One of the biggest debates in evangelical Christianity today is whether Adam and Eve were real people. Sadly, many believe that genetics has proven that humans and chimps share a common ancestor disproving the existence of an original couple specially created by God. As a consequence, many have begun to redefine sin and salvation.
This presentation looks at two central evidences that are commonly used to support shared ancestry. Dr. Purdom shows that human and chimp DNA sequences are in fact quite different and that human chromosome 2 is not the result of a fusion of two ancestral chromosomes. All humans have descended from an original couple specially created by God as described in Genesis.
