Did Adam & Eve exist? Denis Alexander, Fuz Rana & Peter Enns - Unbelievable?
Playback speed
Do science and genetics support the existence of a 'first' human couple? How should we interpret the first chapters of Genesis? Do we need a historical Adam & Eve to make sense of sin and salvation?
Three Christians discuss the issues from different perspectives. Dr Denis Alexander is the emeritus director of the Faraday Institute for Science and Religion in Cambridge. Fuz Rana is a biochemist with Reasons To Believe. Peter Enns is a theologian and author of 'The Evolution of Adam'.
Fuz Rana is speaking on science and Christianity at Unbelievable? the Conference 2013 on Sat 25 May www.premier.org.uk/unbelievable2013
