Adam and Eve?


Krush2k2

Recommended Posts

Just some question I have about Adam and Eve and Evolution. I'm interested in your answers.

If Evolution is correct, then wouldn't that make Adam and Eve not literal?
Wouldnt that cause for more than just one man and one woman at that one time?

And if that makes Adam and Eve not literal then whats the basis for Original Sin?

Also if Adam and Eve is literal, how do you explain the fact that groups of early humans had no langauge at first but that it slowly developed being spoken after a long period of time. Yet Adam and Eve as we know spoke language-then what happened during that gap of humans not being able to develop lingusitics? Why would thier even be a gap if Adam and Eve spoke language as the first humans?

GOD BLESS!

all we know for sure is that there was no written language.
you ought to read G.K. Chesterton's The Everlasting Man and start being a bit more skeptical of scientists conclusions when they aren't backed up by fact.

adam and eve existed, and from that one set of parents everyone descended. scientific evidence shows this to be most likely. look up the mitochondrial eve.

do monkies have artwork? even just primitive artwork? then why did primitive man? and why do we not see monkey's developing artwork? we simply did not descend from monkies, we've always been a very distinct species very far removed from apes.

evolution as in adaptation is scietific and correct, that we adapt to our environment is an observable fact.

How does anyone know that there was a period when humans did not have language? Was anyone there to record this?

The human brain is "wired" for language.

Don't confuse theory and fact.

"God created the world" is a fact, how exactly he did it and when are a bit fuzzy. The story in Genesis teaches us all the basic facts in the framework of a seven day week.
Did he do it in seven days, or did it take billions of years, and does it matter?

God created everything out of nothing and it was good.
God created a pair of people with souls, they sinned, and we needed redeemed.

These are the important facts.

Science never contradicts Truth. I heard a theory out there that Adam and Eve did evolve from primates, but it was the soul, the breath of God within them, that made them human and set them apart.

Not my personal thoughts on the issue, just putting it out there.

Is it possible that there was a group of early 'humans', but only Adam and Eve were given souls and we are all descended from just those two of the early group?
