I feel like maybe Q posted this because right now might be the time when we need to clear our minds.
People existed before Adam & Eve, but they didn't have a soul. Having a soul is what makes us different from other animals. Having a soul is what makes us created in the image of God. We are part of the spirit world. Animals don't have a soul, they are not part of the spirit world. Angels are part of the spirit world. Animals have no concept of a higher being, spirits or spirituality.
My sister-in-law is a nurse and she said she took care of a lady once who had 3 boobs. Two of the boobs were normal and then there was a 3rd one off to the side. A medical anomaly, a freak of nature.
