Bible's View of Race is Different Than How Society Views It!

For all of the racial strife and division that is found across the earth, it's interesting to realize that how God and Scripture view race is very different from how modern societies tend to view it, per skin color / tone, hair type, facial features, etc. God created the genetics that produced the various physical characteristics of men and women, but those superficial attributes are not what He focuses on. So why is mankind so obsessed with sorting humans out per these things? Even our tax forms tend to have a question about racial self identity. And science also tells us that humans cannot be accurately sorted per our various physical and genetic characteristics - that there is no scientific basis for such a "neat sorting / categorizing.

Anyway, here's a great article on the topic of race from both a Biblical AND scientific perspective!

Ah, but RACISM is quite real and universal - it's a human infection found across the globe - but what does the Bible say about it?
