Adam and Eve?

Question

If Adam and Eve are supposedly the origin of all mankind then why are they not mentioned in every religion?

Maybe better stated as.

If genesis is the story of Gods creation of the world why does the story of creation differ so much between religions?

Answer 1

Excellent question.
The answer is quite simple. Adam and Eve are a fairy tale.

Answer 2

"It is known that nearly every culture in the world has stories or legends from which one could almost write the Book of Genesis. Most cultures have a story about a worldwide flood similar to Noah’s Flood. Creation legends—not dissimilar to the account in Genesis regarding the creation of woman, the entrance of death, and the original man and animals being vegetarian (Gen. 1:29, 30)—abound in cultures around the world. This is powerful evidence that these stories have been handed down generation after generation. The true accounts are in the Bible, but the similarities in cultures around the world are not what you would expect from the viewpoint of an evolutionary belief system.

I recall being taught that the reason the Babylonians (and others) had stories similar to Genesis was because the Jews had borrowed myths of Babylonian origin to include with their writings. However, when this idea is closely investigated, we find that the Babylonian stories are rather grotesque and quite unbelievable in almost every aspect. For instance, Babylonian stories concerning the flood have gods cutting each other in half and water spewing out. When you read the biblical account of the flood, it is certainly the more reasonable. When one thinks about it, stories handed down generation after generation that are not carefully preserved—particularly if they are handed down by word of mouth—do not improve with age. The truth is lost and the stories degenerate markedly. The biblical records have been handed down in written form, carefully preserved by the superintendency of God and have not been corrupted. The Babylonian stories, which only reflect the true record of the Bible, are the ones that have become corrupted, due to the limitations of human fallibility."

Answer 3

Did someone tell you that they were or do you know this to be fact? It does not say this anywhere in the Word of God so I'd say someone told you that.

If you read the Book of the Beginning, Genesis, then you would know the truth and the Truth will set you free.

On the 6th day God created men and women. All the Races that occupy the Earth today. He made them Hunters and Fishers and told them to repopulate the Earth.

God rested on the 7th day and then on the 8th day God makes eth ha aadam. The Man. Then God takes the curve from this Man and makes the Woman. The curve is his DNA.

There is so much Wisdom in the Word of God and its all free for them that choose it.><>

Answer 4

Why would they have to be? Many religions have bits and pieces of things that are biblical, none have everything or they would not be a different religion. That is the point of them being different. I am a little uninformed on this one, what do the other religions say about creation and the first people?

Answer 5

Perhaps they forgot their roots. If you are living on the opposite side of the world from where the Garden of Eden was, thousands of years after Adam and Eve lived, and you decide to start a religion, does it make sense that you would mention Adam and Eve in your religion's "holy book"?

Answer 6

If the first 2 human beings were both male, it would make the bible even more beneficial absurd. God did not write the bible, adult males wrote the bible, and it become all politically maximum ideal for the day. With Adam and Eve we are all a gaggle or inbreds because it truly is, yet with Adam and Steve, umm yeah, until eventually Steve had a womb, which negates the gay rights activists factor.

Answer 7

According to islamic teaching there are only 3 religions given by Allah the only one God i.e Jew,Christian and Islam.The other religions such as Hindhu,Buddha and any other religion are included in culture because they are made by human.The 3 God's religions have been given 3 holy books i.e Zabur through David/Dawud prophet,Torach/Taurat through Moses/Musa prophet ,Injil/Bibel through Jesus/Isa Almasih prophet which all the 3 dedicated to Jews and Al Qur'an through the last prophet Muhammad pbuh for all humans in this world.Adam and Eve are the origin of all mankind so they are mentioned in the 3 religions i.e Jew,Christian and Islam.

Answer 8

Because, my friend, there is also a Devil, an opposer of God, whose primary objective is to confuse as many people as possible about the true identity of God and what he has taught in his Word. So, throughout the centuries he--Satan--has come up with all these mishmash of ideas that do exactly that--confuse, mislead. He even has immitation Christian beliefs. (2 Corinthians 11:13-15)

Answer 9

That's one of the reasons God used the Jews as His oracles(record keepers).They were the most precise in this endevor.The baylonians and others had a twisted record of this .See clay pictographs in Haleys Bible handbook.

Answer 10

Because the other "religions" are wrong. The Bible is always right and has withstood the test of time.
