In Genesis, God created Adam, the first man. The Holy Bible is a history book of Adam's people. The Hebrew word for man is Adam itself and actually means to show blood in the face; to be fair; rosy cheeked; to be ruddy; and to be able to blush or flush. One must admit that the other races do not fit this description and therefore, cannot descend through Adam. God declared, "Everything after its own kind". From Adam, there proceeded a chosen line who followed God after righteousness. From Adam's son Seth, to Noah the chosen line remained racially pure and faithful to God. Noah and his family were preserved during the Great Flood while God destroyed the disobedient. Noah's son, Shem, continued the chosen line and these people became known as Shemites or Semites.

A couple of quotes from that site:
(These people are completely batshit crazy.)
"The Jew has an identity, but it is that of a thief who has stolen the history and nomenclature of the really true Hebrews and Semites."
"Only one race answers to the Holy Bible scenario of Israel in the latter days and that is the White Race. Our people are in possession of what Israel was to possess and we are doing what Israel was to do according to God's covenants and promises which Christ came to confirm"
"...when you do or say something embarrassing, your subconscious rushes blood to your face. The colored races, not having been endowed with God's Spirit, have no abstract sense of right or wrong, consequently are never embarrassed." It is a misnomer to call other races or species mankind."
" Let this message be a standard raised up against them. Shake off the dust from your feet kinsman, as a testimony against them. Don't let anybody tell you racemixing is Christian. "And the house of Jacob shall be as fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the Lord hath spoken it" Obadiah 18. Gentlemen, start your ovens. "
As Christians have stolen the Old Testament from the Jews, I bet the history in there is the history of the Jews, you know; the Hebrews.
We pinkish-white people were just a bunch of barbarians up in the north at that time, illiterate pagans living on mead and pig-meat, sacrificing our serfs to appease the gods.
If you think dark-skinned people can't blush, you have never met a dark-skinned person. And what about Chinese and Japanese people, and Hispanic people, they most certainly do blush.
@ Swede --
Most of us weren't sacrificing our serfs. Most of us were the serfs being sacrificed. Though yeah, for most of human history the centers of learning and civilization were in China, the Middle East, northern Africa, and Central America. Europeans are the latecomers to this whole "civilization" thing (not to mention the whole concept of "hygiene").
The Flying Spaghetti Monster enabled you to be a Pastor as a sign that Pasta is the true way to Him, and all other religions are just made-up nonsense.
The FSM is not particularly subtle; his point was obvious to anyone reading your post.
Ding, Ding, Ding! Jackpot. Holy Shit, that page is a Goldmine. Didn't know the KKK changed its name...
Are you sure that isn't "Klansman Redeemer Ministries?"
The first humans appeared in Africa. Deal with it.
And big [citation needed] on "rosy cheeked."
*edit* Ah, I see it's a website for the "Christian Identity" movement, a white supremacist idea that white Europeans are the true children of Israel, Jews are the product of an illicit love affair between Eve and Satan, and all other dark-skinned people are the "mud people" who have no souls. The Christian Identity movement was one of the main driving forces behind the militia groups of the 1990's.
This may come as a shock and surprise to all the racists around but white people are mutants.
Blacks are the original color of humans, by other color of your kin is due to mutations and evolution.
If anything, Adam would have been black as hell and not white in any way!
If your god didn't want races to mix he would've made them unable to reproduce. That shows that either your god is lazy, doesn't give a shit about race mixing, or doesn't exist. Either way, you and your cult need to pull a Heaven's Gate.
The Hebrew word for man is Adam itself
That's just one of a number of enormous clues, to people smarter than you at least, that it's a fucking allegorical myth.
@Swede & Professor M.: Stop getting history wrong.
'Serfs' emerged in the middle ages. Year zero northern Europe was full of tribes. They farmed and fought and elected petty kings. And things. There may have been human sacrifices but they were probably war captives.
At that point most of the continent was full of early Celts. The Germans started a migration around 300 CE out of their further-north spread, and after that it was mostly them. But the Roman and pre-Roman era tribes != the middle ages.
Conversely, Christianity has (to its credit, natch) never gone for straight-up human sacrifice, so the Christian serfs weren't thrown on any altars.
The later-day East European pagans I know fairly little about, though. The old Lithuanian religion, for example, was pretty much purged from history after the conversions.
Actually "Adam" comes from the Hebrew word "Adama" which means "Earth." The Hebrew for man is "ish." I have no idea where you got "show blood in the face" from aside from pastor whitey's imagination.
So, essentially, it would seem that this pastor is telling his flock what they want to hear, i.e. that god favors white people. He is banking on his congregation being too ignorant to call him on his lies, and too lazy to verify what he says. Hey, it worked for the author of Matthew, so why not pastor whitey?
In Genesis, there are justifications for murder, misogyny, rape, lying, anti-science, racism, genocide, and every other terrible thing humans have done. You may be better off drawing support from Mein Kampf.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
