Does Adam and Eve had a Belly button?

Does Adam and Eve had a Belly button?

Answer:

This is an interesting question and I'm very glad to present my answer. But on presenting my answer, I need to say something for that it will not result in any quarrel or disagreement later for even Bible says that to stay away from these types of talks which will result only in quarrel due to the disagreement between two opinions caused by lack of proper evidence. Let me also mention that I don't think an answer for this question will help you or anyone to gain some spiritual edification.

There are two categories of people, in which one believe that  Adam and Eve do had a belly button and there are also who believe that they don't had one. Whatever the answer may be, no one will be able to go to the past and check their belly to make an assured report. The only thing which we can do regarding that in this 21st century is just to make possible assumptions by the best of our awareness in science.

I'm answering this question just to present my assumption from a variety of factors I studied. Once I thought it was just a matter of common sense to say that Adam and Eve don't had a belly button. But on presenting the matter between some friends, strong oppositions came and it made me rethink and study my answer to check and confirm that whether my answer is more possible to be true. But still I don't compel anyone to believe in my opinion due to the lack of visible evidence.

First of all, we can think about the reason and statement of both side of people. It is like one group of people believe that God created Adam and Eve and as they don't came out of a womb they lack a belly button. The second group believe that God they had a belly button for God created human being complete on creation and without a belly button human body seems to be imperfect. I do believe and support the side which says that Adam and Eve don't had a belly button.

The most important reason behind it is as everyone knows that the contradiction of umbilical chord result in the formation of belly button. Adam was created by God and Eve was created from the rib of Adam. As Adam and Eve were created not from a womb, more clearly without being inside a womb. Naturally there was no possibility for an umbilical chord and thus for a belly button.

Now we should answer the questions from people who believe that Adam and Eve had a belly button. There main statements and questions are regarding the imperfection of the body without a belly button. They are asking 'Why can't God create Adam and Eve with a small belly button?' First I got confused with their statements and later on thinking and studying about the matter, I found certain truths from science that do not support their statements.

Their main statement about the imperfection of human body with out a belly button was like a kind of illusion matter. If we think for a while about our body without a belly button, of course it will seem to be like an imperfection. I studied about the reason behind this imperfection. Then I realized that it is a matter of illusion, more than the matter of imperfection. If you think about the reason behind the imperfection, you will come to know that it is an odd case. More clearly as we all had a belly button, we believe that perfection is to had a belly button. But if we all don't had a belly button, we will never feel it as a matter of imperfection.

Secondly, on thinking about the chance for God to create a small belly button in Adam and Eve. I reject that for the reason I don't think God will create a belly button in Adam and Eve without any function or purpose. Even in this 21st century medical science reject the possibility of a child growth without having an umbilical chord. They again conform that umbilical chord do not have any function or purpose to do after the child birth and medical science provides that as the reason to cut it off after child birth. This umbilical chord contracts together and form the belly button which also do not have any function or purpose.

Many people consider belly button as some kind of organ in the human body to say that there was no possibility for God to create Adam and Eve without a belly button. Such people need to understand the fact that belly button is just a mark resulted by the contradiction of umbilical chord, just like a wound leave a mark(a scar) on our body when it get healed. I don't think God will make an unwanted scar in Adam's and Eve's body without a cause.

I would like to share you one more thing which made me confirm that Adam and Eve do not have a belly button. It was to study and to realize that the creatures that born from a womb or an egg without an umbilical chord lack a belly button. Birds, Fishes etc. are examples for organisms without a belly button for they were not grown and born with the help of a umbilical chord. These are also God's creation and God did not created a belly button in them for there is no function for a belly button in them. If God do not created a belly button in them to make some perfection, most probably he doesn't made one for Adam and Eve too.

And finally, as a spiritual meaning, belly button represents a generation. It shows the connection of a human being to his mother and it clearly represents the connection with a generation ahead. If you believe that Adam and Eve had a belly button, it also represent that there is a generation, more clearly a human generation ahead. It will not support the creation of human being from God. According to me, those who believe in creation should believe that God created the first man without a belly button, but with perfect plans to make generations from them with a belly button.

Hope you understand my opinion and May God bless you with this answer.
