The Origin of Humankind
As I travel to different places of the world, I noticed not only the difference in skin colors, but also, the shape of nose, the shape of the eyes, the height, and the hair of people in four continents of the earth that I have reached.
I am a man of many questions in my mind because I am a keen observer of almost everything that I have been privileged to see. I believe my curiosity is one of the factors that led me to a deeper search of truth that I satisfactorily found in the Bible.
If the entire human race came from one family, why is it possible that there are races that stand taller than others having eyes, noses, and hair very much different from another?
The answer to these questions is very well elucidated both in the Bible and in Science. Biblically, the ordinary human can produce ‘giants’.
GENESIS 6:2-4
"That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be a hundred and twenty years. There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown."
The cross-breeding of the sons of God with the daughters of men produced these giants!
Scientifically, giants or men of extra-ordinary height and size can be caused by what is called pituitary growth hormone excess, also known as “pituitary gigantism”.
The human body is an adaptable organism. It can adapt even to extremes in the environment. This ability to adapt itself to a given environment helps in the ‘shaping’ of his physical body. It can be noted that there are places where natives are noticeably with long protruding noses, while the opposite is very much apparent in other places of the globe.
Quick Facts:
Climate clearly has put its imprint on the tint of our skin, the size of our noses, and other physical traits…
…Amid such discussions, however, a consensus exists that climate has influenced the evolution of the human physique.
Skin color, for example, is determined largely by the amount of melanin, a dark pigment, in the outer layer of the skin. (Carotene imparts a yellow tint.) In sunny climates close to the Equator, natural selection has favored dark, melanin-rich skin, which protects its owner by absorbing harmful ultraviolet rays before they penetrate to lower layers. But some ultraviolet light must penetrate the skin so that the body can produce Vitamin D. Thus, at higher latitudes, where sunlight is less intense, pale skin with little melanin is the norm.
Among dark-skinned people, moreover, there are great variations in skin color. The drawback of dark skin is that, like dark cloth, it absorbs more heat from the sun than does lighter skin. In prehistory, anthropologists explain, those who roamed the savannah “traded off” some protection from ultraviolet rays for the reduced heat retention of lighter skin. For forest-dwellers, living in less extreme heat, a darker complexion was an evolutionary advantage.
Melanin also determines eye color. The human eye appears blue when there is no melanin in the outer iris, and turns darker as melanin increases. In the iris, as in the skin, melanin absorbs light, protecting the eye from glare. Thus, dark eyes are generally favored by nature. In Europe, however, almost 50 percent of the population has blue, green, or gray irises, Such people may see further in dim light, but scientists still do not fathom the evolutionary logic of blue eyes – or blond hair, for that matter. The eyes of the Chinese, Japanese, Eskimos, and other people of Mongoloid descent – one third of the world’s population – are protected by epicanthic folds. These folds, composed of fatty tissue, probably evolved among their forebears inhabiting the Arctic in order to insulate the eye against freezing, and to provide an additional shield against glare from snow and ice. Even the human nose adapts to climate.
Inside the nose, a series of wet, mucus-lined air chambers “conditions” inhaled air before it reaches the throat and the delicate air sacs of the lungs, warming it to about 95 degrees Fahrenheit and raising its relative humidity to 95 percent. Humans in cold climates – or in hot, dry ones – thus have the greatest need to condition the air they breathe. Natural selection in such climes generally favors larger noses with more mucus lining: flattened, to protect against frostbite, in frigid environments; long and narrow in arid regions. In a like manner, the size and shape of the human form help the body regulate internal temperature. Over thousands of years, cooler climates tend to produce larger people. The reason: Their extra mass helps them retain heat. Although large people also have more skin surface from which heat can escape, the tradeoff still works to their advantage. As the body grows larger, mass becomes greater relative to skin area. The Alakaluf Indians on the frigid southern tip of South America, for example, are 25 percent taller than the Ituri Pygmies of Central Africa. Yet, the Alakalufs are more than two times heavier – and thus store much more body heat. Variations in body shape complicate the picture. A tall, skinny man has more surface area – and heat loss – than does a shorter, huskier man of the same weight. Thus, cold territories closest to the North and South Poles tend to be populated by stocky folk. In southern Africa, Pygmies, the world’s shortest people, dwell very near the Nilotic tribes (e.g., the Dinka), the tallest. But the Nilotic tribes live in the dry, open savannahs, the Pygmies, in the shaded forests. The Nilotics’ environment puts a premium on having more skin surface to release heat, thus their extremely tall, slender build. And, occasionally, there appear uniquely adapted humans, A notable example: the Khoikhoi women of the open African savannah, who have thin torsos suited to the hot climate, but also protruding buttocks (steatopygia) containing storehouses of fat to draw upon in times of famine. Just as it is difficult to prove a correlation between past climatic change, and, say, the demise of an ancient civilization, so today’s anthropologists are not certain that all their inferences about climate and human evolution are well founded. Very few of the world’s peoples in all their variety now inhabit the same territories where, long ago, their ancestors presumably developed certain characteristics in response to climate. Often, notes Grover Krantz, anthropologists resort to “pulling people out of areas where their… traits don’t fit the environment and putting them back where they do fit”.

The information that was written in the Bible that the human race came from only one family is very much scientifically true. The scattering abroad of the family of Noah in different places of the habitable earth eventually and gradually produced different physical features among them depending on the kind of environment they settled to live.
ACTS 17:26
"And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation…"
Many theories including the infamous Darwinian Theory of Evolution was taught and believed even by reputed scientists; but a fact remains — that we were created by a great God, from the first man and woman; we came from one family (not from apes); with only one language and tongue, which was later confounded by God, for His will to populate the earth with humans be fulfilled.
GENESIS 3:20
"And Adam called his wife’s name Eve; because she was the mother of all living."
God is not the author of confusion, but is a God of order and truth.
I CORINTHIANS 14:40
"Let all things be done decently and in order."
To believe in the theory of evolution is to believe in accidents, for the theory of evolution can only be explained by accidents that allegedly happened in nature, and perhaps in the brains and minds of evolutionists!
To God be the glory!

ReplyDeleteThanks Be To God for this Blogs
I pity those scientists who do not believe in God's creation of man. May God open their minds and may they believe in our great Creator.
ReplyDeleteAnother wonderful blog Mr Controversy proving that the Darwinian Theory of Evolution is wrong. We all came from one family not from apes.
ReplyDeleteThanks be to GOD.
TO GOD BE THE GLORY.
Thanks be to God, Mr. Controversy. May these scientists and evolutionists believe in God's great creation of man.
ReplyDeleteanother great blog! Thanks be to God.
ReplyDeleteThanks be God,

ReplyDeleteWe came from one family... thanks be to God
ReplyDeleteGraças a Deus
ReplyDeleteAmen. Thanks be to GOD for this article.
ReplyDeletea clean and easily catch up article to promote God's power
ReplyDeletethanks be to God
ReplyDeleteIt is better to believe in the Bible for these are the words of God than to believe people who have earthly knowledge regarding origins of man.Id rather prefer manifold wisdom & understanding came from God(Eph.3:10).To God be the glory!!!
ReplyDeleteThe true origin of humankind is written in the Holy Bible as commanded by God to be written. We came from the first man and woman created by God, and not from the ape as alleged by the theory of evolution. The theory of evolution was just a theory and therefore cannot be conclusive and true. Apes or monkeys still exist up to the present time, there should be no monkeys now if the theory of evolution was scientific and true. Thanks be to God!
ReplyDeleteExcellent such publications are important to everyone, especially to those who don't believe in God. That is why I always share them on my Facebook wall and on Twitter, translated into the Spanish language, so that intellectuals can evaluate and analyze them. To God be the glory!¡Thanks be to God and to Lord Jesuschrist!
ReplyDeletealways something good to know/understand. thanks be to God!
ReplyDeleteThe things that were written in the bible were scientifically proven even the things that are not yet discover by science nowadays already written in the bible. Thanks be to God for His beauty that we saw and perceived through the teaching of bro. Eli and bro Daniel. To God be the glory!

Sometimes Science principles and findings are not align on what was written in the Bible. But bible amazingly have words that prove/relates to the future in Science. Thanks be to God!
ReplyDeleteThanks be to God,to God be the glory for this beautiful blog.
ReplyDelete...Let us continue to follow reading this blog ControversyExtraordinary for us not to be confused and the theory of evolution and Big bang theory be taken as commodity for stupid people to make money out of suckers. hehehe
ReplyDeleteThanks be to God for another great blog Mr. Controversy.
ReplyDeleteThe origin of humankind according to the bible. Salamat sa Dios!
ReplyDeleteTo God be the glory! I am very thankful to God that we are wiser than these people who believe in the theory of Evolution. Salamat sa Dios! THE BIBLE WILL REMAIN THE TRUEST OF THE TRUTH FOREVER AND EVER.
ReplyDeleteHi Bro. Eli, I know someone who only believes in the First Five Books of the Bible because according to her the rest of the books were compiled by a Roman Emperor and that only some of the books were chosen to be part of the Bible. She is also against the reality/fact the men are superior than of women because according to her by that, there are only limited opportunities for women. She is also not on your favor since according to her you only base your source from the Bible and that you don't get your from other sources books/researches (which is totally not true because I know for a fact that you are a Historian and a Scientist). I hope you someday, God willing, you can write an article for people like these who have doubts with the Bible and with the existence of God and even with the prophets who wrote on the Bible. Nonetheless, you taught us that we can never force anybody to believe in the Doctrine of Christ just by merely telling them, and that God needs to intervene and open their hearts and minds, without that, talking to these Feminists, Atheists, and of other beliefs will be useless. Salamat sa Dios bro. Eli. -Deb Riveral
ReplyDeleteI believe in teachings of the Bible and not of man. I believe we came from one family.. Salamat sa Dios. Salamat Mr. Controversy.
ReplyDeleteAfter reading this blog issue, I can't help but thank my GOD exceedingly for I am one of His great masterpieces. Truly, I am a descendant of Adam and Eve. However,being born in an Asian environment, my body adapted physical characteristics with a dark complexion, black iris, black hair and flat nose. I am also short in height. Now I know that all these traits are favored by nature!
ReplyDeleteAnyways, whatever our external appearances may be, it is correct to say that the entire human race came only from one family because if by chance we can peel our skin, we will see and realize that we are all biologically brothers and sisters. All our DNA's will boil down to where we were originated...our first parents Adam and Eve.
Thanks be to GOD for this informative blog!
#The Origin of Humankind
Thanks be to God!
ReplyDeleteWe can Say That there Is Really A Great Mystery Of Gods Creation Of Humankind...The Mystery That Man Is Created By God To Do Good...And That Everything That God's Creation Is For The Benefit Of Man.... To God Be The Glory!!
ReplyDeleteWhatever information there is regarding the human race, my conscience tells me that what is written in the bible is the truth. Thank`s to God I am a part of His creation.
ReplyDeleteTHANKS BE TO GOD..
ReplyDeleteI LEARNED THESE FACTS
The true origin of mankind is written in the bible and just read this blog and all of the blogs of Bro. Eli. and surely you will find the truth.
ReplyDeleteTrue logic is based on facts and the bible is based on facts so I do not have any reason to believe the theory of evolution which is based on imagination.
ReplyDeleteWhen Christ came to earth a body was prepared for Him but my question is when the "sons of God" who are angels left there heavenly dwelling to marry daughters of men, where did they they get their earthly bodies???
ReplyDeleteBiblically and scientifically correct.
ReplyDeleteThere is a place in heaven for all who are deserving and also for those upon His mercy in His time so, it is more logical to think that the origin of mankind is what is found in the book of Genesis in the bible than that fiction of imagination of Darwin.
ReplyDeleteLet not the atheist be confused for the love of God there is an everlasting life and for us to have faith in Him who created us.
ReplyDeleteAgain, I look at myself on the mirror and I really look like a pig; I thank God I am not a descendant of the monkey but a man I am a creation of God. hehehe...
ReplyDeleteScience tells me, the monkey lives by instinct alone...now, I have learned by this blogger, man lives by the grace and mercy of God...
ReplyDeleteMy son, do not be indolent like the monkey for you are man, a masterpiece creation of God.
ReplyDeleteThe fact is science cannot explain everything. And where science ends, faith begins...
ReplyDeleteAmen...To God be the Glory! Seeking out the truth, this blog says so and more...
ReplyDeletewow a God's given wisdom,,,
ReplyDeleteSalamat sa Dios. ♥️
ReplyDeleteSalamat sa Dios sa kaalamang bigay sa atin. To God be the Glory.
