How does the story of Adam and Eve compatible with science?

You’ve brought your twisted debate from the other thread. We humans have evolved from the real Adam and Eve in the Bible but we are not a new species and so your evolution theory remains unproven. Try not to confuse the two.
Gravitational theory is "not proven" so why believe that you will fall. According to you it is not a fact. And why did you put the word "theory" in bold? In the sciences nothing outranks a theory. A scientific theory is as good as it gets.

It is still a fact that evolution is a fact. You do not seem to understand this: Scientific theories explain scientific facts.

I asked if you wanted to learn, but almost all creationists are cowards. They are afraid to learn.

Creationism is a belief of the weak in faith.

How it is not? The history of science is full of errors, why believe it would be correct about possibility of Adam and Eve?
Yet science corrects its errors, the Bible doesn't.

Any time an interpretation is shown to be false, like the Catholic Church's adoption of the Aristotle model of the universe but shown to be wrong by Galileo, the Church convicted Galileo for defying the Church even though they knew he was right, and they wrong.

Lok at creationism. After Darwin and Wallace observed changes in animals due to the changes in environment the literalist interpretation of Genesis was slowly thrown out, and life was more and more understood to have evolved over many billions of years. Yet there are still creationists, and they are wrong in their interpretation of the Bible. Science corrects to more accurate explanations, whilke religion commits to dogma.

I had already ascertained you’re a babbler. No scoffing but this latest comment demonstrates it perfectly in spades. A “theory is as good as it gets”….. oh wait, until there are facts. That will happen when you will see God.

No, just because you do not understand something that does not make someone else a babbler. That is also a breaking of the rules here. Tell me what part of my post that you did not understand and I will see if I can explain it to you.

And if God exists he is not going to be please with you for calling him a liar.

Not only that. We all came from Mono Cells. And we are made of the substances all found in soil. So, we are soil really from physical point. But I believe we have a Spirit which is non-materialistic. In fact I believe, we are Spirits with a temporary body here.
This is wrong. Soil contains organic matter because it contains decomposed remains of living matter. Soil came into existence AFTER plants colonized the dry land. Before that dry land was made of rocks, gravel and sand mainly ..these are made primarily of silica and inorganic matter. Living things are made of hydrocarbons which are not found in these things.

When you see God exists it is you who will have the problem.
LOL! You don't know if he exists. You only have an irrational belief in a God. And your faith appears to be both rather weak and more than a bit blasphemous. You, who knows nothing of a how a world would made, have the audacity to tell your god how he had to do it. And you seem not to be willing to believe in him if he did not follow a particular chapter of a book of myths. That is some nerve. Most Christians do not take Genesis literally and they still have no problem believing in God. They do not try to tell God what he had to do.

It’s sad how the natural science community has filled minds with incredulity to the point its complete theory is believed as actual fact. That‘s all been down to human ego, the arrogance of man, scientists wanting desperately to be right, the collective ego has conditioned the unwary. It’s been very misleading. Good luck anyone standing in front of God disbelieving His Word.

You have no idea what you're talking about. You need to take some science courses.

Scientific theories are composed of demonstrable facts. Like gravitational theory and germ theory of disease. And the theory of evolution which is also a fact of life. Biology doesn't make any sense without it. Science is about evidence, and what it shows us. Something you don't seem to know the first thing about. But don't worry, you can correct your misunderstanding with a little education.

It is just a foolish argument. The reality refutes the silly Adam from dirt myth since that does not predict the obvious. that the human body would have the same elements found on the Earth. It predicts the percentages and those are totally wrong.
The point is, to just say we were apes is to ignore what we were before apes. It all started from an empty earth. An earth which was just soil, and when we die, our body turns to dust again. So, we were made from dust, and we return to dust. Proportions doesn't matter.

Before we were apes our ancestors were more basal primates. Before that an even more basal mammal. You can keep pushing it back to where we were fish and before that if you wish. It seems rather pointless.

It is not believed. It is know. It can be independently tested and confirmed countless ways. Just because you are uneducated and afraid to learn does not mean that everyone is afraid to learn. You won't even try. I told you that most creationists were cowards. They are irrationally afraid.

You may be afraid that you will not believe in God if you realize that the myths of Genesis never happened.

Why would I worry when I have my own empirical evidence God exists. You’re like a crackpot non-creation scientist who has a peculiar notion that Christians need brainwashing with lies. Try to respond rationally why I should worry and not you, see if you can do that at least.
