With advances in mapping human genome and continuous findings on ancient human fossils (even extract DNA sequences out of them!), the question on human origins has never been more complex or urgent. New theological lines are being drawn: Must there be historical Adam and Eve? How do we understand "image of God"? What about "original sin" if we are not descended from a historical pair? How do we read Genesis along with God's book in nature?
