We are green and yellow not black and white. OLAADEGBU I have my suspicions that your moniker is just a moniker with no cultural relationship with its owner. |

OLAADEGBU: We're Not "Black and White"—Everyone Is Brown by Ken Ham on August 11, 2020 "Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world, red and yellow, black and white,"—wait! “Red and yellow, black and white?" Is that accurate? Are people really different colours or different races? And doesn't this cause kids to look on the outside differences as major when in reality they are only minor genetic differences? Learn more |

OLAADEGBU: That line in the well-known children’s chorus “Jesus Loves the Little Children” implies the existence of different races. And while the sentiment that Jesus loves children, and all are precious in his sight, is certainly biblically accurate, this idea of “red," “yellow," “black," and “white" comes from the idea that people have different skin colours and belong to different races. But everyone has the same basic skin colour from the brown pigment melanin, but they have varying shades. Learn more |

OLAADEGBU: Based on Darwin's ideas, generations were taught that there were different races on the earth, with the supposed Caucasian race at the top. For example, in a textbook published in 1914 and used across America, high school biology students were taught: "At the present time there exist upon the earth five races . . . the highest type of all, the Caucasians, represented by the civilized white inhabitants of Europe and America."1 ![]() Learn more |

OLAADEGBU: While such ideas are consistent with evolutionary beliefs (although observational science has shown these ideas to be utterly wrong and most evolutionists have since abandoned them), Christians should immediately recognise that they run contrary to biblical truth. God's Word teaches that we're all descended from the first two people, Adam and Eve (Genesis 1:27, 3:20, 1 Corinthians 15:45), and therefore there is only one race of humans (Acts 17:26)—Adam's race. Sadly, at the time of Darwin, many Christians had already compromised God's Word with the belief in millions of years and therefore didn't stand on the authority of God's Word and the true history of the world to refute Darwin, and others', dangerous and racist teachings. We aren't "red and yellow, black and white"—we're all brown. Everyone is brown. Some people are very light brown; others are very dark brown, and others are in-between. But everyone is a variation of the same basic colour—brown. Now there are other factors such as fat in the skin, closeness of blood vessels to the surface, and so on that can give some differences. But that doesn't negate the fact everyone is the same basic skin colour. You see, each person has a brownish pigment in their skin called melanin. While other pigments and factors are involved, melanin is the main pigment that gives each person their individual skin shade. And the amount of melanin a person produces is determined by their genetic makeup, inherited from their parents. To put it simplistically, if a person has a small amount of melanin, they will have a light brown shade of skin. If a person has a lot of melanin, they will have a dark brown shade of skin. It's not a matter of black and white—everyone is brown! That biological fact is the basis of an ad campaign we recently launched.
