We are a diverse community of scholars,
advancing science in a fractured society,
engaging the grand questions together.
A civic practice of science, making space for differences.
Some think Adam and Eve are a myth. Some think evolution is a myth. Either way, the best science opens up space to engage larger questions together.

Christians are often taught to reject evolutionary biology. With this research, it is my hope they will attain a greater respect for the discipline.

The Meaning of "Ancestor" and of "Human"
We Face a Mystery in Origins
Just like us, C. S. Lewis encountered challenges from science. Rather than falling into unending arguments, he found a better way. Following his example, how would we make sense of people outside the Garden?

Endorsements
As a secular scientist, I was seriously skeptical of this book. Nevertheless, Swamidass has ably shown that the current evidence in genetics and ancestry is compatible with a recently de novo–created couple as among our universal common ancestors.
Nathan Lents, biologist, author of Human Errors
Both scientists and people of faith should read this book to learn that conflict and irrelevancy are not the only ways in which science and religion can interact.
Alan R. Templeton, biologist, author of Human Population Genetics and Genomics
In this book, Joshua Swamidass effectively demonstrates that people like me, stuck in a specific genetic paradigm, were wrong...He shows in a clearly written, highly accessible style how a traditional understanding of the Genesis narrative, including the sudden creation of Adam and Eve, is fully compatible with science.
