There was no Adam. The story of Adam and Eve etc. is pure myth. It is all a big pigeon drop scam. The pigeon drop scam is where somebody convinces another there is a grand some of money to be had if the person just renders 1/10 that amount. Of course, if the dupe pays his money nothing is exchanged. In the case of monotheism, the pigeon drop is about agreeing to certain terms claimed to be laid down by some infinite invisible being beyond the universe who says to agree means great eternal rewards. There is of course the negative part that to not agree brings eternal agony. This is a "mind forged manacle," to use Willian Blake's poetic line, that has enslaved humanity for centuries. We need to break free of these preposterous things and start living in more realistic and functional ways.
