God created Adam and Eve instantaneously. He literally told them not to eat from the tree of knowledge of good & evil and of life. If he didn't literally tell them, how could they know not to do it? So, we agree that God literally spoke to the VERY FIRST people on Earth, Adam and Eve. Why is it then, that your version of God is not the FIRST version of God ever worshiped?

Also, It would be more believable if two very different cultures on opposite ends of the Earth who never communicated with each other worshipped the same version of God, but this never happened. Why? When God came back to be remembered (after all these other "false" religions have already been formed) why was your version of God only worshipped in one general area? Why not on all parts of the world? Why did He only pay attention to one part of the world?

Monte54q, this is a question to Creationists who take the words literally, not to all Christians.

Easy:
The Bible says how the human race abandoned God
and began to worship the creation instead of the
creator. I have great respect, however, for cultures
that have kept traditions very long, especially asian
cultures, they have retained more bits of truths than
others have!

Scriptures:

Genesis 6:12 (Amplified Bible)
And God looked upon the world and saw how degenerate, debased, and vicious it was, for all humanity had corrupted their way upon the earth and lost their true direction.

Romans 1:25
25They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.

The Israelites that came out of Egypt were God's chosen people to obey Him and show the world who He is, but they forgot God and started worshiping idols that the fallen angels had told men about. They worshiped the creature instead of the Creator. God told Jeremiah they are a stiff necked people. Jesus' lineage went out from the Tower of Babel just like the believers of gods and goddesses did. Noah's son Shem kept the godly line going. Noah was chosen to go through the flood and repopulate the world because he had not mixed with the fallen angels and kept believing in God. The Son of God was given to the Jews and the Jews who were from the godly line of Shem knew Him not. They were so religious and traditional that when God came among them they didn't even recognize Him. They were wearing the nicest clothes, driving the nicest cars and had plenty of money donated by the poor and the rich. They sat at the best tables because they were priests. If they wanted a law, they just made up one. They knew how to control the people with their self righteous attitude and false doctrine, but when the Lord showed up they couldn't even recognize Him. He came to His own people, but when they rejected Him, He gave Salvation to the gentiles also. Many Jews did believe, but not all. The Bible says partial blindness has happened to the Jewish People until all the Gentiles come in. Christ has 144,000 great preachers and 2 Great Witnesses and even an Angel will preach the gospel after the church is caught up. Christ intends that all Israel be saved and as many unbelievers that He can bring into the kingdom during the Great Tribulation which is a time like none other on this earth.

Your only proof that ANY of this took place is the bible, which was written (presumably) thousands of years after Adam and Eve. Why do you trust the bible to prove such illogical and unlikely events? And WHAT do you mean by different people in the world worshipping the same god? Did the CHINESE worship your god? What about the Greeks? The Persians?

God does not exist, he did not write your bible and he did not EVER to speak to ANY man. He does not exist. You are delusional to believe otherwise.

You have no idea what you are talking about. WHY does it not occur to you that the bible is FICTION and your entire purpose driven life is a complete waste of time????????

First of all, God communicated in a spiritual manner, not through an audible voice.God did it through spiritual thoughts or ideas to Adam and Eve. Secondly, God never said he created man instantaneously. Man said he did. Adam and Eve were symbolic for mankind in general. Why was our version only introduced to one region of the world? It was the hub of civilization at the time. In God's infinite wisdom he knew the news would spread and after 2000 years I think we could say God was correct.

i saw something on the history channel while i was on break at work that said the garden of eden and this "fall" from the path was probably a metaphor for when agriculture began. scientists have found what could have been the "garden of eden" by looking for clues in the bible. apparently during the paleolithic era i think the Persian gulf was actually a lush valley with 4 different rivers flowing into it. when the ice age came to an end the valley flooded forcing anything that lived there out. it turned out that around that time agriculture was beginning to become big so the "fall from god" could have been humans taking their survival into their own hands and not being scavengers anymore. of course the story was jazzed up abit because for a long time it was told from mouth to mouth and they didnt know there was an ice age that was ending.

Because the God Yahweh is the only God that ever existed either in spirit or in the flesh. All other gods are false gods made up by creative human minds.
