Evolutionary biology teaches that all human beings are descended from a single "breeding pair" of humans.

Take that shriveled knot at the end of your brain stem and employ it in the task of reading this short article. Then you can say, "Science supports the Bible!" and do a little dance.

Real universities don't use wikipedia for References.
From The above wiki

there were many other women around at Eve's time with descendants alive today, but somewhere in all their lines of descent there is at least one man (and men do not pass on their mothers' mitochondrial DNA to their children).

If there were other women around at the time of Eve that were not her offspring, that statment disagrees with the bible.

No Pelthais. It says other women were around during the time of Eve that were not descendents of her.
You misquoted wiki and wiki or the bible are true. Not both of them.
Not alive at the same time as "Adam"
Pelthais says science supports the bible
Wiki isn't science and his cut and paste didn't support his claim again.

Sometimes mitochondrial Eve is assumed to have lived at the same time as Y-chromosomal Adam, perhaps even meeting and mating with him. Like Eve, "Adam" probably lived in Africa; however, Eve lived much earlier than Adam – perhaps some 50,000 to 80,000 years earlier than Adam – due to the greater variability in male fecundity

I am tired of reading this balogna. Eve had her rib taken from Adam. Pelthais says wiki is true and wiki agrees with the bible. Get the stories straight.
How in the world does Pelthais tell us wiki is true when God caught Eve giving fruit to Adam who had been dead 50,000 years.
