I think you know the answer to these questions.

Simple - those beliefs are wrong.

"Secondly, If we are all from African seed, then what about those of us who insist on believing the purity of races ?"

If the races are pure, ever thought about how all the races could come about from one couple - Adam and Eve?

One again TFS..

Ofcourse this brings about a few dilemmas.

We believe that Adam & Eve existed about 6-10,000 years ago , so how can they date this object to 1.6 millio million years ?

Secondly, If we are all from African seed, then what about those of us who insist on believing the purity of races ?
