Yesterday we learned that biblically and scientifically, we’re all one race. So, why do we look so different?

Well, the answer takes us back to the Tower of Babel. The entire human population was gathered there and spoke one language. This gathering was a direct rebellion against God’s command to spread out and fill the earth. So God judged the people’s sin by confusing their languages, forcing them to spread out.

As these family groups dispersed, they became isolated. Their unique genetic characteristics soon became prominent within the groups. Isolation caused new cultures to develop.

You see, the Tower of Babel explains our many differences.
