Black Spirituality Religion : What do you think of Christianity's explanation of race?

[John Williams]

Peace & Blessings to you,

Earlier I was thinking about Christianity's claim that each race comes from one of the different sons of the Prophet Noah. Christians claim that Blacks are the descendants of Ham, Whites are the descendants of Shem, and Asians are the descendants of Japheth. Thinking about the claim, it doesn't make any sense that Noah & his wife were White and they had 3 sons, one Black, one White, and one Asian.

What are your views on this claim from the Christians?

Christians can claim what they want, but what does the script state, that would be the focus.

How can the origin of color start that late in time by Noah's sons, after humans were scripted to be on this earth thousands of years prior to their presence on earth!?

If Ham started the 'black race' and Shem started the 'white race', then were the many, many, humans before they were present psychedelic or pink and purple polka dotted, or something? Are you sure that Christians profess that or, did the anti-Christians put out lies to support a supremacist position? What source are you basing that Noah and his wife were White? The movie with Russell Crowe [?] How can Shem put out 'the white race' and then be victims of 'anti-Semitism'? Why would White people be anti-Semitic if they are Semitic? That's like saying a White Supremacist harbors self-hate, and history surely reveals that a White Supremacist does not harbor self hate-- with all their hate groups they have formed to act against people of color.

I prefer a more scientific explanation for the color of people's skin. Melanin or lack thereof based on environmental factors and evolution. That makes more sense than some claim that three individuals started the white, black, and asian races. I have never heard a christian claim this, but I have heard that whole thing about the Hamitic curse and how it supposedly curses black people as a race. I call BS on that.
