Talk:Adam

What was wrong with...

..."Adam's fate following Lilith's physical death is unknown."? --Reichu 12:21, 17 August 2007 (EDT)

"Defeated by..."

We don't need this field for Seeds. Neither Adam nor Lilith were really "defeated" by anybody. --Reichu 05:04, 31 July 2007 (EDT)

I guess you're right on that; I'll have to tinker around to do that thing to "hide" a field not used...--V 11:23, 31 July 2007 (EDT)

Project E / Adam Project

Someone should probably look into the exact deal with these things, since I keep on forgetting and it would be important when discussing the post-2I stuff. Do they even actually use the embryo for stuff? I mean, there wasn't anything stopping them from starting Evas BEFORE they'd be faced with the inconvenience of Adam blowing sky-high and hoping there would be something left for them to fish out of the Antarctic waters somehow or other. --Reichu 05:01, 31 July 2007 (EDT)

...um, I get the impression that the genetic samples they took were from the actual embryo of Adam. Technically, yeah I guess they could have used cell samples and stuff, but they had the actual embryo itself....you do make the point that we're not sure if the embryo was itself needed to be, you know, alive as it was for cell samples. I mean it probably was what they used. I'll touch upon this later. --V 11:25, 31 July 2007 (EDT)

Well, now that I think about it, Ritsuko does seem to imply a sort of chronology when she babbles in #23. Though it doesn't make any particular sense why they wouldn't have just taken samples BEFORE Adam went kablooey. (lol NGE) But, yeah, some stuff on that Adam Project / Project E mess = Win. Though I don't think you in particular need to spend time doing the research on that; you're a busy guy. --Reichu 12:23, 31 July 2007 (EDT)

Dictionary of Angels

Has Anno been through all this? Even if all the Angels were just there to appear exotic, he's been doing a ton of research. There's a whole lot of surprisingly interesting junk from the dictionary of Angels: 1. Adam is called the bright Angel in the Book of Adam and Eve. 2. He reached from the Earth to the "Firmament"- in other words, all the way from Earth to the boundaries of Heaven. Our Adam does this when her wings spread during 2I. 3. Adam is associated with the sixth Sephiroth, Tiphereth, or "Beauty". Adam may not be particularly beautiful, but Kaworu, her human form, is a beautiful boy. 4. The Talmud records that Adam was created as androgynous in the nature of God, who in turn was androgynous. (Although an androgynous creature would classify as a mother, right?) 5. And of course, the ten Sephiroth are used as a representation of the primordial man, Adam Kadmon, in whose image the first human Adam was made.

Does any of this stuff classify as worth being put on the page?--UrsusArctos 18:27, 14 December 2007 (PST)

One more- In the book of Enoch (Considered heretical), Adam is considered to be the second Angel, which ties in nicely with Rebuild, where Lilith, not Adam, is the first. --UrsusArctos 18:37, 14 December 2007 (PST)

What "Dictionary of Angels" are you referring to? Yes, much of the Angel info they got is specifically from the apocryphal Book of Enoch. --V 18:51, 14 December 2007 (PST)
