Get the 1-year Bible Reading Plan today and start searching the Scriptures. I assure you that this time next year, you will pray to God for forgiveness, for ever asking this kind of question.

No! Why? Because if Adam was d first man we would have the same DNA,ur genealogy is trace only by DNA and its unique to each family tree line even if it is 10,000 old.
We can't have this same DNA due to mutation, gene pool and genetic drift for man survival/ adaptation to environment and world at large
e.g during the ebola period, some pple survive it based on their strong immune system.

I think you have me mistaken for someone else, i was not the one arguing with you, my first reply to you was that sarcastic post.

So continue your argument with the person you initially were arguing with, i ain't arguing with you dear

So ur tryna tell me Adam populated d earth, if yes then y we all different n remember Eve was his only woman?.

Sometimes we let religion and the bible deceive us, well am no longer in that category.

I now believe in facts and what I see. So you can quote the bible all you want I still aint coming around anytime soon.

Hypocrite!

1st u are a xtian dat is a little confussed about a particular narrative in d bible n needs someone 2 help wt beta explanation;

Op, we need more explanation on this theory you believed.

1 Pls, your apelike ancentor you are talking about how did they come to being?

2 Who is the first apelike ancentor?

3 How many were they?

4Why are we not have thesame DNA if ape is our ancentor?

5When they evolved, did they split to man and woman? Or How come we have men and women?

6 Why is it that ape no longer evolve as you said they did in the past?

Lol please people lets not be too quick to always label people hypocrites. . One thing i understand here in nairaland is that people always use these two words easily (ignorant and hypocrites) its quite funny in some cases.

Anyway the Op only had a conflict of belief and doctrine against reality, reasoning and independent study.
Am sure you too will have these same conflict if you decide to think outside the box of what your religion indoctrinated you with.

I see nothing wrong in identifying myth as myth, you may not know the origin of things but that doesn't mean you should accept absurd explanations. . . Sometimes it is better to just say "I don't know"

Only through study can factual truths be ascertained not unquestionable ancient mythical beliefs.

A mature (over 40) lady gets pulled over for speeding...
Older Woman: Is there a problem, Officer? Officer : Ma'am, you were speeding.
Older Woman: Oh, I see.
Officer : Can I see your license please?
Older Woman: I'd give it to you but I don't have one.
Officer : Don't have one?
Older Woman: Lost it, 4 years ago for drunk driving.
Officer : I see...Can I see your vehicle registration papers please.
Older Woman: I can't do that.
Officer : Why not?
Older Woman: I stole this car.
Officer : Stole it?
Older Woman: Yes, and I killed and hacked up the owner.
Officer : You what?
Older Woman: His body parts are in plastic bags in the trunk if you want to see.

The Officer looks at the woman and slowly backs away to his car and calls for back up. Within minutes 5 police cars circle the car. A senior officer slowly approaches the car, clasping his half drawn gun.

Officer 2: Ma'am, could you step out of your vehicle please!

The woman steps out of her vehicle.

Older woman: Is there a problem sir?
Officer2: One of my officers told me that you have stolen this car and murdered the owner.
Older Woman: Murdered the owner?
Officer2: Yes, could you please open the trunk of your car, please.
The woman opens the trunk, revealing nothing but an empty trunk.
Officer2: Is this your car, ma'am?
Older Woman: Yes, here are the registration papers.
The officer is quite stunned.
Officer2: One of my officers claims that you do not have a driving license.
The woman digs into her handbag and pulls out a clutch purse and hands it to the officer. The officer examines the license. He looks quite puzzled.
Officer2 : Thank you ma'am, one of my officers told me you didn't have a license, that you stole this car, and that you murdered and hacked up the owner.

Older Woman: Bet the liar told you I was speeding, too.

This what happens when u start doubting about God's existence and perhaps religion also there are many side to it religion, philosophy ,science. The deeper u try to find answers to things like this the more u get confused there is a Logically conclusion there is a supernatural being and he create Adam as the first Man.

Every man's dna is unique to himself. Scientists have. Discovered we may be related to a single man.

The entire presidents of america for example are related to an English king of. The 6th century. Including obama.

This is logically correct!! Thumbs up.

And also if Adam was the first and only man with Eve, then it means Adams sons married Adams daughters and this is supposed to be a sin grin

pls tell me where in the bible?

Gen 1:27-28
So God created mankind in his own image,
in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them.
28 God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”


It is clear here that God created men and women(plural, many) and gave them authority over all creatures and told them to be fruitful and multiply, etc.

And on the seventh day God rested.
Time passed.



Then in Gen 2. God creates a special man called Adam and puts him in charge of the Garden of Eden.


Gen 2:7-8

7 Then the Lord God formed a man[c] from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.

8 Now the Lord God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed.
