This is over my head. By multiple origins does that mean Adam and Eve werent the first humans as the Bible says? And if so, as a fellow LCMS member do you believe that or that we’re all descended from the first two people, Adam and Eve?

I'm willing to try explaining any of it. In the meantime, I'll keep that in mind and try to find a different way to say things.

No, it means humans and apes may have been created separately. Or birds and dinosaurs.

And if so, as a fellow LCMS member do you believe that or that we’re all descended from the first two people, Adam and Eve?

I believe we're all descended from Adam and Eve.
