in chapter 2, a Strong's concordance will straiten this up for you. The truth is, there are 7 differend Hebrew words in Scripture that get translated into man. In chapter one of Genesis, the word is "ish". In chapter two, it is "adam" (Strong's Hebrew word #119). Proof of this is the definition of "adam" as an adjective, "to have ruddy skin or to show blood in the face", only caucasians can do this completely. The reason for not mixing is simple, only Adam recieved the "breathe of life and living soul", the others didn't. Therefore a hybrid would be incomplete or corrupted from the original design.

If there is a God, I don't think he appreciates the sort of stupid things these folks proclaim in his name.
(Besides, has anyone ever used "adam" as an adjective? A Google search for define:adam turns up no such meaning.)
Well, I doubt that anyone can trace their roots all the way back to a first man and woman, without any other input. Therefore, by this morons concept of original design, we are all already "corrupted", and it probably wouldn't matter to continue on "corrupting".
Also, I found a dictionary.com entry that said adam meant red,earthy, but not specifically "to show blood in the face"
Ooh, or, since Adam and Eve were the ONLY humans when they were created, that would mean that all other races were derived from them, in which case, it would be impossible to create a "corrupted" person, because they are all cut from the same stock.

Actually I just read this jokers full post and he claims that God originally created three races. He says that God made the black and brown races on the sixth day, but he didn't create the cuacasian Adam until after he rested on the seventh day. This suppposedly explains why the brown and black races don't have souls.
Anyone this stupid should not be given writing implements. They might hurt themselves. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that particular creation myth comes from the Jews, so Adam was Semitic, not Caucasian. I'm sure this bigot has some stupid answer for that too (don't they always?), but since it's all a pile of primative superstitious crap, I really don't care. I suppose the Asiatic races were allegedly created by Eric Von Daniken's space aliens? Maybe the Aboriginal race was baked in a magic oven by elves in a hollow tree? Oh wait, that's cookies. Never mind.
Bah! Humbug!
Hey all you 'animals' be thankful, you don't have to spend eternity with this guy and his psychotic deity like us whities do.
Wait, I'm German, Japanese, Irish Spanish + Misc.
Thank God.
I've seen this a lot, actually, though usually not from anything so recent. My favorite one has to be from 1860, where someone argued that the snake in the Garden of Eden was actually a 'Negro gardener'.
Read your bible: Numbers Chapter 12:1 Moses' wife was an ETHIOPIAN.
"And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married: for he had married an Ethiopian woman."
And what happened? She (Miriam, Moses' sister) was smote with LEPROSY by GOD for complaining against her (the Ethiopian wife).
*bzzt* Thanks for playing "Who wants to use Scripture to justify racism?"
Not only Siphora, Moses's wife was from Ethiopia, also Makeda, the queen of Sheeba, WHO UNLIKE OTHER WIVE'S, EMBRACED THE FAITH OF THE ONE GOD.
Excuse me, man. Adam means, "man of mud", yes dear, and the word has roots with RED. He's not white and, believe me, he has NO GENETIC TRACES WITH A MORON LIKE YOU. (by the way, a lot of hybrids, including Siphora, Moses's wife and one Ethiopian scholar are very prominent in the Bible and the New Testament)
Holy Shit. apparently fundies CAN think of arguments that make sense. technically make sense. i still think that you are full of shit, and an abomination of a human being, but i'll be damned if i can think of anything technically wrong with that argument, in context.

interesting. So Cain ran away and married a wife who was black or brown.
And if we have black or brown people NOW then at least two of Noah’s family were in interracial marriages…
God didn’t do a great job keeping them separate, did he?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
