I accept Adam and Eve having been real people, as very early humans with moral responsibility for wrong doings. But obviously I don't believe in the literal story, where there was a paradise garden with a snake and a forbidden apple.
When you say "very early humans" youre not saying they were the first of humankind, but two among many, right? Otherwise, it would be paradoxical to believe humans evolved from ancestral apes while also believing Adam and Eve were the two human ancestors of all humankind.
