The Case for Adam and Eve
Eve: The mother of all living humans in the bible.
The Bible dates Adam and Eve to just under 6000 years.
"And Adam called his wife's name Eve;
because she was the mother of all living."
In science Meet Mitochondrial Eve
Mitochondrial Eve - Wikipedia
In human genetics, the Mitochondrial Eve (also mt-Eve, mt-MRCA) is the matrilineal most recent common ancestor(MRCA) of all currently living humans, i.e., the most recent woman from whom all living humans descend in an unbroken line purely through their mothers, and through the mothers of those mothers, back until all lines converge on one woman.
All human beings contain mitochondrial dna (mtdna).
However, it is only passed on through the female egg.
So while a son and daughter receive mitochondria from the mother, only the daughter will pass it on to her descendants.
So when did she live? For mitochondrial Eve, she’s placed anywhere between 50,000 and 500,000 years ago. So a median 200,000 years is the generally settled-upon date.
It’s based on mutations—how long it took for different females’ mtdna to mutate and diverge away from the original central mitochondrial Eve mtdna sequence.
It is based on a theoretical application of the molecular clock concept: Geneticists use this for both dating human and animal evolution, working from the assumption that the mutation of mtdna is constant (although, what is “constant” is speculative in and of itself).
But here we have Admission by evolutionary scientists that all humans descended from just one woman, c. 200,000 years ago.
According to the evolutionary theory, the “earliest hu-
mans” are believed to have emerged 2.5 million years ago.
