Adam and Eve?
Come on now, for goodness sake, surely no one actually believes that to be literal? There are many Christians(ones that are clearly capable of reason) I have spoken to have even admitted that they believe it was metaphorical.
How can every race and colour in the world have evolved from the same 2 people (bearing in mind the bible depicts Adam and Eve as Caucasian). Please explain that to me. How is that possible?
Now you can't say evolution to explain any of the differences because you have already said you don't believe in that. Besides, if the Earth is only 15,000 years old as believed by the Christians then this would not be enough time to evolve so drastically anyway.
How do you explain the vast differences between Neanderthal man and ourselves if you don't believe in evolution? The difference in skull size and shape? The obvious difference in general bone structure, appearance and posture?
What about Cro-magnon man and his differences from both Neanderthals and ourselves?
What about Aborigines, Native Indians, Chinese, Japanese, Eskimos, Africans, Egyptians, Arabs? Why are they all so different in terms of size and appearance if evolution doesn't exist and we all evolved from the same 2 white people?
