re: How do you explain the origin of the various human races scientifically?

This thread is great. I love how humans try to explain God and other things that humans are not meant to understand. We are an obsessed species at trying to "factualize" information.

(if we can't prove it, it must not be real)

Well, Newton also had this line of thought about certain scientific principles that we now know of today. When he couldn't figure it out, he just said it had to be divine in origin. Turns out he was wrong about many of those, so why shouldn't we assume that everything will eventually be scientifically explainable? Should we just denounce everything that we don't understand as divine and really just march straight back into the cave? Seems with your line of thought, we never would have left the cave and challenged ourselves as a species.
