What Young People Are Asking

Are Adam and Eve really everyone’s ancestors?

Okay, who hasn’t thought about this one? Just take the issue of people’s skin color. If Adam and Eve are our ancestors and presumably had the same skin color, why are humans so multi-hued? Do we truly have a set of common ancestors? Is Genesis chapter 2 more mythical or historical? Even if you’ve never thought about this before, we think you’ll be intrigued. To get ready, read Genesis chapters 2-4.
