Genesis doesn't say all of us came from Adam and Eve. Just that they were the first. Genesis neither says, nor implies, that God stopped at Adam & Eve.

It is crystal clear that Adam and Eve were the first humans and all descended from them. The bible is obviously bullshit, but don’t make shit up either to make yourself sound smart.

Luke 3:38 Acts 17:26 1 Corinthians 15:20-22

I specified Genesis, as did the meme.
Where will the Jews discover your wisdom?

Genesis seemed like it was two stories mashed up to one.

One had a mass of people already created, like you said but another story where Adam is first person.

My punishment is greater than I can bear! Today you have driven me away from the soil, and I shall be hidden from your face; I shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth, and anyone who meets me may kill me.

People already existed or is it assumed Eve populated the world in some way?
