Well, well now we are getting somewhere.

Do you know where your gggggrandparents are buried? "Track down on paper" whose paper? "6" generations back, would it not be easier to have that body of Jacob/Israel.

You don't get it the children were scattered, punishment for disobedience, rememberance of whom they are removed.

My duty as a Christian is not to convince you of anything, that is between you and the Heavenly Father. My duty is to study the Word, and follow the best of my ability His commandments, and last but most certainly not least repent of my sins.

Your requirement of having the words of "European Caucasians" being specifically used to described anything is your own wall. The word caucasian does infact come from the travels of those that were taken captive by the King of Assyria.

More important than who is who, what was required of these children, it is not that they are so special, or else they would not have been scattered and their rememberance of who they are removed from them. Most of the story is yet to happen and it is out of man's hands, things that our Heavenly Father will take care of Himself.

So things are exactly as they are Written they would be, poor sottish children.

Where are you getting this nonsense?

The term Caucasian meaning the so-called white or European race originated with Johann Frederich Blumenbach (1752-1840), a German professor of natural history in Göttingen. He consider humanity as an just another aspect of nature. He surveyed and classified characteristics of human 'races', mapped their distribution, and invented comparative physiological anatomy. Based on skull measurements, he classified five races: American, Caucasian, Ethiopian, Malayan, and Mongolian.

The word "Caucasus" is from the Greek Kaukasos (Mt Caucasus), which gave the region its name.
