population resembles ones another more and more as the gene pool shallows. The more people look alike within a particular region, the more closely related they are. Not that overpopulated cities are any better than small towns, but at least you can beat the odds of marrying your cousin pretty easily. The more isolated a population is, the more everyone looks alike. Interestingly, bearing this in mind, it is only reasonable to assume that any population (especcially a large one) must bear the most favorable characteristics possible due to even still existing. Populations bearing unfavorable physical characteristics would have died out and taken those characteristics with them. Im starting to get my head around the fact that it would be impossible for man to have started out shaded. Shades or hues come from combinations of colors. The primary colors are red, blue, and green. A combination of different ratios of red, blue, and green makes up every shade, or hue in the color spectrum. Imagine the way that a beam of white light is separated into a rainbow when passed through a triangular piece of clear quartz. (Pink Floyd fans know this concept) We've all seen it right? So people are so far along now from that initial separation that we are coming back together again. What is "White?" It is "ALL" colors. Get it? So whiteness could only be an indicator that all possible color combinations have occured because seemingly we were separated by color at the beginning. This is only my speculation, but I have reasoned that Cain might have been marked with actual RED skin. Although it is just as good an argument that it was horns. But regardless, I speculate that Shem's line started out bluish-white in color, and Japheth's line started out green, and Ham's line started out red. Their skin I mean. What we find now is over 10,000 years worth of color combining. I think that white people just have all colors present which means they are the farthest thing from an isolated portion of the color spectrum present in modern day man. I don't know anything for sure. It is hard to sift through the gaps in history...there were also three major children of adam and eve which were Cain, Abel, and Seth. Its a long gap, but the primary colors also could arguable have started then. Its like an algebra problem; if mankind is basically ranging from albino to blackish-brown in the color spectrum after 10,000 years of reproduction, then the middle ground should be shades of grey. But we are shades of "Flesh" tones. The peachiness is the primary colors all mixed together and lightened or darkened by pygmentation (exposure to sunlight over generations). If you dont believe me then go out and sit in the sun...what happens? You turn red, which mixes with your skin tone to darken the hue. So the skin can be red. I do not know when anyone turns green for any natural reason, but I've heard of people saying they look green when they have a hangover, or are very ill. Skin does turn blue naturally in fairly normal circumstanced involving suffocation, and hypothermia for example. i love you all as i love myself |

There have been blue people. Really. They are actually documented I think in old Kentucky or Tennessee hills. Am thinking maybe a ship of blue-skinned aliens crashed and mixed with the people. It is very rare now, but from time to time a baby is born and is really blue (and a.o.k.) and then turns white (much like black babies are born white and turn brown). The old-timers know about this. It is in Biblio somewhere this subject of blue skin. |

shem's line is from seth's line so seth might well have been blue-white. in fact it stands to reason. Though the arguement that seth was either blue or white can be made, with the accompanying white or blueness developed between the time of seth and the time of shem. You know that men are not mixed with fallen angels after the flood. They have to shapeshift or use technology to look like us. I have seen that video about how aliens started israel too, and its nonsense in my opinion. If you think about mankind and the society in which he lived before the flood of noah, and also the babylonians, you will start to realize that it must have been so drastically different that it would seem like some alien planet. You might have seen all sorts of beasts, birds, and fish that have long since been eliminated by the chaotic order of the the surface of this planet, predators, or man himself. In fact you might have seen certain colors of mankind himself eliminated due to changing surface over thousands of years. Blue, or blue-white people would probably be well adapted to the cold and/or lack of oxygen in the air. If earth warmed in general then they might not find a place cold enough to live, or with the right air mixture. Only their offspring with another family could result in their line continuing. Red people would probably be well-suited to extremely hot or maybe sunny weather where the light was not blocked as much by a different atmosphere back then. If the atmosphere changed then they would no longer find a place hot or sunny enough to live. Only their offspring with another family could live. The most interesting is green people. i always want to asociate Japheth with the green. Japheth also seems to go with the sea and wood...maybe you can imagine that his people liked swimming alot? Salt dehydrates the body, which alchohol does too and people become green when hungover/dehydrated. My thinking muscle is stretching here. But whatever made being green a usefull thing for living on planet earth changed. To be fair, a global flood must alter everything. It aint easy bein green aparently. Thats the thing. Its so hard to imagine what the world was like all full of societies before it all was flooded and only one family remained to pass down their physical traits. This family is who the Lord God chose to represent mankind going forward. In his ultimate wisdom we ended up the right colors and shapes for the present environment because it was his will. I only want to know the truth. This is the evidence. When dealing with matters of what christians call the old testament, people should really try reading the Torah. The greek that the bible came from was a translation of the Torah. I find that the english translation of the torah is far easier to comprehend than the old english of the king james bible, or its poor re- translations into modern english dialect by paulite publishing groups. The greek translation of the hebrew is however extremely valuable in that modern english many times mispronounces ancient hebrew in translation unintentionally I assume. Its all right there in genesis. Man it blows my mind. |

64:6 THE SIX SANGIK RACES OF URANTIA AUDIO VERSION 64:6.1 On an average evolutionary planet the six evolutionary races of color appear one by one; the red man is the first to evolve, and for ages he roams the world before the succeeding colored races make their appearance. The simultaneous emergence of all six races on Urantia, and in one family, was most unusual. 64:6.2 The appearance of the earlier Andonites on Urantia was also something new in Satania. On no other world in the local system has such a race of will creatures evolved in advance of the evolutionary races of color. 64:6.3 1. The red man. These peoples were remarkable specimens of the human race, in many ways superior to Andon and Fonta. They were a most intelligent group and were the first of the Sangik children to develop a tribal civilization and government. They were always monogamous; even their mixed descendants seldom practiced plural mating. 64:6.4 In later times they had serious and prolonged trouble with their yellow brethren in Asia. They were aided by their early invention of the bow and arrow, but they had unfortunately inherited much of the tendency of their ancestors to fight among themselves, and this so weakened them that the yellow tribes were able to drive them off the Asiatic continent. 64:6.5 About eighty-five thousand years ago the comparatively pure remnants of the red race went en masse across to North America, and shortly thereafter the Bering land isthmus sank, thus isolating them. No red man ever returned to Asia. But throughout Siberia, China, central Asia, India, and Europe they left behind much of their stock blended with the other colored races. 64:6.6 When the red man crossed over into America, he brought along much of the teachings and traditions of his early origin. His immediate ancestors had been in touch with the later activities of the world headquarters of the Planetary Prince. But in a short time after reaching the Americas, the red men began to lose sight of these teachings, and there occurred a great decline in intellectual and spiritual culture. Very soon these people again fell to fighting so fiercely among themselves that it appeared that these tribal wars would result in the speedy extinction of this remnant of the comparatively pure red race. 64:6.7 Because of this great retrogression the red men seemed doomed when, about sixty-five thousand years ago, Onamonalonton appeared as their leader and spiritual deliverer. He brought temporary peace among the American red men and revived their worship of the " Great Spirit. " Onamonalonton lived to be ninety-six years of age and maintained his headquarters among the great redwood trees of California. Many of his later descendants have come down to modern times among the Blackfoot Indians. 64:6.8 As time passed, the teachings of Onamonalonton became hazy traditions. Internecine wars were resumed, and never after the days of this great teacher did another leader succeed in bringing universal peace among them. Increasingly the more intelligent strains perished in these tribal struggles; otherwise a great civilization would have been built upon the North American continent by these able and intelligent red men. 64:6.9 After crossing over to America from China, the northern red man never again came in contact with other world influences (except the Eskimo) until he was later discovered by the white man. It was most unfortunate that the red man almost completely missed his opportunity of being upstepped by the admixture of the later Adamic stock. As it was, the red man could not rule the white man, and he would not willingly serve him. In such a circumstance, if the two races do not blend, one or the other is doomed. 64:6.10 2. The orange man. The outstanding characteristic of this race was their peculiar urge to build, to build anything and everything, even to the piling up of vast mounds of stone just to see which tribe could build the largest mound. Though they were not a progressive people, they profited much from the schools of the Prince and sent delegates there for instruction. 64:6.11 The orange race was the first to follow the coast line southward toward Africa as the Mediterranean Sea withdrew to the west. But they never secured a favorable footing in Africa and were wiped out of existence by the later arriving green race. 64:6.12 Before the end came, this people lost much cultural and spiritual ground. But there was a great revival of higher living as a result of the wise leadership of Porshunta, the master mind of this unfortunate race, who ministered to them when their headquarters was at Armageddon some three hundred thousand years ago. 64:6.13 The last great struggle between the orange and the green men occurred in the region of the lower Nile valley in Egypt. This long-drawn-out battle was waged for almost one hundred years, and at its close very few of the orange race were left alive. The shattered remnants of these people were absorbed by the green and by the later arriving indigo men. But as a race the orange man ceased to exist about one hundred thousand years ago. 64:6.14 3. The yellow man. The primitive yellow tribes were the first to abandon the chase, establish settled communities, and develop a home life based on agriculture. Intellectually they were somewhat inferior to the red man, but socially and collectively they proved themselves superior to all of the Sangik peoples in the matter of fostering racial civilization. Because they developed a fraternal spirit, the various tribes learning to live together in relative peace, they were able to drive the red race before them as they gradually expanded into Asia. 64:6.15 They traveled far from the influences of the spiritual headquarters of the world and drifted into great darkness following the Caligastia apostasy; but there occurred one brilliant age among this people when Singlangton, about one hundred thousand years ago, assumed the leadership of these tribes and proclaimed the worship of the " One Truth. " 64:6.16 The survival of comparatively large numbers of the yellow race is due to their intertribal peacefulness. From the days of Singlangton to the times of modern China, the yellow race has been numbered among the more peaceful of the nations of Urantia. This race received a small but potent legacy of the later imported Adamic stock. 64:6.17 4. The green man. The green race was one of the less able groups of primitive men, and they were greatly weakened by extensive migrations in different directions. Before their dispersion these tribes experienced a great revival of culture under the leadership of Fantad, some three hundred and fifty thousand years ago. 64:6.18 The green race split into three major divisions: The northern tribes were subdued, enslaved, and absorbed by the yellow and blue races. The eastern group were amalgamated with the Indian peoples of those days, and remnants still persist among them. The southern nation entered Africa, where they destroyed their almost equally inferior orange cousins. 64:6.19 In many ways both groups were evenly matched in this struggle since each carried strains of the giant order, many of their leaders being eight and nine feet in height. These giant strains of the green man were mostly confined to this southern or Egyptian nation. 64:6.20 The remnants of the victorious green men were subsequently absorbed by the indigo race, the last of the colored peoples to develop and emigrate from the original Sangik center of race dispersion. 64:6.21 5. The blue man. The blue men were a great people. They early invented the spear and subsequently worked out the rudiments of many of the arts of modern civilization. The blue man had the brain power of the red man associated with the soul and sentiment of the yellow man. The Adamic descendants preferred them to all of the later persisting colored races. 64:6.22 The early blue men were responsive to the persuasions of the teachers of Prince Caligastia's staff and were thrown into great confusion by the subsequent perverted teachings of those traitorous leaders. Like other primitive races they never fully recovered from the turmoil produced by the Caligastia betrayal, nor did they ever completely overcome their tendency to fight among themselves. 64:6.23 About five hundred years after Caligastia's downfall a widespread revival of learning and religion of a primitive sort—but none the less real and beneficial—occurred. Orlandof became a great teacher among the blue race and led many of the tribes back to the worship of the true God under the name of the " Supreme Chief. " This was the greatest advance of the blue man until those later times when this race was so greatly upstepped by the admixture of the Adamic stock. 64:6.24 The European researches and explorations of the Old Stone Age have largely to do with unearthing the tools, bones, and artcraft of these ancient blue men, for they persisted in Europe until recent times. The so-called white races of Urantia are the descendants of these blue men as they were first modified by slight mixture with yellow and red, and as they were later greatly upstepped by assimilating the greater portion of the violet race. 64:6.25 6. The indigo race. As the red men were the most advanced of all the Sangik peoples, so the black men were the least progressive. They were the last to migrate from their highland homes. They journeyed to Africa, taking possession of the continent, and have ever since remained there except when they have been forcibly taken away, from age to age, as slaves. 64:6.26 Isolated in Africa, the indigo peoples, like the red man, received little or none of the race elevation which would have been derived from the infusion of the Adamic stock. Alone in Africa, the indigo race made little advancement until the days of Orvonon, when they experienced a great spiritual awakening. While they later almost entirely forgot the " God of Gods " proclaimed by Orvonon, they did not entirely lose the desire to worship the Unknown; at least they maintained a form of worship up to a few thousand years http://urantiabook.org/newbook/papers/p064.htm |
