Why Is This Fact Not Taught In Churches?

[Asclepias]

Was doing some research on the bible and was reading Genesis 2:11-13. The first 2 nations that are mentioned in the bible are Black nations. The first nation listed is Havilah. Havilah is the son of Kush and it was located in East Africa. The second nation is of course Kush. Kush is the son of Ham and it was also located in east Africa. It is known today as Ethiopia.

Bible Gateway passage: Genesis 2:11-13 - English Standard Version

11 The name of the first is the Pishon. It is the one that flowed around the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold. 12 And the gold of that land is good; bdellium and onyx stone are there. 13 The name of the second river is the Gihon. It is the one that flowed around the whole land of Cush.

It's certainly taught in Synagogues.

So if the OT shows that the Garden of Eden was in East Africa why do some white people dispute that Adam and Eve were Black?

I don't know. Possibly because every illustrated bible that xtians use shows depicts them as Swedes.

But, Anthropology is pretty unambiguous that early man, at least those of whom we know, originated in Africa and the earliest civilizations we know, are not far from there.

Congrats---all together, this is probably the dumbest thread I have read so far on US Message board, and that's really saying something. From horse man chiming in with the stupid picture, and obsessing about what race Adam and Eve are, etc.

Do you folks ever notice that YOU obsess over all this and evangelical Christians do not? We accept it and move on. Jesus Christ was not blond and blue eyed and we understand this. The Garden of Eden was not in Europe and we accept this and do not CARE.

YOU are obsessed and project your obsession with race on US.

It used to be mildly amusing but lately, is getting sorta dangerous. So knock it off.

Dunno 'bout Black but Catholicism is UNIVERSAL. I have Black, White, Yellow, Brown, Wrangers, purple and green Brothers and Sisters in Christ. Why is that news to you? Oh yeah; and Protestant Bros and Sisters too.

Not sure about Ottomans though.....hate the bastards!!!

"Why Is This Fact Not Taught In Churches?"

You mean, like the billions of trillions of other facts, also not taught in churches? Is there a punch line to be found in any of this?

Who cares? What colour skin have chimps got?

These early humans probably had pale skin, much like humans' closest living relative, the chimpanzee, which is white under its fur. Around 1.2 million to 1.8 million years ago, early Homo sapiens evolved darkskin.Feb 25, 2014

Odd Cause of Humans' Dark Skin Proposed

New gene variants reveal the evolution of human skin color

By Ann GibbonsOct. 12, 2017 , 2:00 PM

Most people associate Africans with dark skin. But different groups of people in Africa have almost every skin color on the planet, from deepest black in the Dinka of South Sudan to beige in the San of South Africa. Now, researchers have discovered a handful of new gene variants responsible for this palette of tones.

The study, published online this week in Science, traces the evolution of these genes and how they traveled around the world. While the dark skin of some Pacific Islanders can be traced to Africa, gene variants from Eurasia also seem to have made their way back to Africa. And surprisingly, some of the mutations responsible for lighter skin in Europeans turn out to have an ancient African origin.

“This is really a landmark study of skin color diversity,” says geneticist Greg Barsh of the HudsonAlpha Institute for Biotechnology in Huntsville, Alabama.

Looks like your ASS-sumptions need some theory-adjustment.

All Africans are Black seems a rather RACIST slur!!

Unfortunately for you I have never once posted anything seeking your approval. I dont need your congrats nor do I care what evangelical christians do or not do. For someone that claims this is a dumb thread you belie your words by posting this emotionally transparent tirade. If this thread tickles your booty and makes you uncomfortable I have an amazing solution for you. Dont read or comment on it. You should feel better soon if you stick that.

Your own link says the chimp like hominins had pale skin. By the time homo sapiens evolved the skin was dark. Light skin in homo sapiens didnt appear until about 8k years ago and that was due to a mutation.

Nothing you posted is news to me and has nothing to do with what I asked about the bible.

If you had a I dont care button you wouldnt use it because.....well you didnt care right.

Looks like you too have been emotionally injured by a simple question.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Race is not taught in churches. Adam and Eve were the first humans created in a state of grace. What race they were is immaterial.

However, yes a black woman is stupid enough to do what a snake tells her to do. This is where we get the old saying "a black woman will fuck a snake if someone holds its head".

This is a very important fact that should be taught.

Who told you it was immaterial? If it was immaterial why are people trying to hide what race these people are?

[Indeependent]

The verse describes 4 rivers that exit the Garden near Eden and where they lead to.
The rivers lead to various levels of physicality.
It is our spiritual quest to stay in the Garden and not be tempted by anything outside the Garden.
