::There's also some mention of animal breeding in the story of Jacob. Laban tried to trick him, but God blessed Jacob's efforts. Also a "design" argument which opposes evolution. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] 09:16, 16 May 2007 (EDT)

:::The Bible does not mention race at all, at least not the color aspect from it. The Table of Nations in Genesis 10 describes where on earth people had settled at following the Flood. Simon the Cyrenian was instructed to carry the Cross; Phillip encountered an Ethiopian eunuch; Paul was a Jew from Tarsus. The Bible will state where people are from, and there will be a few cultural aspects thrown in, but it says nothing regarding race and color. The way I see it, there's only one race on earth: the human race. [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] 15:44, 19 May 2007 (EDT)
:::The passage tells us that Modern [[Homo sapiens|humans]] are the descendants of [[Noah]] and his family. The only humans left after the [[Great Flood]]. Since we are all descendants of the same family it is no surprise that we are very very similar. What [[Scientists]] believe merely confirms that.
