Were Adam and Eve aliens who crash landed on earth?

It could be that A&E were not from earth at all, they could have been from another planet, there might have been dozens of them who made a forced landing on earth with no way to get off, they could easily have separated and gone in different directions to look for food fighting animals as they went, and setting up camps, the stories of Eden could have been how they saw earth as some kind of paradise.

Perhaps if I make up a longer story covering a lot more then write it down it might be found in a couple of hundred years and believed by people to be the way things happened in the begining? there are sure to be gullable people about even in the future because there always has and there always will be gullable people about.

It's not even "too much Old Testament", in the Old Testament God is compassionate, shows mercy, is patient and long-suffering. Consider the lesson we learn from Jonah, or the word delivered to Ezekiel that God does not desire the death of the wicked, that God takes no pleasure or joy in the destruction of the wicked by desires that that the wicked repent and change their ways so they might live and have life. God has always been a merciful, compassionate, kind and patient God who has no desire for the destruction of the wicked, who has loving-kindness for the sinner and for the wicked person to change their ways and truly live and have life. -CryptoLutheran

Be sure to include in that story a bona fide country existing on the face of the earth.

Incorporate in your story a warning for other countries not to mess with this country.

Then, when a neighboring country decides that this country in this fiction story doesn't have the right to exist, they can just mosey over there to 'push them into the sea' and find out just how fictitious your story really is.

It is more plausible than your story.

I think a person has to be more gullible to think there is nothing to the bible and that it is just a fairy tale. Considering its the most powerful, life changing, historicaly acurate and most widely read book EVER inspired.
I do agree though, that people finding your story years from now might be gullible enough to believe it than say, if you told of another possible story of our existance here that said we started off as a cell then mutated into a fish and over multi millions of years and 110 kajillion random mutations (in which most are destructive) we mutated into what we are today. Most people with common sense would just laugh at that story. Yah, so if you want people to fall for your story, stick to Adam and Eve being aliens.

I asked Jesus "How much do you love me?" He answered "This much". Then He stretched out His arms and died for me.

If you have everything but Jesus, you have nothing. If you have nothing but Jesus, you have everything.

Have you given much thought to where you are going to spend eternity?

if by life changing, you mean directly leading to the persecution, torture and death of millions, then yes

and most widely read book EVER inspired.
Just because it is widely heard of and known about doesnt mean it is the most widely read. I would go as far as saying the Harry Potter books have been read more. Of the hundreds, if not thousands of Christians I know, maybe, MAYBE, ten have read the entire Bible. Of those, at least 150 have read all the books in the Harry Potter series.

Evolution is a fact, whether you agree or not. From this post, I can ascertain that you have no idea what evolution is. Just like a fundie to stick to one thing that sounds funny to their "common sense" and beat it to death, all the while thinking it means something.

It's more likely that it was derived from the Egyptian creation myths.

Actually...it was more likely Cain took the story with him when he was exiled and corrupted it (as in Gilgamesh). Because the Biblical story wasn't the first WRITTEN account doesn't mean it wasn't the first account.

No, that's not more likely. It's more in line with the belief in biblical myth, though.

Most historically accurate book ever? Using what criteria?
