My point is that you require me to begin with citations of the the Baha'u'llah when discussing Baha'i views of Adam and Eve when you yourself did not do so. The extreme irony of this point is that I was merely asking you for such citations in an effort to educate myself about additional Baha'i views, about which you yourself were evidently ignorant. My question of you is still essentially the same. Aside from figurative or symbolic allusions to other Adams, we have established that you do, in fact, believe that Adam and Eve lived approximately 6,000 years ago as a real historical couple, 'though not necessarily the first human couple. I don't think you have yet answered my question as to whether or not you believe that all modern humans are descended from this couple that lived 6,000 years ago.
The other Adams ARE NOT figurative nor symbolic allusions to 'other Adams.' There are no references that indicate that the 'other Adams' are symbolic nor figurative. My point is clear the Adam of the prophetic cycle is not the first Adam nor first cycle of Revelation for humanity according to the citations of the writings of Baha'u'llah. I believe the Adamic cycle is very real and Adam and Eve are real persons who lived at the beginning of the Adamic Prophetic cycle beinning about ~6,000 years ago.
