Gods’ Genes

Man sits on top of the chain of the beings on surface of earth, but the fact is that his origin is still a puzzle. With all the knowledge and wisdom we have, the origin of mankind is still a matter of debate. The three heavenly religions; Judaism- Christianity- and Islam, attributed our presence to being created by God. He created a single man called Adam, then a single woman called Eve. They got married and produced all the human beings. The present day scientists explained our presence by the theory of evolution and natural selection, attributed to Charles Darwin. He said that humans and higher humanoids have common ancestor and man evolved from this ancestor.
Sumerians have opinions that are completely different from both. They believed that humans were created by ancient aliens who landed on earth 445,000 years ago to search for gold. They created humans to serve them and replace them in the hard work of mining gold.
The link between the Islamic narrative and the biblical one is apparent. However, the connection of both to a common Sumerian origin emerges most interestingly in the summerian epic of creation of Adam, the first human of its kind.
The mentioning of Adam raises up many questions: who was Adam? Was he a single person, that started all humanity? What if he meant a group or species? If our creation passed through stages, was there Adam for each stage? How can we explain this creation and correlate it with today’s scientific knowledge? The questions go on and on with a lot of curiosity and anxiousness.
The earth, at the time of creation of Adam was not devoid of creatures. On the surface of earth, life was developing and on top of it was the primitive erect man “Homo erectus”. Homo sapiens was not available yet, and if it has to wait for the usual evolution, it would have waited several million years. However, Homo sapiens suddenly appeared on the surface of earth, the first prototype was Adam, and from him came out all the present day human species. How this happened? What is it’s relation with the evolution and natural selection? Was it just one step or was there several trials with failure and success? The history of creation of mankind was mentioned in details in the summerian texts and exactly repeated in the biblical and Quraanic texts. This denotes one old origin of the story. It is a divine heavenly origin which seeded the earth with the seeds of life and accelerated the creation of humanity when proper time came.
This heavenly power didn’t leave humanity alone, but continued its development and gave humanity civilization in the proper time. When the heavenly religions came, they derived from it their revelations and repeated the same story told before. This is evident and clearly proved in studying the biblical narrations. What about the sayings of Islamic Quraan? Does it have also its origin from the far away summerian tales? Does it agree that we were created by ancient astronauts as the Sumerians mentioned in their epics?

The Sumerians were the first to assert that "Man" was created by the Gods called the Anunnaki. This appears at first sight to clash both with the theory of evolution and with the Judeo-Christian believes, based on the Bible. It also appears to clash with the Islamic believes, based on the Quraan. But, what if the careful deep study shows no clash? What if the study of the Quraanic verses supports the summerian tales and proves that there is no conflict between them?
Zakaria Sitchen found that the information contained in the Sumerian texts can affirm both the validity of the theory of evolution and the truth of the biblical tales. It was shown that there is really no conflict at all between the two (11). The question is: How about the Islamic Quraan? Does it really conflict with the summerian texts? Or is it in agreement with it?
