Well it states somewhere in the bible that Adam & Eve were in modern day middle east. Likely Iraq i believe. Anyway, they were Arab yes?

If so...how did the world progress and get Caucasians, Africans, Aboriginals, Hispanics, etc?

I stumped my mums pastor with this one, still haven't gotten an answer.

Trivially easy; after Cain killed Abel, he was worried that other people in the world would know him as the first murderer and try to punish him, hemnce why God put a mark on him. Clearly, Adam and Eve were created by God, and these "other people" he was worried about were created by, I dunno, Satan or Odin or some such body.

good point... answer: don't interpret the whole bible (e.g.: anywhere before Abraham) literally

If God can create, why can't he cause evolution?

By that logic, everybody on Earth should be black. But of course, that is not the case.

And to answer your question theologically: Tower of Babel.

Middle Eastern people are considered to be caucasian. And why is there so much variation in our species? Well, probably to adapt to varying environments throughout the planet. Most species have a lot of variety among themselves. Variation in a species does not disprove the story of Adam and Eve, in an of itself...though. Just throwing that out there. Maybe this will be yet another 21 long page thread about...;)

Because Christians clearly detest it, causing great amounts of unfortunate irony. Wouldn't God oughta be noting this stuff...like in the bible? How can you live off a "holy book" if it doesn't inform you completely?

Really? I thought God just had some sort of problem with the toner in his copier or something.

Really? The way I heard it, when God kicked the Tower over like your Lego city, he scattered humanity around the world, creating different races, languages, and confusion.

well realistically, it has to do with climate... humans who lived in hotter climates with stronger sun evolved darker skin as protection. I'm pretty sure...

The best explanation for the stories of Adam and Eve and Cain and Abel can be found in this incredible book.
