You got Europeans, Middle-easterns, Indian, Native Americans, South Americans, Far Eastern, Mongolians, Aboriginals and Africans, etc. These groups while human are so different. If we had been evolving for so long wouldn't there be a dominant race by now or at least much more uniformity? It just seems strange that there are so many different races of one species and they are so different in appearance. How do we explain this scientifically? (The same could said for dogs and other species but I wanted to hear the answer for humans.)

See race as different breeds, like for dogs.

Instead of humans controlling how a dog looks, consider the environment and hooking up with what you find attractive being what determines what breed your kids will be.

Two things -

One: I'm sure those of you who are calling this thread "dumb" and insinuating that the OP is a moron are the first to also chastise and lambast those that deny evolution. He's trying to understand and you're giving him reason to grow stubborn about it.

Two: I don't like comparing humans to dog breeds as it's commonly accepted that all races of humans are mostly equal save for a few exterior traits such as skin tone, eye lids, nose sizes and hair among other traits. The breed of a dog can have a huge impact on its temperament, intellect, and personality which are not seen as big differences between races.
