Considering that humans and chimps are 98% similar, that is a remarkable amount of diversity.

The divesity of human races is on the close order of 0.1%. I didn't stay in a Holiday Inn Express or whatever--that's from an article posted here earlier today.

That's about what I've read in the past as well. Still though, that indicates that the total differences between humans are about 5% of the difference between humans and apes. If we were all the descendents of Noah that genetic diversity simply wouldn't exist.
