First man, Adam, Eve and the human species were created through medical and genetic scientific technology. Created from the DNA of the gods man is a modified subculture and a member of their society when he was given their laws, custom and traditions to live by. With great clarity Morris embarks upon his quest to provide a vignette of the origin story of man from the prism of science. He emphasizes the idea of cloning to help readers comprehend the Genesis story, particularity the creation of Adam and Eve outside of biological reproduction. Morris' assertion that the origin of Adam and Eve is simply a cloning process through genetic engineering using the DNA of the "Living Creature", an ancient life form that established itself on earth.
