How can we possibly be held up to the first man and the first woman when we don't even know for sure if they were white or black or Asian or Middle Eastern or Indian or a race that has died out or that the story of Adam and Eve is completely metaphoric and never happened exactly as the Bible suggests but instead was just written as a model of creation?
And further more, given that we have people born hermaphrodite, blind, deaf, unable to walk from birth, with genetic abnormalities, with rare diseases that are either hereditary or are flukes, Siamese twins, and so many other possibilities, how can we use Adam and Eve to justify anything against anyone?Is not the model of Adam and Eve just aiming a little to high for anyone to live by when there is so many wonderful differences in the world that are differences that start at birth?
