::Aren't all people descended from Adam?  Even from Noah?  Since that time there has been enough of a change in different people's genetic information to have Asians, Africans, American Indians, Caucasians, etc.  what makes it so unlikely that such changes could have occurred after some ancient inhabitants of Asia made there way to North America.  I'm not saying that it is true.  I have no personal knowledge and no way of forming an idea on the subject.  I am just pointing out that genetic differences do not prove the idea wrong.  --[[User:TimS|Tim]] <small>[[User talk:TimS|Talk]]</small><sup>Formerly CPAdmin1</sup> 13:31, 16 January 2009 (EST)

== "Creationist" explanation ==

Further to the section above, I was wondering what Andy thought about how the American Indians ''did'' get to America.  Then I saw RodWeathers' addition supposedly giving a "creationist" explanation.  The problem is that his source is not a creationist, although it quite possibly does give what Numbers considers to be the creationist explanation.  If that's the case, however, I'd like to know his source.

I doubt that creationists would have a major problem with the secular explanation, other than the timescale.
