lol! I've also seen billboards across Kansas that depict a light-skinned, blue-eyed Jesus. But of course I know the reality is he would have been darker-skinned and brown eyes. Some historians have said he would have had to be more black looking than white. Just don't tell the Republicans that

When they leave the Garden, there are a bunch of other humans already existing (and for who knows how long) outside the Garden. Neanderthal ancestry of those people is completely possible.

Seriously? Show us where that is referenced in your writing.

Well, what answer would you anticipate hearing? It's like asking, "What was Jesus' favorite color?" or "What did the apostles think about Jesus hairstyle?"

Namely, there is no answer to this question.

Who do you think Cain and Seth and the other offspring of Adam procreated with? Who do you think the "others" were that Cain said would kill him when they saw that God wasn't with him? Beyond that, Cain went and dwelt in the Land of Nod, which would indicate some kind of civilization already existing.

There's a further question of if Adam was created on the 6th day and the creation story in Genesis 2 is just additional detail, or if Adam was created separately from the 6 days of creation ("8th day creation").

As far as the OP - humans have always been humans, and not mixed breed with animals.

Think about what you said about souls and spirits being uniquely human. If we came from animals, not having souls and spirits as we do - how did we get them?
This is the crux of the problem, that so many think salvation is all about "FINAL DESTINATION" rather than equipping us for the journey down here in hell.

I agree, but maybe it is fun for some folks to surmise and wonder about such things. Funny thing about the past is that it is like the future in that it becomes unknown once it is far enough behind NOW.

Isn't ' down here ' meaning on earth ?
Whereas the day Jesus died, the dead Jesus descended to temporary ' biblical hell '( grave ) Acts 2:27; Psalm 16:10
Jesus final destination was: heaven

Some people's final destination is also: heaven for those of Revelation 20:6; 5:9-10
Whereas, most people's final destination will be a happy-and-healthy physical resurrection back to life on earth. -Acts 24:15
A beautiful paradisical earth under Jesus' coming millennium-long day of governing over earth - Revelation 22:2
Only wicked people will be: destroyed forever as mentioned at Psalm 92:7

Well, either way, the earth is hellish for many living souls at this time and always has been. Seen any pictures of Syria lately?

I wonder what it looked like when the Crusaders rampaged it?
