"Adam was the first man of what we would call the human race"

Larry A. Witham quotes Gordon B. Hinckley in Where Darwin Meets the Bible: Creationists and Evolutionists in America (See also DN)
What the church requires is only belief 'that Adam was the first man of what we would call the human race.'
 "The story of the rib, of course, is figurative" ("The Blessings and Responsibilities of Womanhood", Ensign, March 1976, p.71)

Yep. Going past that complicates things unnecessarily.
