that is a question no one can answer cause the bible doesnt tell us that.

I am actually not sure whether the bible mentions the skin color of Adam or Eve at all. It only says that they were created in God's image, and that's that. \nI have read a rather interesting web site that attempts to answer questons about race, genetics etc from a christian, biblically based point of view, if you need more thorough answers, that would be a good place to start.

Have you not seen the reactions of fetuses in the womb? I have no doubt as to life beginning at conception anymore.\n\nLegally though, it is hard to say. I do not believe there is anything legally stating the actual "beginning" of life.

If Adam and eve did not exist... there would not have been any human beings! The first of the species of human beings the revered Adam and Eve were the first to surface on Mother Earth as human beings. Their direct ancestors being the ape family!\n\nNow Adam and Eve came onto this Earth. They had both to act as a family. Both were son and daughter of God. That made them brother and sister. How come they could have fathered children?\n\nIn the initial stages of development of human life... nothing existed which we could have called as society or community. It was a raw savage world. As per the theory of Charles Darwin, "it was the time for survival of the fittest". It was the time to do and die.\n\nWords like ethics and morality did not exist for even words did not exist during those times. The Lipi (written form of communication) was developed at a much later stage in time.\n\nEven a brother and sister relationship did not exist at that time. There were only two human beings who had surfaced on Mother Earth. They had to copulate and produce children. They did not do it intentionally. They never knew anything about it.\n\nIt was that it happened. They did it and something was born. At that moment of time they would have been extremely surprised not knowing what to do about it. Eventually they would have realized it was one of them.\n\nThey reared that child and with passage of time another child was born. This time it was a female child. As this small family progressed further... this male and female child copulated at the appropriate time. And the whole family started to grow.\n\nNow there were two families. With passage of time many more families came into existence. Until this point of time there was nothing like morality and ethics that played any role. For the sake of their survival and progeny these families kept on multiplying.\n\nThis was the only way to keep intruders at bay. They had to protect themselves from the wild beings roaming Mother Earth.\n\nEver since the Revelations of God came into existence... the human being who had invoked these words of God realized that the system had to be ordered at some stage. And some system of morality and ethics came into being.\n\nAs of today... the copulation by the children of Adam and Eve was a sin but at that time it was not a sin for the relationship of brother and sister never existed in those times.\n\nThe development of relationships in human life came at a very later the stage. It was only possible when the community would have developed into a massive strength. Population somewhere in thousands would have prompted the wise and the elders of those times to separate out into distinct families.\n\nWe need to understand that whatever is truth today may not hold tomorrow. In a scientific developing world the values whether they are ethical, moral or otherwise keep changing.\n\nWe also need to understand that during the times of Mahabharata... the battle was fought using swords, horses and elephants. But now the warfare consists of atomic bombs, missiles and chemical warfare. More here- http://www.godrealized.com/dharma_definition.html

God may have given us pain during childbirth, but medical science gave us Demerol.  \n\nPersonally, I don't believe the Adam and Eve stuff, but I do believe very strongly in the effects of a good epidural.\n\nEdited to say, I need some demerol or at least a few asprin after reading the all caps answer.  Sheesh, do you need to shout?

That is a great question that we will unfortunately never find the accurate answer to.\nAlthough, it only says in the Bible that Adam and Eve were the FIRST man and woman God created...I don't think it ever said they were the ONLY one's he created, if your looking for answers regarding the Bible.\nI'd also like to add that genetically, it's next to impossible to have a healthy child created in incest, especially as close as brother and sister. If those problems exist now, then reason says they would exist way back then as well. So, I think either God created more people, or Adam and Eve were the first "modern humans" along the evolution chain. I'm a bit undecided about it since I believe in God along with evolution...kind of weird, huh?

Well unfortunately the umbilical cord can't be severed.This is especially true for the mothers.Some ungrateful children see thier parents as a servants to accede to thier whims.Luckily most children grow up.Become regular citizens,and a credit to thier parents.Even better honor thier mums' and dads'

May be a plan, not sure. I actually believe Adam & Eve were God's first man/woman creation. They lived in Eden. Then God created more people in other areas outside of Eden. So, the Sons most likely found other women outside the Garden. But, that what I think, many other ideas on this.\nDang it Mainworry again. :-p Not seen you in a while; God Bless!

We have belly buttons because that is where the umbellica cord was.  Without that you wouldn't be here.

well methodical scientist have traced the location of Eden back to Egypt along with the very first case of homo-erectus (i know, it sounds gross doesn't it?) so if Adam and eve were in fact the first man and woman they were tan just as the Egyptians are.

No, Eve was not created with Adam.  There is the legend of Lilith, the first woman, she refused to do what Adam told her and she flew off to eventually marry Salathiel (an Angel gone bad) and they had some hellashish creature babies.  OOOOOO now the Christians are gonna jump me, they ought to check out how many of each kind of animal was on the ark, and who really killed Goliath, and were did the Sons of Anak come from if all the giants died in the flood.  Just a few inconsistencies in that great book.  But I believe in what is right, my own version, and if their versions every denomination can be "the way," then so can mine, but only for me!  Thanks man, this was fun.

They do exist, and aren't to rare, they are usually surgically altered these days. The technical answer to this question therefore is their mother's wombs. excellent answer grace.

Actually I think you're thinking on the right lines. I'm gonna do some reaserch and get back to you.\n\n\nDoctors 'find dead foetus in boy'\nDoctors in Bangladesh say they have removed a long-dead foetus from the abdomen of a teenage boy who was complaining of stomach pains.\n\nThey said the foetus would have become the boy's twin had it grown normally in their mother's womb.\n\nThey said it was a case of an extremely rare condition where two foetuses are conceived as conjoined twins but one absorbs the other.\n\nIn 2003 Kazakhstan doctors removed a foetus from a seven-year-old boy.\n\nLimbs developed\n\nSixteen-year-old Abu Raihan was admitted to the Bangabandhu Medical University hospital in the capital, Dhaka on Saturday.\n\n"After the operation we found a dead foetus weighing two kilograms (4.5lbs) in his abdomen," Doctor MA Mazid said, the AFP news agency reports.\n\n"Apart from the head, all other limbs of the baby were developed."\n\nThe condition is known as "foetus in foeto", or inclusion twin.\n\n"In this case the foetus of the baby entered into the foetus of the boy and continued to grow like a tumour in the boy's abdomen," gynaecology specialists Nurun Nahar said.\n\nHundreds of curious locals flocked to the hospital on hearing a rumour that a boy had given birth to a baby.\n\nIn April, 2003, doctors at Chimkent Children's Hospital in Kazakhstan discovered the dead foetus of a twin brother when operating on a seven-year-old boy.\n\nThe foetus had developed into a tumour but was found to have hair, nails and bones.

I don't make that assumption at all. I make the assumption that there is no heaven and when you die, you die. IF however HYPOTHETICALLY you ended up in heaven and were looking for Adam and Eve, there would be two ways to find them. The easiest way is to simply WANT to find them. All your hopes and wishes are supposedly provided in hypothetical heaven.\n\nThe more difficult way would be to look for two people without belly buttons. But that would take a looooooooong time, considering how many people you'd have to walk up to and ask to lift up their robes so you could peek.

You got me going over this, so I've been all over the world looking for an answer\n\nWhat is behind my belly button?\n\nAccording to the punch line of an old joke: "If you unscrew your belly button, your bottom falls off." In reality, the umbilical vein comes from the afterbirth or placenta, which carries blood enriched with oxygen and nutrients to the developing baby.\n\nThe umbilical vein runs from the navel to the fetal liver and through a bypass vessel (the ducted venosus) to the fetal heart. After birth, the umbilical vein remains open for a time, but soon afterwards it closes and shrivels up to become a fibrous cord. It crosses the abdominal cavity in a fold of the abdominal wall lining forming the round ligament (the ligamentum teres). Sometimes things don't close as they should and an umbilical hernia develops.\n\nmeaning\n\nOur belly button does not heal over because there is nothing between it and our stomach except a few thin layers of skin

I think that Adam and Eve represent a new beginning in Human-kind.  This next part is kinda nuts but i think it happened.  I think that Aliens landed around or in the city of Babylon, which is the place thought to be where the garden of Eden was located.  Anyways the aliens mated with the more ape like homo-sapiens of that time.  Adam and Eve where the children of this relationship.  Maybe this is the reason for the "Missing Link" in the evolution of man. Just a theory, i usually don't bring up because Christians get really upset about that idea.

That's wrong. According to the Bible, in Genesis chapter 2, Adam "became" a soul when he was created. He wasn't GIVEN one. Abortion is clearly murder, whether people try all sorts of ways to justify it (which they can't).
