Did Adam and Eve have a belly button?

[Jazer]

Well, we will have to agree to disagree.

It's science that you do not agree with. That is ok if that is what you want to do. When it comes to science there is a lot to disagree with. I do not agree with genetic modified food. I do not believe that animals should be pumped full of growth hormones. We have dead zones in our ocean and hundreds of thousands of dead fish because of the excessive chemical run off caused by science trying to make money. Yet we know that God will destroy them that destroy the earth. So it is just a matter of time before they do not get away with it anymore.

I would have them with belly buttons, but just not scarred, having never been used or attached.

From Wikipedia:

The navel (clinically known as the umbilicus, colloquially known as the belly button) is a scar on the abdomen caused when the umbilical cord is removed from a newborn baby.

Neither Adam, nor Eve were newborn babies.

In addition, Eve coming from Adam's rib, yet having a belly button, is like building a car from scratch, then putting a VIN number on it.

I thought his mom was the "immaculate conception", and he was the "virginal conception". Confusing.

But then, it's just a story. Staying with the story, I would have them with belly buttons, but just not scarred, having never been used or attached.

From Wikipedia:
Neither Adam, nor Eve were newborn babies.

That wiki entry goes on to explain that the navel is much more than just a scar. The 'belly button' may not have been more than a smooth indentation. I wonder if it would have been just as sensitive? Hmmmmm.

In addition, Eve coming from Adam's rib, yet having a belly button, is like building a car from scratch, then putting a VIN number on it.

I know my local laws, and a scratch built vehicle in this jurisdiction would have to have a VIN created and assigned to it before it could be licensed and insured. What's your point? Did Adam own Eve like she was a car?

Eve did not need one, she came from Adam's rib. But Science tells us that Adam had a mother. In fact the Jewish people want to use the DNA to make sure someone is Hebrew before they will allow them to have citizenship in Israel. I do not understand exactly what their immigration DNA laws are. I think that they go by the mother.

False. So called science tells us that. Science says nothing. Those that claim Eve had a mother are deluded, and operating on darkly inspired partial info.

God speaks to us in and through Creation. In this case God is speaking to us though the DNA.

He speaks primarily through His word to man. Especially of the plan of Salvation. The creation is not in the eternal state right now anyhow, so those that divine those tea leaves better watch out.

The Bible is not God's plan of Creation, the Bible is God's plan of redemption.

It is the story of creation also. And any story that crosses it is a satanic lie.

Romans 1:20 For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

Tell us what you think seeing invisible things means? The stuff we can see like the heavens, scream out the glory of God. The stuff we can't see can only be seen by His word I would suspect?

Eve would look a lot less hot without a cute belly button.

Have you seen her? Have you seen a woman with no belly button?

Isn't there a view that mankind originated from Africa?

Eve, the mother of all mankind?

A little more than 10 years ago molecular biologists believed that they had found evidence in human genes that all people share a common female ancestor, dubbed Eve, who lived in Africa about 200,000 years ago. The claim has seemingly been challenged on both genetic and fossil evidence, and it had been supported by a repetition of the same kind of analysis. There is an argument that one would expect all current humans to have one common ancestor based on sampling statistics alone.

Confidence in genetic approaches to this problem should also be tempered by another report. Three British geneticists, led by L. Simon Whitfield, carried out analysis of both mitochondrial DNA and Y chromosome DNA from the same people. The mitochondrial data yielded a time of origin of modern humans between 120,000 and 474,000 years ago. The Y chromosome data indicated the origin was probably between 37,000 and 49,000 years ago. And two more Y chromosome studies using newer techniques and larger sample sizes were reported in "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA 97 (2000)": report numbers 7354-59 and 7360-65 and they add more evidence for the younger dates. They both support a 50,000 year ago origin for humanity. They also seem to point to a rapid population expansion around 28,000 years ago.

"However, the 50,000 year time may be too long, and the true time may be about 36,525 years, which rounds off to 40,000 years, because it has been shown by Awadalla, Eyre-Walker, and Smith, in Science 286 (24 December 1999) 2524-2525, that "... The assumption that human mitochondrial DNA is inherited from one parent only and therefore does not recombine is questionable. Linkage disequilibrium in human and chimpanzee mitochondrial DNA declines as a function of the distance between sites. This pattern can be attributed to one mechanism only: recombination. ...

Are you familiar with how they associate time with DNA? What is the basis for it?

Belly button piercings do hurt, but I sure do miss mine.

I hear that they could present some danger if a woman gets pregnant.

Have you seen her? Have you seen a woman with no belly button?

My mother-in-law lost hers with the tummy tuck. Maybe that's what happened to Eve. Some women have a new fake one made so as not to look funny.

Yet it is a scar just the same.

And I find it rather ... ironic that you are arguing in favor of God creating evidence of something that didn't happen.

How is a writer supposed to date 3 billion year old igneous rock from Greenland?

By realizing that daughter material were here before decay started?

But a mother in law would not be suitable to determine what looked hotter? They asked me a few weeks ago if I wanted to bury or cremate my dead mother in law. I said do both, I don't want to take any chances..

As it didn't happen, what are you doing here discussing it like it did?

BTW, I am also available to discuss details of Star Wars, Star Trek, Santa, and others.

lol!

Let's see. God supposedly made man in his image. Since we all have belly buttons, God must have one too so he would have made Adam and Eve with belly buttons as well. Unless of course parts of the Bible are not meant to be taken literally.

 

[AV1611VET]

As it didn't happen, what are you doing here discussing it like it did?

Actually, I was under the impression that I was here discussing it like they didn't have belly buttons.

BTW, I am also available to discuss details of Star Wars, Star Trek, Santa, and others.

Usually, those who don't dabble in the Truth, dabble in fiction.

If you can discuss Star Wars, Star Trek, Santa, and others fluently, then what does that tell me?

 

[AV1611VET]

Since we all have belly buttons, God must have one too so he would have made Adam and Eve with belly buttons as well.

Now God has a belly button too?

He may as well, I suppose; if you guys can't accept our profiles, I suppose you're not going to accept anyone else's.

[Split Rock]

Have you seen her? Have you seen a woman with no belly button?

Is this like "Have you observed people not observing the flood?"

Irrelevant, since Isochron Dating makes no assumptions about starting daughter material. I would have expected God's One True Prophet on Earth to have known that...
