Why Did God Create Multicolored People? Why Not Just Create People Who Are All One Color?

That way, people would be more motivated to change who they are inside, rather than how they look on the outside (e.g. Michael Jackson might not be motivated to hit the bleotch and whiten his skin).

  1. If that were the case, people would fight over the size of a person’s nose or hair color.
    It is a human trait to defend one’s family, community and territory against outsiders. This extend’s to many other divisions. If major differences were not present, small ones would suffice.
    .

  2. God didn’t create multicolored people, he created the first man and woman who had the ability in their genes to have different color children. This was his intent, to populate the earth with all different skin colors. It is just like he did everything else, he loves diversity and skin color is just one of many.

  3. We don’t know what color Adam and Eve were. Most likely since the Garden was located in the Africa/Middle Eastern Region they were of a darker skin tone. But as people moved away to different climates, and genetics started affecting people, colors began to alter.
    And maybe He just loves variety. As to the motivation to change, that comes from Love of Him and of other people.

  4. Perhaps one god had created native Earthlings and they were all one color. Then a god somewhere else created natives to a colder Earth-like planet somewhere else in our universe (that being white people). Perhaps the white people infiltrated Earth long ago.
    Maybe that’s what happened. And maybe, it was just evolution, based on our environment on Earth, and what part of the earth we were located on. Over thousands upon thousands of years of course.
    But I’m just a monkey, so I can’t be too sure.

  5. What explains the development of the various racial characteristics?
    “All men living today belong to a single species, Homo sapiens, and are derived from a common stock. . . . Biological differences between human beings are due to differences in hereditary constitution and to the influence of the environment on this genetic potential. In most cases, those differences are due to the interaction of these two sets of factors. . . . Differences between individuals within a race or within a population are often greater than the average differences between races or populations.”—An international body of scientists convened by UNESCO, quoted in Statement on Race (New York, 1972, third ed.), Ashley Montagu, pp. 149, 150.
    “A race is simply one of the partially isolated gene pools into which the human species came to be divided during and following its early geographical spread. Roughly one race has developed on each of the five major continental areas of the earth. . . . Man did indeed diverge genetically during this phase of history and we can measure and study the results of this divergence in what remains today of the old geographical races. As we would expect, divergence appears to be correlated with the degree of isolation. . . . When race formation took place on the continents, with the bottlenecking of thousands of populations in isolated gene pools all over the world, the gene-frequency differences we now see were established. . . . The paradox which faces us is that each group of humans appears to be externally different yet underneath these differences there is fundamental similarity.” (Heredity and Human Life, New York, 1963, H. L. Carson, pp. 151, 154, 162, 163) (Thus, early in human history, when a group of people were isolated from others and married within the group, certain distinctive combinations of genetic traits were emphasized in their offspring.)

  6. But who are you, O man, to talk back to God?
    “Shall what is formed say to him who formed it,
    ‘Why did you make me like this?’ ”
    Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for noble purposes and some for common use?
    /true believer/

  7. All of God’s creation strive for infinite variety through infinite combinations. It is the reason we multiply through sex rather than by budding.
    God does not like the color of gray to become dominant, or any other color for that matter.

  8. Jesus loves the little children
    All the little children of the world
    Red and yellow, black and white
    They are precious in His sight
    Jesus loves the little children of the world!
    I thank you God for the great variety of people You have put on this planet. God, You are great! Thank you for the wonderful things you have done!

  9. People look different because of genetic mutations and where they live on the planet.
    Assuming God just let the above factors determine how people look, then God is just letting the flow of nature run its course.

  10. The climate that people live in decide their skin color. It is scientific. God was smart when he created different colors but I buy Evolution was smart.

  11. Well, if we keep banging each other we’ll all be one color eventually anyway.

  12. I don’t know about you, but I’m not multi-coloured. The aboriginal dude I work with is all “one colour”… The black guys I know are all one colour…as are the Asian folk…
    Good Luck!

  13. God LOVES variety and individuality. It’s less boring that way. Blessings!

  14. That would be boring! Everyone is different! Not sure why God didn’t but who knows and who cares!
    XOXOX

  15. Evolution.

  16. People are all one colour. Its just that we choose to see them as being different.

  17. boring and confusing

  18. black people can CHANGE! lol

  19. But isn’t skin color a choice?

  20. it would be boring if all ppl were the same color

  21. God made us different that He might make us one.

  22. I’m glad we are not all the same.
