[QUOTE]Originally posted by rasol: [QB] [QUOTE]This is bull****. We don't really know how skin color originated. [/QUOTE]Actually it's science, and you are simply ignorant of it. Skin color is caused by genes, and the history of genes can and has been assessed. It only frustrates you and makes you swear [most unacademical I must say], because it completely shattered your cherished race-delusions. [QUOTE]The Eskimos have lived in an Artic environment for thousands of years and yet they remain dark. If environment causes skin color why are the Eskimos still dark.[/QUOTE]^ False. That environment and skin color have a cause and effect relationship is established every time anyone tans - due to sun exposure. As for the Eskimo, their skin color is no great mystery, here is what a leading scientist on the topic of skin color says: [i]"Looking at Alaska, one would think that the native people should be pale as ghosts," Jablonski says. One of the reasons they're not is that these populations have not lived in the region very long in terms of geological time. But more importantly, their traditional diet is rich in fish and other seafood.... "What's really interesting is that if these people don't eat their aboriginal diets of fish and marine mammals, they suffer tremendously high rates of vitamin D-deficiency diseases such as rickets in children and osteoporosis in adults," Jablonski and Chaplin concluded that modern humans... evolved in the tropics, where they were exposed to high UV levels. But... away from the equator, where UV levels are lower, humans became fairer so as to allow enough UV radiation to penetrate their skin and produce vitamin D, the "sunshine vitamin," also obtained from eating fish and marine mammals... essential for maintaining healthy blood levels of calcium and phosphorous, and thus promoting bone growth. Skin color... becomes a balancing act between the evolutionary demands of photo-protection and the need to create vitamin D in the skin. [/i] - Nina Jablonski ^ Now, Dr. Winters....anyone can play dumb, and refuse to understand, no challenge in that. Likewise anyone can cut and paste massive blobs of spam, that relate no point at issue, and essentially attempt shout-down all unpleasant fact. The real question is- can you refute the scientific explanation of the cause of skin color? If so, present your scientific study or sources of refutation. At any rate, you'll have to do more than just swear in exasperation because the reality of the world isn't what you wish it were. [/QB][/QUOTE]
