Who came first...Prehistoric Man or Jesus?

Question

Did Cro-Magnon Man appear before Jesus? If he did, does that mean Adam and Eve were not the first Homo-Sapiens to appear on Earth? This link shows a skull believed to be 40,000 yrs. old

The bible claims Adam and Eve came into being first.

Who came first?

Answer 1

Let's be honest the "fable" of Adam and Eve was made up by people who couldn't even understand the concept of evolution, so they had no way to explain their orgins, so they did the best they could, also you know I had this thought a long time ago, maybe Adam and Eve really represent the first "people" who had a conscious of self, that which separates us from animal, or whatever, the rest of their "species" was "dumb" and not self aware. Which makes sense, you can say that God made them aware thus "creating" them as the FIRST man and woman. This would also explain how two people could possibly populate the entire earth without major genetic flaws (you know if a brother and a sister mate their child is VERY likely to have genetic flaws and more likely to have things likd downs, or so I hear), anyway, Adam and Eve could have had children, who mated with the others of their species that were not aware, but when either they chose the "other" to be their mate their mate could have been made aware, or maybe not, but their child would have been, I don't know, you know things like that happened THOUSANDS of years ago, and so we'll never know the complete truth, but I do not believe that evolution completely contradicts Christianity, I think you can believe in both. You just have to pick and choose how to take what's written in the bible, and you have to pick and choose what you believe about what's published out there... because just because it's published doesn't make it true, even within a field such as palentology experts can and will disagree about findings and what they are and what they mean.

Answer 2

The bible lay claim that all the universe was created about 5000 years ago. That all things were created at in 7 days and there was no history before 5000 years ago. It also claims that the earth was the center of all things including the sun and planets which supposely evolved around the earth (sun,other planets, stars ec.) this has been of course proven to be worng as all things in the bible will fail.




Supposely Jesus came about 2006 years ago as of now, and the prehistoric men/women came many thousands of years earlier. They were the first true humans evolved from ape like creatures which led to you and I. Jesus was born under roman rule, and was actually owned by the romans as all citizens not roman or freed from roman slavery which was as I said thousands of years before Jesus's time.

Answer 3

Pre-historic man came first. So either Adam and Eve were the first cave people, or the Bible(not always meant to be taken literally) is designating Adam and Eve to be the first in the line of humans to realize a supreme being created them.

Answer 4

The Bible reveals Jesus as God in the flesh, but Jesus took on the flesh when He was conceived of the virgin Mary. So, to answer your question: Yes, Jesus existed as God prior to His creating Adam and Eve, but no, Jesus didn't become a homo sapien for thousands of years until He was concieved. Think of His becoming human as putting on the form of a man.

Answer 5

Even Genesis indicates that other people existed before Adam and Eve. And that's a myth dating to about 700 BC.

Humans existed long before 4004 BC (the supposed date of Creation), and proto-humans long before that. Eventually they evolved a large neo-cortex, the ability to imagine abstract stories, and a language in which to tell such tales; this led to the emergence of cultures that told tales and used them as an excuse to start wars. The rest, quite literally, is history.

Answer 6

Jesus wasn't black, he changed into Jewish. even as he comes again i do not imagine His ethnicity is going to truly be on all of us's recommendations. Your question does communicate about that our church homes must be a lot less segregated and we extra proper commence operating with all races, skins, and nationalities with a purpose to get a extra proper flavor of what Jesus needs heaven to be.

Answer 7

being open minded and being able to go beyond the indoctrination you have received from your "church", usually to benefit themselves, is the sign of a thinking human. adam and eve are a metaphor. humans have been on the planet for hundreds of thousand of years, in one form or another. jesus is 2000 years ago. can you dig it?

Answer 8

Jesus is God.When he appeared in the flesh to teach us how to love him was only 2006 years ago.But Jesus,God has been here since the beginning of time.Alpha and Omega.

Answer 9

God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit were here before it all. They don't know how old that skull is. Looks distinctly human as today.

Answer 10

Prehistoric man obviously.
