Which is it? Are A&E real or allegory? Choose. Then, we can discuss how the language of Genesis says what it says.

Ask God, as I suggested earlier.

I technically don't know for certain, but I can tell you what I believe based on the answer I got from Him when I did. He created the Earth, and all living things including the animal of man, and instilled into that animal the soul of His children, starting with Adam and Eve.

But pray for yourself. His answer to you would very likely be tailored to what He knows your understanding can accommodate.

Any answer to prayer that conflicts with Scripure is not from God.

What did Jesus mean when He said: "But at the beginning of creation, God made them male and female." Mark 10:6 NIV. Can you please parse that for me. What does Jesus mean by "at the beginning of creation"? What does He meann by male and female? Did God create troglidites or hominids or something?

You don't get it, being a none protestant (to include the Lutherins) you don't belong to a Christian faith.
