There were no pre-adamic men in the line of Adam. I am not a scientist. I do not profess to know anything but Jesus Christ, and him crucified, and the principles of his gospel. If, however, there are some things in the strata of the earth indicating there were men before Adam, they were not the ancestors of Adam. Adam was the son of God. . . . He did not come up through an unbroken line of organic evolution. There had to be a fall. ‘Adam fell that men might be.’ (2 Nephi 2:25.) .
