i think, i mean if you think about it, Adam and Eve were the forst humans, and if they had babys, the there babys had babies, and so on, so you would think, but im not positive.

Adam was not born from a woman. He was created by God.  Jesus was born a man thru holy spirit.

dunno...\nbut it started with adam and eve...\nbecause of the "man and wife" thing...

Anyone who believes Adam and Eve were the only two people on the earth, has not read their Bible very carefully. There was a civilization in the land of "Nod". That is where Cain went to find his wife and build his own city. Adam and Eve were the progenitors of the Hebrew race

ive been asking myself this for some time now, and incest is the most likely answer, unless the whole christian thing is a joke that went too far or something.. i am a christian but i do have doubt about the religion, i find the fact there is an all knowing supernatural being in heaven and he made the universe and earth and life. But if there was only two people around then the're must have been incest or some sort of deformity or mutation to get anywhere.

Adam and Eve were obsolutly not the first people on the earth!\n\n Any Bible scholar with half a brain would be able to decipher that GODS WORD ( bible ) alone makes that claim!\n\nAnyone who makes the claim that all people come from Adam and Eve are simply dispelling Judaisms greatest hoax upon the body of Christ!\n\nIt is true that God stated that HE made Adam and Eve in His "own likeness" and  That He created them "for His own purpose." Remember that as we go along!\n\nWe all know the story of Adam and Eve and the alleged apple incident . Which ,, BTW is nothing more than a Judaeo incert into our bibles. There is no such thing as an apple leading any of GODS people astray. In the garden we see that GOD upon calling Adam and Eve HE noticed that they were aware of their nakedness. God asked them  how they knew and Adam right away blamed it on Eve . Eve in turn stated that the "SERPENT HAD BEGUILD ME." The word " beguiled" means to SEDUCE and the intention here is meant to be seduced sexually.\n\nWas ADAM really blaming EVE? Obsulutely not! the fact that Eve first had sex with the serpent ( satan) was the great sin. Upon knowing of this great thing called sex Eve then consumated with ADAM and ADAM hade thought that he had sinned.\n\n     Not so, for GOD after creating Adam and Eve had told them they may partake of any fruit in the garden ( which there were only ADAM and Eve) but they are not to partake of the evil fruit of knowledge . God refers to all things as Fruit, Be fruitfull and multiply, thy fruit of thy womb, thy fruit of thy loins ect, ect. The evil fruit whom had all knowledge was in fact Satan and it was satan that had "beguild" or suduced Eve. Then eve seduced Adam which was a perfect suduction as planned by God. It is scientifically proven that a woman can have sex with one man and hours or days later have sex with another man and become pregnant with twins by two diferent biological fathers.\n\nIn this case one father was Adam and the other father was Satan or later known as the CANNITES.\n\nWAIT ! IT GETS BETTER AND THEN YOUR EYES WILL BE OPENNED!\n\nWhen cain slew ABLE God called to CAIN. CAIN WERE IS THEY BROTHER? Cain answered " Am I my brothers keeper? God reasoned and said "YOUR BROTHERS BLOOd HAS CRIED OUT TO ME" meaing that blood has a voice that only GOD can hear!\n\nFor this abomination God told Cain that He will CURSE AND DRIVE him out of the garden for killing the son of man. God knew good and well that CAIN and thusly the CANNITES were not of the son of man.\n\n\nIn the fourth chapter of GENISIS Cain makes this statement to GOD: \n   " I shall be a vagabond on the earth: IT SHALL COME TO PASS, THAT EVERY ONE THAT FINDETH ME SHALL SLAY ME."\n\nIf only Adam and Eve existed ,then  WHO was Cain afraid of that would kill him? Who was it that he would be a fugitive from? It is quite clear that the "everyone ' that Cain was refering to could not be Adam and Eve. Who was Cain refering to?\n\nCain was well aware ( more than some bible readers who could not see this truth) that many people existed in the lands around them. This fact is VERIFIED BY GOD in HIS response to Cain in verse 15:\n\nGod told Cain that " WHOSOEVER OF THE "OTHER" PEOPLE THAT MIGHT SLAY YOU, VENGENEANCE SHALL BE ON THAT PERSON."\n\nWhy did God give Cain and identifying "MARK" if Adam and EVE were the only people who knew him very well and were the only "other " alleged people alive? Why would they need a "mark " to identify Their son Cain?\n\nIf Adam and Eve were the FIRST and ONlY PEOPLE at this time, then from were did Cain find a wife? Not only was he able to find a wife , but there were obviously enough people to be part of the city built by Cain after his expulsion from the garden. Cains marriage, the birth of his son Seth, all these circumstances thus point to the existance of men independent of Adam

Good question! \n\nFirst of all, they didn't have any children until they were expelled from the Garden.\n\nIt would SEEM that the brothers and sisters would have to marry each other (ick), since the Bible says this is the only family on Earth.\n\nOf course, when Cain murdered Abel, the Bible also says that he went off to live with people in the land of Nod . . . so where did those people come from?!?!\n\nWhat?  The Bible internally inconsistent?!?!?  Shocking!!!

Adam and Eve were the FIRST people... that did not mean that God could not have created more the same way. Its just a thought:)

Yes!  Awsome, isn't it?\n\nBut you know, Eve was created in God's image, too.  See Genesis 1:26-27.  The difference is, God made Adam from the earth and Eve from a pre-existing created source.\n\nIn an interesting reversal of Eve's creation, Jesus' human body was created from a pre-existing created source (Mary) and the Holy Spirit.  This is one of many reasons why He would later be referred to as the "Second Adam."\n\nAlthough we were created from two pre-existing sources (our parents), when we are Born Again, that "old man" dies and we are born anew.  Then, when we are called up to God's presence (by the Rapture or after death), we are perfected and created anew.\n\nMy view of the sequence is:\n\nGod>>Adam\nGod + Adam>>Eve\nHoly Spirit + Eve>>Jesus (the Second Adam)\nMom + Dad>>You\nHoly Spirit + You>>Born Again You\nGod + Born Again You>>Perfected You

Eve was created from the rib of Adam. Same genetic material. So, in terms of genetics Adam and Eve were brother and sister. The tale I've heard repeated most often for the different races and blood types was the story of the Tower of Babylon and how when God punished man for trying to build the Tower to heaven God banished mankind to the 4 corners of the world and when he did this he cursed them not to speak the same language. Part of this tale was that God altered their appearance so they'd appear as strangers to each other. When he did this we ended up with the different races and that lead to the differing blood types as well.

Adam and Eve were the first people God created to be holy and to have fellowship with Him. Whether they were the first people or not I don't know. I wasn't there.

Well you see, as yet, no one has ever been able to find any real historical proof of the existance of this couple.  Sure, there have been all kinds of interpretations of various discoveries, that this or that "must mean" something else.\n\nBut this is a great question, as it simply points out a fact:  Genetically, how did one couple spawn so many different races?\n\nThere was an earlier question on this subject, where it was pointed out that even in the bible there are references to the existance of others, outside Eden, with whom those cast out must have mated.\n\nAt any rate, there must be other factors involved.\n\nThis being the case, then Adam and Eve can be supposed to have whatever genetic and racial characteristics you want to assign.  Who could proove otherwise?

The fall of Adam and Eve was from disobeying God.\n\nIt wasnt about what they did, because there was only one thing that they could not do, and that was touch or eat from the tree of the Knowledge of good and evil.\n\nAdam possessed much knowledge, ( he named all the animals)\n\nThere were only two humans on the earth at the time of the fall and God had already told them to go forth and be fruitful and multiply, so Sex could have never been an issue, as it was not forbidden.

Yes, certainly.  We all have the same ancestors: Adam and Eve.

God created Adam and Eve so he was their father (and ours) so it must have been: Adam God and Eve God.
