Really? Enlighten me then.
Look at it this way Europa; what use is this statement that you are so keen on? What does the statement "We are all descendants of one person" tell us?
Certainly it is true in a sense. mt-Eve was one person and we are all her descendants. This is true.
However, this is far from the whole story. mt-Eve was part of a functioning human population of many individuals. Every person living will have some ancestry with those people as well - but only with some of them. Nor would those shared traits be universally shared amongst all living humans.
Worse is that the statement can be too easily taken out of context, as I have been trying to show you above. The simple, natural and straightforward meaning of "we are all descendants of one person." is that we are all descendants of
only one person, a statement that is clearly absurd.
For these reasons, I don't really see the point in this line that you are trying to push. Simply saying "we are all descendants of one person." is both incomplete and misleading, too easily susceptible to being misunderstood or deliberately taken out of context. Whilst being trivially true, the statement tells us very little. Such a statement needs context in order to make sense. you seem to want to remove all context from this statement. In doing so, you are robbing it of any communicative power.
As for saying "ME may not necessarily be the BIBLICAL Eve. ", you are implying that mt-Eve
might be the biblical Eve. This is not so. mt-Eve cannot possibly be the biblical Eve. The biblical Eve lived as part of a very tiny population, just her and Adam. mt-Eve lived as part of a much larger and more diverse population. If she had been one of a single pair of humans, the genetic bottleneck would be very clear and easy to observe. It is not observed, thus mt-Eve is not the biblical Eve. Further, one would expect that mt-Eve and Y-chromosome Adam would have existed at the same time. They did not. Thus, mt-Eve is not the biblical Eve
Any attempt to talk around this simple fact just comes across as blowing smoke. It is a very poor attempt at a Christian apologetic and it is worse attempt to understand biology. If understanding evolution really is your intent, I suggest that you drop the insistence on this "descendants of one person" soundbite and just forget about the Bible. It's not helping.
