Adam and Eve

[Debau2005]

A few moments ago, a co-worker and myself were discussing politics, and religion. She is a liberal Dem as I am. She then asked me to ponder a question. I am asking you what do you think!

Did Adam or Eve have a belly button?

I know not weighty political dialogue but an interesting question none the less.

1. No...

Adam and Eve were single celled creatures!!!

2. About as interesting as...

"How long are the Easter Bunny's ears?"

3. Sorry

It is a slow day at the office.

4. A more interesting question is...

... since Adam was a male his DNA would only have the XY chromosome. If Eve was made from Adam's rib it would be impossible for her to have the XX chromosome... unless Adam was a hermaphrodite.

5. Well now...

That does open a whole new debate on creationism and the start of "man."

8. It depends on what you believe

If you were a true Creation story literalist, you would say no. Those who believe in naturual or God directed evolution would say "yes". I like the theory that Adam and Eve were the first spiritual humans, even though biological humans had been around for some time.
