Skin Color Research Confirms Biblical Narrative

by Jeffrey P. Tomkins, Ph.D. *

People over the ages have placed great emphasis on race and skin color. Eugenicist-minded Darwinists have used it as the basis for much ill-conceived mischief.1 Even Darwin himself proposed that darker-skinned human populations were more primitive. However, we now know that all people groups share the same basic genome comprised of a well-documented set of common genetic variants. Darwin was mistaken—no people group is more primitive than another.

Somalia & an average IQ of 68 seems to call this conclusion into question.

The Bible is true, on all levels!

The Tanakh and particularly the Torah is a holographic record of the boundary conditions the Ein Sof established for all the events in the Universe focusing on the 7000 year salvation plan. The Gematria and Equal Letter Skip (ELS) coding tell us of the importance of the ending of Hebrew year 5777 and the start of Hebrew year 5778.

For me, the key verse is not in the Torah, but in the “Tweets” of King Solomon. Wisdom is explaining the creation of the world, and she says:

PRO8:27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:

God. KING JAMES BIBLE TOUCH - KJV (Kindle Locations 26322-26323). Kindle Edition.

This verse tells us that the Ein Sof used the “Laws of Form” revealed to George Spencer-Brown around 1957 to create the Universe by making the first distinction between inside and outside, i.e., drawing a circle on the face of the deep. This is why Genesis starts with Bet.

The Law of Forms provide the foundation for the Universe as an accounting system based on complex whole numbers. It explains why naming is important to the Ein Sof. Introduces the concept of the cross, as in crossing a boundary. It explains memory (and Elohim remembered Noah), oscillation (there was evening and there was morning), and mapping. Everything needed to support the Salvation Plan: “And Abraham believed Elohim and it was accounted to him as righteousness.”

Since it takes at least two dimension to form a boundary, the Law of Forms explains why Burkhard Heim, in 1948, assumed quantization of area, he was able to drive a seventh degree equation which describe the Universe as starting as three spheres, or as the Sages say, three books.

So we stand at the point in history when knowledge has increased so that we can understand how the Ein Sof made the world, and that it is quite literal to say that He did it by writing the Torah and that the Tanakh records the final vessel that the Potter crafted.

DAN12:04 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

God. KING JAMES BIBLE TOUCH - KJV (Kindle Locations 35487-35488). Kindle Edition.

The Book of Daniel has been unsealed. The wise would do well to heed its prophetic warnings.

If you allow yourself to become a ward of the state when you don’t have to be one then you are in the same league as a pet! You will give paw, lay down and vote as you are told. That to me makes some people more primitive than I am.

This is true. During the 1860s and before, there was something called the “two creations theory” in the South. It was preached from pulpits in the slave owning areas and was basically meant to justify slavery by asserting that non-whites were inferior and created in a separate creation to serve whites. They used the fact that Genesis has two creation accounts to justify this.

This also meant that the Africans weren’t quite human and therefore didn’t have to be or actually couldn’t be baptized (there were some counties in Georgia that had the death penalty, never carried out, for missionaries evangelizing the African slaves).

Our bishop in my Southern town went to the First Vatican Council (held in the 1860s but never formally ended until recently because of the invasions related to Italy’s internal struggles) to preach against the two creations theory and get a vote on it. The theory was virtually unknown in Europe and the rest of the bishops had no idea what our bishop was talking about, so it never even came to a vote.

But yes, scientific research does support the idea that there was only one Creation of humanity.

Ruh-roh! Don't tell the liberals; they're convinced that literalist young earth creationism is to blame for "white racism!"

Don't tell the "palaoes;" they'll accuse of of "virtue signaling" and "selling out western civilization!"

And don't tell the Catholics/Eastern Orthodox/Miaphysites/Nestorians; Charles Darwin is a big saint to them.

True. It's my belief that's the culture/political system they're in that determines their fate. Courtesy of an international oil company and a few trips overseas as a worker, it's been my experience that the ambitious ones, or even those willing to work hard will get ahead in a capitalist society.

In the U.S. I've worked with foreign non-whites who marvel at the opportunities available here - and I mean revelations in the vein of "How long has this been going on?"

African and Caribbean blacks especially look down on U.S. blacks as people from another planet because they seem to glory in their ignorance and poverty.

Even foreign whites. I worked with a guy from Russia who showed me his mind-boggling property tax bill (this was in California). I made a comment about blood-sucking politicians and he replied "What are you talking about? In my country I couldn't even own property, but here I can be a LAND OWNER. He was proud as Hell over that. More than once, during lunchtime discussions, the conversations would almost invariably end with "You people don't know how good you have it here."

Now where do you suppose he got that rediculous idea?

Well, I try to agree with this writer.

Then I notice that people who are White like I am, are being blamed for being evil because of their skin color. Some groups are certain this writer is wrong.

Laws that were devised since the creation of our nation, most of which are recognized as the best humanity had to offer on planet Earth, are discredited due to the skin color of the authors.

What this means, is that groups of people are buying into the idea that incarceration for crimes that were proven to have been committed, are somehow unfair. You’re in prison for murder. Is that fair? How about rape, armed robbery, simply shooting and almost killing someone, should you be in prison? Well, according to some people, it depends on your skin color.

How about being responsible? Does that have a bigger impact on your community than Whites who supposed hate you and have determined to make things hard on you? Do men who father children and then don’t stick around, wreak havoc on their children’s lives and the community at large? Some would tell you it’s evil even to ask this question.

The universal language of Math has now come under attack based on the idea the basic truths of the universe are being racially gamed by Whites.

As people come up with this nonsense, I observe, and have to allow for there actually being a difference in ability based on skin color.

I have to admit also, that there are some folks with my own skin color who are advancing some of these sordid ideas.

I also have to admit that there are many people with a different color of skin than my own, who also recognize the sheer idiocy of some of these arguments.

It is their world view that causes me to sustain my belief that there are good people in each race on Earth.

I salute them the same as I salute people of my own racial grouping.

To be honest, my opinion of people is not based on skin color. It is based on how they perform as human beings.

If this is true then why were Europeans living in buildings with cities while Africans of the same time period were living in collections of mud huts despite having MORE natural resources to draw from?

Whether there was one creation or two, wouldn’t all people on the Earth today be descendants of Noah?

I have a certain amount of skepticism about IQ as a stable criterion, since it tends to vary across the individual lifespan, and its measurement can be skewed by stress,hunger, individual temperament and cultural factors.

But even if the aggregate IQ figures are correct, brain scientists and educational researchers agree that nobody --- that's NOBODY --- actualizes their entire genetic intellectual potential.

That leads us to reasonably infer that everybody --- across the bell curve --- benefits from more early stimulation, enrichment, social interaction and educational development; and that other factors than IQ may prove more salient in contributing to personal achievement.

For instance, a diligent and clever typical-Somali will do better than a drugged out white skinned Britannic-American slacker.

IQ as a proxy for overall race superiority is, in my opinion, Bunk with a capital B.

Places with high levels of multi-generational incest (e.g. Pakistan), heavy drug use/alcohol abuse (especially during pregnancy), or extreme-poverty to the extent of childhood malnutrition can have different IQ #s not related to race.

Darwin is not a "saint" in the Catholic Church.

Please stop with the theo-fiction. Leave that to Dan Brown.
