As always, great wisdom here. The key to this is to recognize the different races that God made and embrace our common humanity.

God "made" or created only one set of parents. He "made" no others. There is only one human race. We have to get these definitions straight. Just because all my children look and behave and sound differently does not mean they are all from different parents or are of different races.

Look...God created one race of people with a genetic woodpile so diverse and varied that there are ALL kinds of different looking "humans". Point is, WE ARE ALL HUMANS. And the varied combination of genetics is ONGOING. This is not a static reality that happened once. Our God-given gene pool is constantly combining to produce new and varied results that evil people want to use to divide us. This is important.

Phil, I would say that the development of different races from the one set of parents still supports the statement that God “created” different races, albeit through Divine Intent or will. He certainly built a diverse genetic code into those first parents, and apparently the resulting diversity was furthered by the very human characteristic of like being attracted to like. And one would guess that the differing races developed early in the history of mankind. By the time of Moses there was an Ethiopian race, from which his wife is said to have sprung.

Great rationalization but it doesn't hold up. You are mis-defining "race". Does that make them non-human or a lessor human or perhaps a superior human? Marxists and eugenicists would say yes. This was the whole basis for the willful extermination of the "Jewish race" by the "German" Nazis as...and I quote, "an inferior diseased race."

Here is the straight definition: there is only one Human Race. As it is written, so it shall be.

Your wife's background is from the Ethiopian culture which has similar cultural and genetic characteristics which I assume are different from yours. So what? Because you are both of the human race, I also assume you two have no problem breeding together. The term "race" is improperly used in your example.

Total hogwash, Phil.

You even get the WWII post victory jewish propaganda wrong. I bet you even believe in the "holocaust" hoax.

If one believes that God guides all of history, then "All things came into being through Him, and without Him not even one thing came into being that has come into being." John 1:3 Berean Literal

"God "made" or created only one set of parents."

LOL!! So who did Cain marry and have children with?

Aren't you being divisive by spouting a portion of your own mythology?

In Genesis 1, god makes man and woman at the same time. In Genisis 2 god, even though he could magically create all of the matter in the universe, ran out of materials and had to run to Lowes for a bag of topsoil from which to create a man. Then he had to steal a rib from man to use the stem cells to create a woman. Then man goes into woman a couple of times and they create two offspring. Then one of the offspring kills the other, so a third offspring magically appears. At this point, these are the only four people on the planet, supposedly. But magically the 'boys' go over the hill to the next town, wherever that came from, and found themselves some wives.

It all makes perfect sense.
