I think it would be better if you talked english in here so others can understand you.
Even though I understand I think other people would want to understand what you say too.

Sorry i was just excited to meet a fellow danish...

Hey GeEk do you know www.xboxlife.dk???

  • 05.04.2004 5:21 AM PDT

bah

Unless black people have blonde hair 500+ years from now, he's white. Not that it really matters anyway. Honestly, 550 years from now, with all of our advanced sunscreen and the entire world being as advanced as we are now and then some, the black skin color will most likely fade out of existance. So will all of the different looks with all of the ethnic blending due to increased ease of trasnprotation. Everyone will be a cross of black, white, and aisia. Really. There will be quite a few exceptions, of course, but big race differences will go away. That is if things keep going the way they are right now.

Of course we can do that GeEk.
i am always ready to play with my brothers and sisters of denmark.

As a child John had red hair. Ever seen an African American with natural red hair? Plus, many times in the Halo books it says that, because they are always in their armor, the Spartan's skin is a pale white. That would be impossible if you were black.

It has been clearly stated that the MC is white.
Also, this comment goes to rip saw.

what are you talking about?

It is complete nonsense... black people just fading out of existece? magically becoming white over the course of 500 years?

well first of all black people have been around for alot more than 500 years and their still black as they have ever been.

and secondly there are clearly black people in halo and halo 2.

what do you think sergeant johnson is?

What does it matter? We will be unlikely to see a De-helmed MC, so unless there are some covert -blam!-'s here, its all a little irrelevant.

Rip Saw: thats a nice theory... but it would require total inter-racial peace and harmony, and the human race tends to be a little lacking in the peace and harmony department, sadly.

  • 05.04.2004 9:48 AM PDT

bah

My theory does not require interracial peace and harmony, although that would certainly help a lot. The black skin pigmentation is merely a defensive measure against the sun's harmful rays. With current UV sunscreen trends, there will be no need for black skin. Maybe 550 years wouldn't be enough to get rid of it, maybe the total gloabalization of the world will happen later than I think. it probably woouldn't be totally gone anyways, just gone as far as Native Americans are now, which isn't that dark. But, eventually, there will be no more pigmentation at all. We will have no need for it.

This actually can swing both ways. In the next 550 years, the magnetic poles could easily reverse (we're long overdue, and the warning signs are here). There will be a long period when there is little or no magnetic field in some areas. This means that many more charged particles will make it through the atmosphere. Having pigmented skin could end up being a super advantage for a couple hundred years. If that was the case, everyone could end up being brown or black. It all depends on how fast natural selection can work.

I agree entirely with your theory and how it would work... but have to point out the fact that in Halo, it is very easy to notice the different ethnic origins of Sarge and the rest of the marines....

Dude you are saying that every single black white and asian person will have sex with each other and make these blended babies...meaning pigmentation in skin has nothing to do with sunscreen availability....races will not fade away
