Everyone knows that Odin and his brothers created the world from the sea and then created Ask and
Embla the first two humans. |

Adam and Eve, Eve came from Adams flesh, and then later in the bible people appear, a classic case
of incest. |

Thank you, someone who knows what they're talking about. Adam and Eve didn't exist because that
would go against the theory of evolution which is a hell of a lot more believable then that bullshit |

Don't believe it i don't like how people say that they were the first human beings to step in to
this world cuz that's not true because then how would "Jesus" make humans if there already had been
humans before his time this is too confusing that's why i quit believing somethings in this world
are meant not to be known |

I don't believe that people are so naive. The story of adam and eve is simply a tale for young
children in a Religious Studies class. Are people really saying that all of the work done by
scientists such as Darwin, about evolution are all to be thrown aside because of a fictitious story
in the bible? If there really was a god, wouldn't he have already interveined and saved people from
famine and suffering? I understand that people turn to religion for comfort through difficult times,
but religion isn't everything. Praying to god hasn't stopped Global Warming has it? |

I don't believe that Adam and Eve existed, even though I do gravitate to Christianity. Adam and Eve
are two characters who appear in the Book of Genesis, but there are a number of signs that the story
told here was meant to be taken symbolically. For example, in Hebrew, "Adam" literally means "man,"
and as such it may not actually have been used as a proper name. Adam would appear, therefore, not
to have been a physical being, but rather a symbol of humanity in a much more general sense.
Many scholars point out that "Eve" may actually mean "living" or possibly "life," and as such, this
would not actually be a human's proper name, but rather a metaphorical expression. In fact, most of
the time Eve is not referred to by her name, but simply as "the woman." I would argue that the
author is simply trying to make broader points about humanity, but did not intend for readers to
take the story of Adam and Eve literally. |

To believe in god and to use him for solace, comfort and guidance in times of need (like my dear
Gran, a very intelligent woman) is one thing. Although I don't subscribe to his existence. But to
believe the story of Adam and Eve is utter madness and i find it unreal that anyone would believe it
in this day and age |

I totally agree. I think this story is becoming less accepted as time goes on and people come to
their senses. But I have heard what appear to be arguments that the first 2 "humanoids" would have
been Adam and Eve. These argument obviously are made by people who don't understand evolution, but
hey, at least they're getting close! |
