[QUOTE="lucaspa, post: 529872, member: 4882"] The caution to do your own research applies here as well. Creationists did account for races before Darwin published [I]Origin[/I][B] [/B]and since. You might not agree with the accounts (I don't), but they do exist. In brief, the races are different "kinds" and were created as different "kinds". Isaac de la Peyere, Preadamitae, 1655, English edition, Men Before Adam, 1656. Peyere was a French theologian and Huguenot. The book claimed that Adam was not the first man and that the Bible is not the history of mankind, but only the history of the Jews. He was censured by the Pope but kept looking for support for his theory. Part of his rationale came from his interpretation of Paul's Epistle to the Romans. His pre-Adamite theory later became the basis for 19th century theories of polygenism and modern racism. You can see the thread yourself in the works below--other races not descended from Adam, just the white race. A discussion of this work can be found in Encycl. Judaica, 1972. So the idea of races did not originate with Darwin, but with a card-carrying Christian. And the concept of racism came over 200 years *before* Origin of the Species was written. Charles Carrol The Negro a Beast; or, In the Image of God, 1900 American Book and Bible House. "The Negro created a beast, but created with articulate speech, and hands, that he may be of service to his master -- the White man" "All scientific investigation of the subject proves the Negro to be an ape, and that he simply stands at the head of the ape family." (of course, he is wrong about the science, since evolution shows all the races to belong to the same species) Genesis prohibits mating with "beasts" [Negroes]: they were created a different "kind". God destroyed mankind in the worldwide Flood because man had corrupted his kind by amalgamation with Negro beasts. Negroes were taken on the Ark along with other animals. Has a chapter "The Theory of Evolution Exploded; Man was Created a Man, and Did Not Develop from an Ape" Says there are only 2 origin theories, and they are in "absolute conflict": biblical creation and atheistic evolution. W. Clyde Odeneal, Segregation: Sin or Sensible?, 1958, Destiny Publishers as a reprint of original article in Destiny magazine. Asserts that God created races after their own kind; nature attests to this "Divine Law" "Segregation is an Anglo-Saxon principle because more than all the other races combined, the Anglo-Saxon, Celtic and related races are predominantly the Bible-reading, Bible-disseminating peoples of the world." States that "miscegenation was the principle [sic] sin which brought on the great flood of antiquity." [/QUOTE]
