Many
critics of the Bible like to point out apparent discrepancies in Bible
narratives. One story that is hard to believe is Noah and the flood.
Noah was a descendant of Adam,
meaning Adam is Noah's great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather,
as Noah is listed as the ninth generation from Adam in the biblical
genealogy; Noah's father, Lamech, is the direct link in this lineage. The flood only concerns the family of Adam, not other people who had no knowledge of the God of Adam.
Contrary to Churchanity doctrines, Adam and Eve are not the progenitors of the whole human race.
If
you believe that Adam and Eve were the first humans,
you need to re-read Genesis 1 and 2. There were other races (the Bible
refers to race as "families of man") on the earth long before Adam arrived. We
know that Cain took a wife from the land of Nod. ~ Genesis 4:15-17
We also know that the phrase "kind after kind" appears more than 30 times in Scripture. Today, we know kind after kind means DNA. White people only produce white babies, black people have black babies, dogs have dogs, cats have cats, etc.
And if you believe the three sons of Noah repopulated the earth with all the different races, then "kind after kind" is meaningless. The truth is the flood of Noah only destroyed the wicked, not innocent people who were not in the transgression. The LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And what was the transgression? Intermarriage with nephilim, fallen mighty ones, and total disregard for righteousness.

Noah's descendants eventually intermarried with other races because DNA tests reveal multiple ancestors from all parts of the world.
What about Neanderthals Humans?
Neanderthals were very early (archaic) humans who
lived in Europe and Western Asia from about 400,000 years ago until they
became extinct about 40,000 years ago, or intermarried with Adamites and over time their physical appearance changed.
Svante Pääbo won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2022 for his discoveries concerning the genome of the Neanderthal,
of extinct hominids and human evolution.
Neanderthal
humans were most
likely created in the Genesis chapter one creation because God created
male and female. In Genesis chapter two when Adam was formed and became a
living being, Adam was was alone. He had no female companion until Eve
was created for him. There were other people on the earth
long before Adam, perhaps millions of years. We know Cain married a
woman from the land of Nod (the word Nod means wandering, like in hunter-gatherers). ~ Genesis 4:16
