So... we're reporting tabloid articles as news now?

You know my wife had children with her alien abductor last month. It's really bumming me out.

Or they're just reporting it. This is the appropriate section of the site for it. It's a big internet mang.

It look like somebody was . . . until I see some DNA results.

Ham

I can tell you dont get out much the SUN is a tabloid. And if you had intelegents the gene side of this would intrest you just the same

Adam and Eve were white? What a joke! If you believe in the Bible they would have to be of color because you can not get color from no color biologically. If you have melanin originally, there can be some mutation to remove or significantly decrease the melanin and thus get white but if you don't have melanin it can not be magically added to produce color. Keep in mind that most people of the world are races of color, the minority are without. If Adam and Eve were white it would seem to reason that most of the world would be Euro looking or Caucasian.

I would really suggest a paternity test - just to be sure. This sounds a little bizarre since they come from a country where there has been very little racial mixing.

You would think that they would do DNA testing to determine the idenity first , babys can get mixed up in the hospital. I do know a couple in the virgin islands that this happened to. the baby was theres.

its true..thats awesome how genetics work.

if this is not tabloid, and saying if it isnt, i say she cheated on him, plus genetics, and women, dont hit on me for this, not every woman is like this, but there are some women that will go around and cheat on their husbands, and i say only women because of the pregnancy part, but again, it could be a rare genetic thing, but who knows, people today do strange things

and if it is a tabloid, who cares, people are commenting on this anyways, genetics is an interesting thing, there could be two blue eyed parents and have a brown eyed child, either the mother or father or both have the recessive or dominant gene for blue or brown eyes, and if its not because of genetics, i sorta feel sorry for the husband being with her, if she is going behind him, im sorry for the guy, i mean seriously, how is it fun to have an affair or be unfaithful

I agree with you dan, saphire234, CNJ Mom, tuyamayk (and a few others here), DNA and genetics aside, GOD is capable of doing anything 'He' sees fit to do, and that includes blowing the human mind (limited access of knowledge of God's ways is quite evident I see). Whatever the 'truth' is congrats to the happy couple.

and even if this is a tabloid, stuff like this does happen, women going behind their loved ones and end up having a baby that doesnt seem to belong to the husband, and y'all women out there will read this and reply back at this negatively, im not saying that every woman does this, but there are some that will do it, it happens, and we just have to deal with it, i know us guys do it too, but we dont have to worry about ending up having a baby that is different from the both of them

I think that God is capable to make anything happen. Why people always have to assume that the woman cheated on her husband. Yeah its better to be safe than sorry and have a dna done. It could be anything like the hospital mixed the babies up at the hospital or it truely is their child. People cant always assume that the woman had an affair just because the baby is of a different color. God aaawwweeess the world all the time. He does work in mysterious ways.

i think thisis a sign from god lke what if thi sbaby is the anti-christ being born likr think about it

All you guys that say there's something to do with Adam and Eve and "God" are complete morons. First off, that woman is probably a whore just like most others, chances are she cheated on her husband, I mean hell it happens all the time, people need to quit being so ignorant. And hey, people CAN assume the woman had an affair BECAUSE the baby is of different color. This case is unheard of, and hey, what black people are born with blond, curly hair; NONE. Mothers a whore, God and Adam and Eve simply aren't real, people that believe in such garbage is only because to give themselves hope that after you die things will be okay. Sorry guys, there is no heaven, there is no hell, the center of the earth is f**kin molten lava and the "heavens", guess what people. it's just clouds, don't be so stupid. Religion is like disease that spreads like the plague, brainwashing any who fall for it. For example, my mother has bipolar and all sorts of other mental problems, she claims god 'spoke through her' but guess what, she was sent to the mental hospital for it because the correct term for believing something that simply has no proof of existence AT ALL- pretty much means your crazy... some of you are pathetic with your philosophies on how this baby was born and how life started out. Listen to SCIENTISTS, people that actually do studies for this exact reason; don't fall for garbage that comes out of a priests mouth that only rapes little altar boys.

try and study the genetics and u will know that black gene is dominant and white gene is recessive and u can get white from black and not black from white unless from sexual intercourse or sperm donations this is real not about tabloid papers

Personally, I don't care. Nigeria is the scam capital of the world!

The mother probably slept with a white man.

I agree w/Charles. Everythng that we need to know about this "phenomena" began w/Adam & Eve. All of the races of human began w/them, so genetically speaking, their DNA represents all colors of humans.

WHOA!!! Hey Washington!!! Isnt it time for your therapy session? You'd better get going. We will be here when you get back, Dude!

Rosebud check your genetics book. Whatever eye or skiin color that is in your genetic makeup can manifest at anytime. Heres an idea I havent hear anyone express: Maybe they switched the baby in the hospital!!!! Huh? Huh? That baby is NOT mixed-race; she is a caucasian. Not even Aboriginals are that blond nor that white.

if it was switched in the hospital then why arent some other white couple complaining of having a black kid.i think ill stick with the idea of dna test to be certain.Even though alot of strange things are happening lately.

Hey, somebody get over to Washington's house and sedate him before he hurts others.

True. This proves that all humans originally came from one set of parents. Adam & Eve.

so were all just one big happy incestuous family?

WOW Tuyamayk you're such a moron!

Black babies are born with fairly light skin, and then darken. This case is, I believe a facade.

Adam and Eve were of ruddy colored skin (caucasian). Black, Asian, the other races were on the earth long before the caucasian race. They were not born from Adam and Eve. Adam and Eve were not the first humans on the earth.

No two blue eyed parents can have a brown eyed child.

Two brown eyed parents can have a blue eyed/blond child....I know both my sons are blond and blue eyed, while my husband and I are both brunette/brown eyes, but fair skin. We do have European heritage.

if you go by the adam and eve theory what were there skin tones? black and white? or as the church says both were white? either way we are all from the same form of beings wether it be apes or created.

We could throw anything out there... maybe they were both tanned and as people moved to different places and climates and married people who looked similar to them (darker with darker, and lighter with lighter) then came differend races. But im sure if it was of any real importance it might have been mentioned in the Bible. Clearly we as people have put way more of an emphasis on ones physical attributes than God wanted. Anyway, is this story even real? haha...

Amen!!

1. well my philosophy says that the first race were black and from black came all colors, just like the universe from dark to light nothing comes from light everything from dark, Adam and Eve were the fifth human creation, and they were white. before them for for millions of years there were other races of all colors the white race were the last race, and they were created not naturally they were done with techknowledge much more advanced then today. well i can go but that will be a book and maybe other things that we of today are not ready for but the scientist, the catholic churches and others with knowledge already know all this, it will all come to light in next couple decades.

could this be a recessive gene that dates way back to slavery days...? if they are from nigeria (africa) isn't that where it all began...? Maybe some body had children with a slavedriver on both sides who passed as black kids and it has remained secret, therefore the no knowledge of white ancestry...am just saying it's a possibility.

Im puerto Rican and my daughter father was from Haiti. When i gave birth to my daughter she came out white. i couldn't believed my eyes but you know what after the years she turn out to be darker then me and lighter then her father. And it doesn't mater to this couple it's still there baby. In my country theres a phrase.(padre es el que cria no el que lo hace) father is the one that race them not who makes it...meaning that know in days you don't need to have sex with the men.

Not really odd. It's genetically possible, but rare. No need for DNA testing, as there isn't a white couple with a black baby going WTF?

LOL @ shaintell!!! I was wondering but it seems your right!? Isn't this supposed to be scientifically impossible though? :S :S

Lol they see the baby when it comes out of the womb.

There was a DNA test done and the child is in fact the fathers. The parents have authorized further genetic to check for recessive genes.

half human, half na'vi babies from avatar would be awesome. :)

doesn't look like you'd be able to tell the difference, since avatars are just human dna mixed with na'vi

who says we have not?

Wow, it's amazing how so many pple will comment telling others they are morons when they can't even use words in the correct context. "There's" and theirs are 2 different words. Theirs describes possessive while there describes location. ie Here and There. Enough English lesson for the day. o,0

Some of you pple are so closed minded, it's not even funny. It's NOT impossible for a black couple to have an Albino baby. The same recessive gene scenario that happens in some animal species such as Deer does happen in the human race as well.

They did and it is theirs. This isn't all that uncommon and has in fact happened before. We just live in a more global world and access to the internet makes news like this spread faster.

I worked in an acute hospital, in the OB/GYN/Newborn Nursery. There are mixups in the hospital...not often, but there are mixups. This is a joke, or a mixup.

When I look at the picture...they are not holding, embracing the baby like I would think parents would do with a newborn. This is a setup

@Rosebud-They are Nigerian and they had a white baby, of course they don't want to hold it closely like you would a newborn. If I had a black baby I am pretty sure I would not be holding it all lovingly at first, not until I had answers. I know that seems wrong but people are just like that.

Anderson is not blonde. Before he went gray/silver - he had brown hair.

Ol' Anderson plays for the other team.........................but still a good opponent!!!!!!!!!!!!! Enjoy his reporting.

Yeah but he still needs a woman/surrogate if he wants to have kids. He has said before that he wanted a family one day.

A "mix up" is accidentally picking up someone else's luggage at the baggage claim (many bags look alike, ya know)...this is more along the lines of "Has the cocaine totally destroyed your brain?!"

Sounds like tabloid fodder to me.

lol

People, if there were a mixup at the hospital we'd be reading to very similar articles only the other article would be a white couple looking at a black baby!

What if it turns out that white people are stupid? I mean we already suspect that just from watching COPS and Glenn Beck, but what if they can prove it?

What an idiot you are! When your white ancestors were in animal skins, the Chinese and Nubians(Black Africans) had very advanced cultures. Are you Nazi or KKK you douchebag? By the way, you imbecile,I am blonde and blue eyed. Crawl back into your hole you imbecile!

@Portland49 I'm glad at least a few of us paid attention in school! hahaha!

@Mike the Texan....there's a book of anthropology called "The Mismeasurement of Man" That actually disproves that theory...we are pretty much anatomically the same.

The only reason we have different sized brains is because of the amount of protein (because protein builds muscle & the brain is a muscle) that is consumed in a certain populations diet & skull shape is due to how certain societies hold, wrap & cuddle their children

Our cheek bones, jaw lines & brow lines may differ because of adaptation linked to race but no mch else is different....so.....yea....

OK, Miss O'Hara23 I do not even know where to begin. you say that different sized brains are because of different dietary habits because the brain is a muscle blah blah. What biology class did you take? The brain is not a muscle nor does it have any structural relevance to muscle. WOW. Muscles have actin, myosin, Sarcomeres as units. Neurons have axons, dendrites, myelin sheaths, etc etc. They are so far from the same it is astounding. They are not even of the the same tissue type and there are only 4 of those.

After that I cannot take any "science" you have to discuss seriously because you lack a very basic understanding of biology. But i digress....

In regards to Mike the Texan,

While it is extremely taboo, there is in fact growing support of his points. Anyone who cares to do some reading can turn to "Discover magazine presents Origins" summer 2010 and read the article "Who will we be tomorrow?" which is talking about divergent evolution in humans and this exact argument.

While I do not believe any race to be superior to any other, there is no scientific evidence at all to support the idea that we are all the same under the skin. In fact, it would follow the principles of evolution that we are NOT all the same underneath. Evolutionary pressures led to external changes due to different environments, for example higher melanin in response to higher UV doses. It would only follow that these vastly different climates and cultures would produce internal changes to allow people to be best suited to their environment on the INSIDE as well as the OUTSIDE. Yes it is taboo to say this, even in the scientific community. But being taboo does not mean it is false. I would ask anyone to show me the flaws in my logic as I would be happy to discuss it, and no the bible doesnt count.

Humans have 99.8% of the same genes. 80% of this variation is within ethnicity, 14% is within "race" smh, and 6% is between "races".

we share close 2 a 99% genetic similarity to chimpanzees, gorillas, and extinct species of man.

there is no such thing as "race".

It has been proven that all men descended from an African, most likely an Ethiopian, Eritean, or Somalian. An "Asiatic Black Man".

This is a lesson in genetics. nonwhites can produce a large possiblity of offspring. Whites (particularly "Nordic" europeans) are genetically recessive, and can only produce their phenotype with another white.

The susceptability to genetic assimilation is the cause for most of the white supremacist idiotic posts i've seen on this board today. They see themselves as a different, more evolved "race" and fear "extinction"...When will they learn we are all men...(and women)

have a nice day.

what are you talking about 80 percent is ethnicity and 14 % is race? for this argument they are synonomous.... so then 94% of the differences in humans are between races? besides like you said, we are 99% similar to the great apes, and yet look how important that 1% is, look what a difference that made.

But before you call me a white supremist, I agree with you that we are all men and I do not see any race as inherently better (or worse) than any other.

Also, your lesson in genetics is horrendously flawed. You are assuming that A, being white or being not white is controlled on a single locus that is a dominant/recessive, when in reality it is probably controlled by many many loci some of which are probably co dominant. Also if you actually ever took a genetics class than you would remember those stupid squares where, aha, 2 people with dominant phenotypes have a child with a recessive phenotype! so in your example a white and a non-white, can in fact produce a white! BUT like I said this is not controlled on a single locus, so the effect in real life would be more of a blending between the two parental strands. Also, recessive genes are no more likely to go to extinction than dominant genes, and if I remember correctly they are actually less likely because whatever evolutionary forces are at work would not be able to select against the hidden recessive allele. Redheads breath a sigh of relief.

Aggie,

I said within a particulary ethnicity.

That means that between Anglo Saxons, there is 80% genetic variation in the .2% that you are different.

ONLY 20% of your genes are the same.

for an Anglo Saxon and a Greek

ONLY 14% of your genes are the same.

so only 20% of genetic variation is based on particular subgroups of people.

As for your pummet square, i believe you are correct, but white skin isn't the only factor of being The master "Aryan" race. Straight, blond or light brown hair, blue or green eyes are another 'desired' trait.

facial structure, eye shape, nose shape, lip size are other determinig factors of "race".

if you account for these other physical features, i'm no mathmatician, but there has to be an exponential or factorial based decrease in the probablity that ALL of these features will be in line with the "Aryan race".

Thats what i meant.

Oh, recessive genes becoming "extinct"...thats not me, that's white nationalist rhetoric. Just browse stormfront you'll see that pervasive theme.

So i think you're agreeing with me...That people are subgroups, not 'races' as "race" as far as taxonomy goes is equivalent with "subspecies". There are white dogs, black dogs, big dogs, small dogs...but they are all dogs...to be politically incorrect, "races" are more equivalent to "breeds" than actual races.

I'm a pretty good problem solver, but no geneticist or mathmatician. I'm just applying my limited knowledge on these concepts to the human understanding of "race". Race and ethnicity as man knows it is NOT biological, but based on phenotype and appearance.

While it's immensely amusing that every racist decided to assume that since I'm saying the races are different I must therefore be a white male supremacist(inferiority complexes must abound on msn news), it's also sad that so many people are willfully ignorant.

I mention superior intelligence and creativity and everyone automatically decides I'm talking about whites. Who were you lot calling a racist again, hmmm? Or maybe you all already believe what I suspect to be true, but just won't admit it to yourselves.

Though TekKnowledge had his percentages off quite a bit, he was mostly correct and largely made my point for me. The fact that humans are merely a few percentage points away from being chimpanzees should tell you just how much even an 0.1% of genetic difference between races of humans can make. I really feel bad for people who keep spouting the "we're all the same" dogma. Reminds me of people who adamantly insisted that the earth was flat, despite all the evidence saying otherwise.

You just keep shouting it long enough and maybe it'll come true. Ha.

As far as racial superiority goes, the mere idea of racial superiority is nonsense. How would you even define it? How fast you can run or how high you can jump(africans)? Intelligence(asians, though do keep in mind we still aren't exactly sure what intelligence is, but I'm going by the best available measure so far - IQ)? Innovative/creative thought(whites)? No race is the best at every everything, and anyone who tells you otherwise is ignorant.

Everyone should take a moment to read what Aggie993 wrote. The idea that human beings evolved the same on the inside when we didn't on the outside when isolated in vastly different geographical conditions over thousands of years is nothing short of idiotic. Get your heads out of the sand and read a book or two, people. Tibetans evolved their differences from Han Chinese(the biggest one being the ability to live easier at much higher altitudes) in mere centuries, so feel free to laugh at anyone who tells you it would take dozens of millenia.

Mike,

so true or false...

have white supremacists or have they not used genetic differences of people to promote their superiority and abuse other "races"??

its nonsense. The stereotypes have contributed to the global exploitation of people and resources based on skin color.

Have our standards of beauty, intelligence, and piety NOT been shaped by the ideas of Europeans...

what is beauty?? "intelligence"?? these people are trying to quantify things that aren't purely quantitative. Its absolutely ridiculous.

Thanks for the clarification on the genetic differences in an ethnicity, that is good to know and I see what you meant now. And yea overall I actually completely agree with you. The idea of an aryan race or anything of the sort is just divisive to humanity as a whole, not to mention like you said, the mathematics behind it really just dont work. The whole reason we have genes and sexual reproduction is to create NEW genetic combinations, allowing a greater degree of adaptability to future hardships, not to maintain a so called superior race of very narrow traits. Eventually man will learn to appreciate diversity, rather than condemn it. Take care!

Take Care Aggie...

Still on Mike,

Further more, if only 20% of our genetic variance is between races, we look so different, have different bone structure, and there are innovative, athletic, and intelligent people of EVERY race....it should be safe to assume that those factors are NOT based on "race".

The 3 assumptions you just used are assumptions used to support a global system of white supremacy for over 500 years. In any company you would want the most innovative in charge, the most athletic the brutes, and the most purely intelligent as a buffer between the most crafty and the most physically able.

You have illustrated the system that has been set up, and continues until this day. It is absolutely disgusting that these stereotypes are justified in books like "the bell curve", etc...People will continue to marginalize asians and patronize blacks until those ideas are EXTERMINATED from human thought completely.

You have illustrated why I (i can admit it) have an inferiority complex because WHITE PEOPLE have told me i can run and shoot a basket, but not win a scholarship or go on an internship...

Seriously, i was at a scholarship award for the CS department when i was in college, and one of the administrators ASKED COULD I SET THE TABLES!!!

This is why blacks are twice as likely to be unemployed than whites, assumed to be morons and affirmative action hires...

This is why nonwhites are dominated, vandalized, and deceived EVERY DAY!!

Mike from Texas, it might do you some good to watch the PBS three hour documentary called "Race: The Power of an Illusion." you are operating under a definite ill/del-usion!

@Tek: Disregarding your massive inferiority complex and idiocy in seeing racism under everything, I think I'll stick to answering the one scientific comment you made.

"Further more, if only 20% of our genetic variance is between races, we look so different, have different bone structure, and there are innovative, athletic, and intelligent people of EVERY race....it should be safe to assume that those factors are NOT based on "race"."

If you were being honest, and I have to assume you aren't due to your obvious racial biases - you would know that even your most hardcore racist with a speck of honesty in him will admit that every race has its geniuses and its morons.

When you're making comparisons between two groups, you look at averages. There are incredibly dumb asians, and incredibly slow africans and very uncreative whites(I could go on and in more detail but I'll just stick to those three for consistency with my earlier post) - but these would be statistical outliers and not the norm. It's called the Bell CURVE for a reason.

By the way Tek, I'm a college graduate and I've been asked to set tables before too. Or do you think just because you're black you shouldn't have to do a "white man's job?" Does that sound stupid to you? I hope so, because that's exactly what you sound like to me.

@lol from Nebraska

I'll stick with facts and science rather than feel-good stupidity that's perpetuated solely in the west by whites who hate themselves and non-whites who see the opportunity for a power grab. I think Jared Taylor sums it up nicely -

ok so all of you people have no life for 1 lmao & 2 i cnt believe how many of u legit are talking crap about these people and there child like you guys have a right yea we all have the right 2 freedom of speech but u guys dnt have the right 2 be @!$%#s and rude maybe there was a mix up at the hospital maybe she did cheat or maybe some in each of there families @!$%#ed a white guy or women and it finual show because of genetics and they had a white baby k another thing tht Washington-2064515 is a ingnorent person who should drop dead =] anywayzs unless u have died and came back and actual can verdify this then bravo boo boo but other then that keep ur ingnorance to your self and another thing this couple right here all of u are bull@!$%#ing on love each other and there child ok and hello what man in any race see a baby that doesnt look there skin or anything hasnt alreadi gotten a dNa TEST so that shows the baby is theres or else they wouldnt have called the new report or any1 who actual did so yeah everyone go one with your lives and grow up n tht ngi mom or w.e her screen name is ..is right we all are the same skin color means nothing we all have the same organs but most of all we all have the same beat 2 our hearts n we have emotions n feelings so stop judge and hating on this family and get alive cause sweeties your familys are probably @!$%# ups and you guys want 2 express your feelins out on here but any who ones again no lives i swear lol oh and 4 another thing 2<washington> you need help and just cause mommy didnt love you or hold you doesnt mean anything and anotherrrr thing my ex boyfriend came out even whiter then his own mother and his father is very very dark and out of all his siblings they all came out looking dark and in his family children come out very fare skined because again it runs in your genes!!!!!!!! so yeah good bye =]

LMAO!!! That was a good comment. However this baby does look a lot like the mother in her face especially her nose and lips.

funny (& I didn't even get it the 1st time around lol)

You made me laugh.Thank you.

I suggest you go back to school. Medical profession? Unless you are a geneticist dont say never

Hilarious Sam! You be da man?

Hmm, let me rephrase that! - You're a funny guy!

I thought it went like this:

Mary: Uh, Joseph?

Joseph: Yes?

Mary: You know how we've never had sex?

Joseph: YES.

Mary: Well, uh, I'm pregnant.

Joseph: Jesus Christ!

Mary: Oh, you know about it, too?

wow this shows that adam and eve were blacks because it is only a black man who can easily change his or her colour. God is wonderful.

What the heck does any of this have to do with Fox News? People like you just don't get it. Fox News has intelligent commentators who are very well educated. Most of them are lawyers, whether you like lawyers or not is irrelevant. You probably watch Rachel Maddow, who made the stupid remark that the Acorn story was fabricated by Fox News. Really intelligent.....not. Some of you Fox bashers will never get it. There is a reason that Fox news has the highest ratings. An intelligent network appeals to intelligent viewers.
