Question for the theist

RE: Question for the theist
(March 29, 2014 at 10:26 pm)professor Wrote: To the OP's question, there was sufficient genetic variation left in Noah's sons (from Adam and Eve) and their wives to account for what we call "Races" today.
I might note that after all this time - there is much less variation possible now- unless the races mix back again.

Geez, I can't believe everyone else let you get away with this one! Rolleyes

I've come across this argument before, that pretends that "genetic variation" is something that one can accumulate and spend like a currency, but that's not the case. Do you know how many people it'd take today to maintain a stable population? Here's a hint: it's more than ten.

Just handwaving all this as "from Adam and Eve," doesn't actually account for the practical effects of that, not that I think you actually know anything about what you're talking about. It's pretty obvious that "genetic variation" is just a magic word you're invoking to be vague and avoid the fact that such a thing just isn't possible.
