Black Spirituality Religion : concise refutation...

I assume you know that many black men have plenty of hair on there bodies and many white men dont although, in general, white men have more body hair then black men, overal, it's not all one way and none of the other.

Yes. Absolutely. One of my sons is hairy all over and he is dark skinned. Nevertheless, as you said, this trait is more common in white men and women.

your funny wordplay on AbraHAM is pitiful. I don't think anyone logical would think that the ham in the english language part of abram (later changed to abraham)'s name was referring to the tribe of Ham in hebrew.

Oh but yes, it does!
God changed Abrah's name to AbraHam and this is definitely because of his dual origin as he and his progeny intermixed with the descendants of Ham. Yes, this word play may seem ridiculous to you, but it is an indication of AbraHam'r origin in Ur of the Chaldees and of his progeny.

maybe one day we'll get a book of hebrew etymology and see what we can find but its so ridiculously far fetched i would'nt consider it necessary my hebrew is non existent anyway (my arabic is semi conversant).

That would be welcomed by me. The etymology of Hebrew words and language is crucial to understanding ancient history, so by all means do so. Again, the inheritance of AbraHam linked to Cush Ham, Ur of the Chaldees, and his progeny in Egypt for 400 years in the land of Mizraim Ham seems far fetched to you but hopefully you will open your mind to see that it is not far fetched at all.

My first issue is whether or not anyone here believes the argument stating that black people are the original people because their skin color is the color of soil (earth) as I've had someone use that on me and it's very, very easy to refute.

I don't believe the world was ever all one race at all and don't believe in any type of racial supremacy.

Please let me know what you think.

A few points to toss in:
1. Color wasn't really a big issue in ancient times so any seeming reference to it is not about race.
2. The oldest known African tribe had a mix of skin tones from light to medium brown.
3. Some diseases and cancers can affect the skin pigmentation
4. Human beings back then had no problems making babies with different hues
5. Foreign men and women are seen as exotic because survival of the species favors genetic diversity
6. Albinism is a "genetic condition".

Black people are not the original people because our skin is the color of soil. The color of soil is naturally that color. Likewise, most animals are not naturally white.

In the bible, the writers seem to use "leprosy" to suggest a condition in which a person's skin turned white. And it was treated like an invading contamination until it had fully taken over the skin. White skin was also associated with death because of gravity causing blood to drain and accumulate in parts of the body causing discoloration.

If the leprosy theory is true then lepers were forced to leave and ended up in leper colonies to the north. IF that's true and they made babies with each other, the resulting children could have had pale skin along with a higher tolerance for the colder northern climate without the sickness that may have been more of an indication of the body fighting a disease where as the children carried the antibodies from birth. Again... IF. Can't really say this is factually true.
