Question for everyone about Adam and Eve?

Question

Is the reason that you clicked on this question that the charachters in the Adam and Eve story or so polorized right now that they touch on the debate of creation vs evolution, and the gay marriage debate?

Do you have your own personal Adam and Eve story? Share it.

Answer 1

Naw. I clicked on it because my buddy Jim Darwin asked it.

But sure I have a twist on the Adam and Eve story. I don't think it was originally a creation myth at all. I think it was originally a symbolic story about the growth from childhood to adulthood and how the knowledge gained can be a double edged sword.

Answer 2

They used to say that Adam and Eve where the first people to come on earth, but as time goes by I am realising that wasent completely true..Can u tell me why are the different races of people come from and how life continue when they had two boy kids?
In my opinion the correct definition i think is that Adam and Eve where the first King and Queen on Earth.

Answer 3

Adam and Eve have been a hot topic this morning. Someone was talking about how the story was an example of how men blame everything on women.

Answer 4

Darwin,
You have been lied to about a lot of things.
God created man and woman and told them to be fruitful and multiply (bear children). That is why males have one set of reproductive organs and woman another.
If he had created Adam and Steve they would have been the only two people in the world because as soon as they died their would be no one else because Adam and Steve could not have been fruitful and multiplied.
God created all things. The only thing man created was the idea that things evolved. Everything man has made not created out of what God created.
I will pray that you will know the truth.

Answer 5

I opened the link to this question because the Adam and Eve story is a rather horrible story and I was interested in what kind of question you were posing about it.

I find it hilarious and a little scary that some intelligent adults actually believe this story to be a truthful explanation of how man and woman were first created.

Answer 6

genesis chapter 1 verse begenning verse 26 ... lets us create man like our looks and they will have power over all creatures in the waters and all other animals on earth then a man and a woman was created and they told them uyou will multiple and stay on earth god then god created a man from the dust and give him breath so that the man became a living soul and told the man that he is not forbidden to eat anything that was planted in the garden of eden. however he is prohibited to eat the tree of knowledge for if he eat it he will surely die. then god decided to creat a woman so that the man have his companion god called his creatures as adam the first man while eve is the first woman. dam and eve were driven out of the paradise when eve tempted to let adam eaat the forbidden fruit

Answer 7

I clicked because Adam and Eve was the topic of the sermon at the one wedding I was a groomsman in. It was over two years ago, and yet the entire 72 hours around that wedding was one of the most wild that I've ever experienced.

A big hello to Jed if he's reading this... yes, Jed, it really was that insane!

Answer 8

When God created Adam, He created a Man of His own image and made him to share with Him all His Glory united with him by the Holy Spirit. Man and God were making a oneness with each other and God and Man were enjoying this unity with each other. The Bible tells us that God's delight is with Man, as spoken by King David. But there seems to be something wrong after this. God brought all the Animals to Adam and after Adam named them, thus were they called. Then God looked at Adam and found him lonely. This is strange. I read the Bible so many times, but when I come to this passage, I start wondering; what is missing here? What does Adam wants better than the wonderful glory and unity He had with God. It seems to me that God noticed that Adam is not satisfied with this interrelation ship He has with Adam. There is something here mysterious. I don't think any body knows. Immediately thereafter God put Adam to sleep and then He took one of his ribs, and created Eve to be a helper for him(Adam). Now God did not tell Eve not to eat from the tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, He told only Adam. Adam was the one who told Eve not to eat from the tree. The created woman was the cause of all the trouble man has gone under, all the misery of the world came to mankind because of Eve. I think gays would enjoy reading this information. You asked me my opinion of the story of Adam and Eve and here I am writing it down for you. When Eve ate under the seduction of Satan, Eve gave Adam from the fruit and at this instant Adam before he ate from the fruit, he had a choice: Either he refuse to eat and leave Eve die alone and he would obey God and still enjoy his oneness with him, or he would eat from the fruit and deny God this delight He has with Adam and therefore Adam would have that delight with Eve. So The Choice Adam has was either he reject Eve, or Reject God. Adam of course rejected God and ate from the fruit and the riddle of Man started thereafter since then.

Answer 9

I just think Adam and Eve are the archetypal story of between the polarities of ignorance is bliss and knowledge makes one aware.

Answer 10

Public service announcement to the fundie xians: If you believe the story of Adam and Eve literally, then you have to accept that Eve was a transexual. Yes, I said transexual, because she started out as 100% male rib, and then was changed to be female. So boo ya!
