(first of all, lol, form "a eve.")
It wouldn't be true because it's retarded.
And for proof, for starters, men and women have the same number of ribs.
Hey, fucktard, you lost me when you wrote "a eve" instead of "an eve."
If you're going to go about posting total crap on the internet, learn basic English grammar skills. People will take you more seriously.
'eve' is now a thing, interchangeable with other eves, as opposed to Eve, a specific person? I'm a little lost here.
Of course, the Bible only claims Eve was created from Adams rib in one of its two patently ridiculous creation stories.
Yeah, this should be a Mirror award winner, not a Pot and Kettle winner.
Yeah people! Evolution? There's no PROOF for that! Now, an invisible man who made a man out of dirt and then pulled out one of his ribs while he was sleeping without waking him to make another person out of it instead of just using dirt like the first time, now THAT'S a story I can get behind.
men and women have the same number of ribs.
Going on a tangent, I have read (on the internet, so take with a grain of salt) that the "rib" God took from Adam was actually meant to be the "penis bone" that horses and other cattle have but that humans do not - the ancient cattle herders probably had wondered about why the difference, so the priests added it to the tales (or to one of the tales, anyway). So men *are* missing that "rib" (no mention of were in women that rib is, mind you).
Remember, there is usually a reason for the funny details in myths.
Hope that helps,

Okay people who are trying to disproof the story by claiming that people have an equal number of ribs:
I cut of both my thumbs, have sex and get a kid, will my kid miss both thumbs?
No? Didn't think so.
(But the story is still bullshit)
why wouldnt it be true?
Hmmm... let me think...
Evidence against:
Archaeological records show that mankind is a lot older than the bible says it is.
The theory of evolution, the current scientifical theory used to explain the origin of species, states that man is a descendent of primitive apes.
According to the description of God as omnipotent, he wouldn't have needed a rib, he could have just created her out of nothing. Why take a rib out of Adam, to make him suffer?
(Note: There must be a lot more, but I'm not including it because with this you get the idea)
Evidence for: None. Unless you consider a book proof, in which case every book, including works of fiction, science and religion, that deals with the origin of humans should be taken into account, and several of them lack the inner contradictions, and don't disagree with reality as much, as the bible.
Just look at the evidence and make some conclusions, my friend.
""it is written in the bible that god took a rib from adam and used it to form a eve. why wouldnt it be true? i mean are you suggesting we evolved? where is the proof? its not there.""
Well, erm, for one we still have all our ribs
Where's the evidence we evolved? Here:
Adam and Eve were not simultaneously Negro, Caucasian, Japanese, Indian, Kalahari Bushmen and Australian Aboriginal etc.
So even if Genesis were true, our genetic diversity shows we've evolved.
(So what if the Ark had ten people; all were supposedly descended from the same two ancestors.)
Since we have proved evolution, perhaps you might return the favour and provide evidence for Adam and Eve beyond 'It's in my little book and the voices in my head tell me that I have to believe it and there's lots of other people who think the same or slightly differently from me.'
The simple fact that men and women have the same number of ribs doesn't get your "argument" off to a very promising start, does it? There is however quite literally tons of evidence for evolution, and if you refuse to accept any of it then it simply reinforces the view that you are a stupid jackass.
"why wouldnt it be true?"
Cyclops', Centaurs and Griffins, Oh my. And why not?
"why wouldnt it be true?"
The other "anything's possible" defense pulled out by fundies. I mean, they weren't there either but they just know (wave Bible) about such things.
"i mean are you suggesting we evolved? where is the proof? its not there."
There is no Scripture of life changing over time, we certainly do have proof it does. There are some myths that indeed suggest life changes over time, that the lifeforms we see today didn't exist long ago.
"why wouldnt it be true?"
Um, it is written in the bible that
*After Adam rejected being partnered with cattle, sheep, rats, cats, bats, and musk oxen
god took a rib from adam and used it to form a eve
*He formed ‘Woman.’ She wasn’t Eve until after the Fall.
why wouldnt it be true?
*Because it makes Woman a clone of Adam, and all of humanity to be the result of the ultimate incest.
*And you would like us to believe that God couldn’t foresee that Adam would turn down caribou, elk, cougers, and so on.
i mean are you suggesting we evolved?
*No, not at all. I think the lice in a dead god’s skull stood up and became men.
where is the proof? its not there.
You’re the one who can’t get his creation myth entirely correct, i’m not going to depend on your assessment of a theory you don’t understand.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
