	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Adam
		The first man and the father of the human race.
		Thus in both accounts man is clearly distinguished from, and made dependent upon, God the Creator; yet he is directly connected with Him through the creative act, to the exclusion of all intermediary beings or demigods such as are found in the various heathen mythologies.
		That man beyond all the other creatures partakes of the perfection of God is made manifest in the first narrative, in that he is created in the image of God, to which corresponds in the other account the equally significant figure of man receiving his life from the breath of Yahweh.

		Wherefore the first man was not impeded by exterior things from a clear and steady contemplation of the intelligible effects which he perceived by the radiation of the first truth, whether by a natural or by a gratuitous knowledge.
		Man was happy in paradise, but not with that perfect happiness to which he was destined, which consists in the vision of the Divine Essence.
		For there was no need for the first man to attain to the knowledge of God by demonstration drawn from an effect, such as we need; since he knew God simultaneously in His effects, especially in the intelligible effects, according to His capacity.

	Apollo 11 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Apollo 11 mission was the first manned lunar landing.
		The first images used a Slow-scan television system and were picked up at Goldstone in the USA but with better fidelity by Honeysuckle Creek in Australia.
		In addition to fulfilling President John F. Kennedy's mandate to land a man on the Moon before the end of the 1960s, Apollo 11 was an engineering test of the Apollo system; therefore, Armstrong snapped photos of the LM so engineers would be able to judge its post-landing condition.

		This is because the study of the origin of man and the universe is not really science at all, but only speculation based on the philisophy of the men perpetuating their beliefs.

		Yahweh did nothing so foolish as to make a special creation, just to have a man to wield shovel and pruning shears, when He already had millions of pre Adamites available for this type of work.

	What was Adam, the first man, like? - KidExplorers.com / ChristianAnswers.Net
		Even though Eve was the one tempted by the serpent, and the one who first ate the forbidden fruit, Adam is the one who brought sin into the world, because he was the head of the human race and the one to whom the commandment had first been given.
		The first physical death recorded is that of at least one animal when "unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coats of skins, end clothed them." God killed an animal, and shed blood, and gave a covering to Adam and Eve.
		First Corinthians 15:26 states: "The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death." Death is swallowed up in victory, Paul says.

	SUMMA THEOLOGICA: Was the first man created in grace? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		I answer that, Some say that man was not created in grace; but that it was bestowed on him subsequently before sin: and many authorities of the Saints declare that man possessed grace in the state of innocence.
		We may also say that, though man was created in grace, yet it was not by virtue of the nature wherein he was created that he could advance by merit, but by virtue of the grace which was added.
		As the motion of the will is not continuous there is nothing against the first man having consented to grace even in the first moment of his existence.

		In The First Man, the unfinished draft of which was found in a briefcase next to the wreckage of the car accident that took Camus's life in 1960, Camus attempts to capture his own life in a manner that could only be called retrograde.
		...But in The First Man, the prose is less sinewy than in earlier renderings of the same material, more supple, and more elegiac, as though drawing inspiration directly from Proust as it recalls the odor of burned grass, of manure, of algae, the strong smell of fermenting grapes and of grape liquor...
		...This is not to say that The First Man is altogether purged of the sort of intellectual-and at times clunkily symbolic-content of the philosophical novel, or that, in subsequent drafts, Camus might not have yielded to the impulse to write "big" themes...

		The word 'Adam' means first man and I don't think the first man knew of himself as the first man. Language evolved and didn't suddenly appear.

	Was Adam the First man?
		Bible "fundamentalists" and Christian humanists claim Adam was the first humanoid or man, and was consequentially the father of all peoples and races on earth, or ever existed on the earth.
		Verse 47 states: "The first man [Adam] is of the earth, earthy: the second man [Christ] is the Lord from heaven." Now if the word "first" is used literally and universally, then so is the word "second," which means Christ was the second human being on earth.
		Adam was the "first man" of the Adamic line, and he had affected all in that line in a spiritual way.

		It is the story of how Gaius Marius, an outsider to ancient Rome's elite classes, becomes First Man in Rome, he who stands tallest among other men who are his equals in rank and opportunity.

		To be the First Man in Rome was more than being consul; consuls came and went at the rate of two a year.

	A Consideration of Camus's "The First Man" as a Postcolonial Work -Carol Elliott
		At first glance, The First Man would seem to fit neatly into the framework of postcolonial literature: The story was written at a time of Algeria's violent struggle for independence; it was set in Algeria; it contains many descriptions of the domestic conflicts between the French colonists and the Arab Algerians.
		This is the state of what he called "the first man," being without moorings to a place or a people, "wandering through the night of years in the land of oblivion.
		In that essay, Camus recounts the Myth of Sisyphus, a man who challenges the gods and thereafter is condemned to roll a boulder to the top of a mountain, whereupon it falls back to the bottom so that Sisyphus must repeat the task endlessly.
