Well, there have been a lot more than 400 years since the flood, so why couldn’t the changes have been due to environmental selection? We see the same types of changes in groups that migrated to new environments more recently than other groups, such as the melanesians and aborigines. For a long time, people assumed they had to have descended from sub-Sarahan Africans to have such “negroid” features, but the genetics show that is not the case. The features developed independently and were not passed down from their ancestral group.

We have accurate drawings and statues of different peoples. In 400 years here in America with our temperate climate, the peoples from tropical areas have not changed. 2350BC plus 400 years is 1950BC, getting into the time of Jacob Israel, and so there is no way the varieties of peoples on the earth evolved in that short of period of time. God has had to have saved them from before Noah somehow.

“In 400 years here in America with our temperate climate, the peoples from tropical areas have not changed.”

You are comparing apples to oranges. Those people in America are not starting from a pre-flood genome and then adapting, so the starting point is different, and the changes that would need to occur in the genome are also different. We also have plenty of interbreeding in America to muddy the waters, so I doubt any such subtle changes over time would be easily distinguishable from the effects of interbreeding on the population.

“God has had to have saved them from before Noah somehow.”

I think God would know if He did, but instead, God told us He only saved eight souls. I’m sorry, but I’m going to have to believe God over you in this matter.
