According to the Bible (Genesis Chapter 4), the first born person on earth was Cain, the child of Adam and Eve. Adam and Eve were not born, they were created by God in a mature body.

it all depends on your religious belief .if like me you believe in evalution then there was no first  person as we evolved up from a single cell .if on the other hand you believe in creation then you may find it best to speak with your church leader.good luck.

Since I believe the words of the Bible, I'd have to say Cain

Cain was the firstborn to Adam and Eve..........

Nope, I'm not old enough to be his godmother. Glork came long before Jesus even. :)

Did the program mention Glork?

There was no identifiable "first man", because all men had parents. Biologically, we are all members of the Homo sapiens species. Our species evolved from members of the Homo erectus species, but there was was no one person who was suddenly sapiens and no longer an erectus person. Before that, there was was no one person who was suddenly erectus and no longer a Homo habilis person. Evolution occurs gradually in response to the changing environment in which we live.

Gee mcm, there had to be a first man at some point, in that then everything would correspond with the bible or the bible corresponds with tales before it came into being. What the bible misses is that the first people were hermaphrodites.

don't hate your little sister. She just wants to be in your life and hang out with you, b/c you are her hero. or heroine.

 In the official book, the bible, it says God made Adam first. That's just as good an answer as you'll find anywhere. Whatever or whoever the first man was........let's just call him Adam and be done with it.

Clarifying the official book bit....the bible, is the official book for the Christians. It is not the official book for everyone else. Let's call the first man whatever we want to as there is no proof his name was Adam. It could have been Glork for all we know.

All humans have been traced back to 'Mitochondrial Eve' a woman who lived in Africa about 100,000 years ago though no doubt there were humans on earth before that. Mitochondrial DNA passes unchanged from female to female and thus to male offspring.
