The Evolution of Adam and Eve

I think it would be very refreshing and relieving to someone who wants to hold on to a scientific evolutionary idea, the grand narrative of evolution and speciation. I do not think that the Bible commits the Christian to de novo creation of Adam and Eve. And indeed, I have always thought that God's creating this humanoid statue out of dirt and blowing into its nose the breath of life is metaphorical and figurative language. It seems to me that these narratives are very figurative in the kind of language they employ.
