I was in an Amish store the other day and I noticed three little Amish kids playing outside. As I watched their rough and tumble antics I was shocked to notice all three exhibited the facial charactorics of mongalism. I brought this to my wife's attention and she was simaliarly shocked. The community was small and my wife wondered what they would do when the inbreeding got to be to much. I postulated that they would swap out some of their people with a similar community and that would insert the new genetic material needed to put the community back on the right track. I am not sure how this happens but that was my guess.
It made me think of the story of Noah. If the flood story was true wouldn't we be very inbred at this point? I mean with so few people; Noah, his sons, and their wives. Who would be the new material to stop our genitic demise? Why would people have differing skin colors? Wouldn't we all be the same? Many Christians say Darwin was a quack but his theory answers the question of why we are all different. The bible just leaves people in the dark, believing a book written by people who thought germs were devils.
