You can find just about anything on the internet if you have enough time to waste.
Today, I found an article with an interesting take on the story of Adam and Eve. Dr. Ziony Zevit, a professor and noted biblical scholar, suggests that Eve was formed, not from Adam's rib, but from his baculum, or penis bone.
His logic is that men have the same number of ribs as women (and the same number on each side of their bodies) but although almost all primates - including gorillas and chimpanzees -have a baculum, humans do not. He claims that it stands to reason that if God removed Adam's baculum then subsequent generations would be born without one.
