The name Adam, which might mean "earthy" or "ruddy," is the general term used in the ancient Hebrew scriptures for humanity in general.
The fact that Adam might mean "ruddy" has given rise to the belief among some, especially members of the Christian Identity movement, that Adam was originally white because the name of "ruddy" is supposed to signify that he was capable of being seen to blush.Thus, it is argued, God's originally created humans were white and all other races must be inferior. This is also combined with the story of Cain and Abel, arguing that the "mark of Cain" means that Cain was black.
Adam isn't the father of Cain
Cain's father is Satan

They were made out of clay animated by the power of God. They lived around the garden naked and exposed to the sun and half-naked after being exposed to sin of disobedience.
Wondering around with no clothing and shelter, they must be brown or blackened. But they must be handsome and beautiful like the Iraqis and Iranians, Arabs, Turks and Jews, Greeks, Spartans, Russians, Americans, Europeans, and Asians who are their descendants.

Well... Jesus was darker, as were all of the "characters" in the bible. It's the middle east, so - I'd assume that the people who wrote the bible meant that Adam and Eve were tan like them.

I do not know but the fact that Adam is recorded to have lived over 900 years astounds me! Nothing in my human wired imagination enables me to imagine that or get in touch with what that was like! What were family reunions like - ten generations,etc. ? what did you do to pass the time ? did you think you were never going to die ? etc. this raises many many questions for which I do not have the answers.

i heard from a Muslim teacher that Adam was white and Eve was black... and he fell madly in love with her the moment he set eyes on her.

being naked in a garden i'm sure they darkened eventually.
but i've heard some believe that since they were the first people on earth to break the law, they must have been black.

They represent all the races in this world, what important is that they started the human race.
