Seems interesting, eh?

Besides its obvious racial undertones what do y'all think about this?

Personally, it somewhat reminds me of the Creationist Movement (the one formerly known as the World Church of the Creator) but in a much less rigorous form...

It just seems to be the same thing as many other beliefs, just told slightly differently.

If you like the sound of that you might like "Conversations with God" by neale donald walsch. In fact I can bet on you liking it. Very in depth.

It is almost as if people will follow anything....

I don't understand the racial part. It seems to me that racial separation would hinder the possibility of some sort of higher consciousness as a species, and that races and cultures amalgamating would actually be part of that process.

There is no such thing as Race in humans biologically speaking We are a single Race, the Human Race.

You know I actually agree with you on that one.

Skin color is mostly an adaptation to the amount of light in an area, I don't think it's a big enough of a genetic variation to consider people of different color a different race. We are all almost genetically identical, those slight genetic differences make a big physical difference, but not enough to make us anything "non-human". There is not much survival pressure, if any, on us as a race to for much change to take place.

It depends on how different, biologically and culturally, you require things to be before they are separate races. You simply seem to be redefining the word to require a greater difference than there is in humanity. Basically, your statement is meaningless.

You can probably find some more on my meaningless statement online, such as articles related to the Human Genome Project in which it was verified in the mind of most scientists that there are indeed not enough factors or differences in people geneticially and biologically to define them each into races, but that we are one, human race. This is probably based on what scientists mostly agree a biological race qualification to be.
