If you believe The Bible to be a historical account of the birth of humankind, the answer is yes.

If you're of a more scientific bent, a more likely common ancestor for us all would be someone like "Lucy," the 3.5-million-year-old Australopithecus afarensis skeleton discovered in Africa in 1973.

============================================== Many anthropologists support the theory that there actually was an 'Adam' and there actually was an 'Eve.' Mitochondrial DNA indicates that we are all decendants of an Eve, and an Adam. The interesting point is that they lived approximately 20,000 years apart from one another.

Adam and Eve were the first people on earth so their gene pool most have produced these colors, Black.brown,white ex..... all though Adam and Eve might have had all these colors in them to start with in order to proceded the human races, also Noah an his wife and his sons wifes might of had some diffrent race in them, either way we are all related and I think that Adam and Eve had black in them brown , yellow ex.... to start the races cuz Adam and Eve were the ones to start the human race :)


If god created Adam and Eve where did all different races and languages come after all languages are just letters rearranged to mean the same thing?

If you want biblical explanations, the bible does have one for the existence of different languages, which is the story of the Tower of Babel. As for different races, presumably different children of Adam and Eve gave rise to different races (some theologians prefer to trace back the different races to the different children of Noah). But bear in mind that the bible is a form of mythology, which should not be taken literally.
