Just to clarify…

That is not true. It does not allow for a de novo Adam and Eve. That was left out, as you can see for yourself.

> 1. EC **allows for (but does not require)** a historical Adam and Eve.  
> There are some ECs who believe that Adam and Eve were real people who served as representatives for all of humanity, and other ECs who believe that Adam and Eve are literary characters (like the Prodigal Son) and do not name any actual individuals in human history. BioLogos neither requires nor rejects a historical Adam and Eve, and aims instead to foster constructive dialogue.
