What do you mean prove it? It's been proven already, that's why there are like 2 billion believers in the world. Do you think all those people are just wrong?

How were human eyewitnesses present to witness the creation of mankind? You're confusing the new testament for the torah. Your religion teaches that the torah existed before the Universe, and was the blueprint for its creation.
Genesis 2 tells the account of Adam and Eve who were the first humans in Eden, but the later story of Cane and Abel show that there were already other humans living elsewhere.

It's actually a little more interesting than that. The oldest anatomically modern human fossils don't appear clustered in any specific region of the continent. There have been some found in Morocco, Ethiopia, and all the way south as South Africa in roughly the same period. It seems we emerged as a species while having contact and travel over the whole range of Africa.
Why or how we broke off as a separate species from other hominids while living in presumably overlapping geographic regions is a mystery, at least to me.

I'm reminded of the concept of divergent evolution. I guess that'd be the presumed answer to what I mentioned in my previous post. Maybe it's just a different way of framing the same question though. What would've caused us to diverge from other hominids? What would've selected against our more ape-human hybrid-like ancestors and what was that niche that we (and other apes, chimps, etc) ended up filling that they couldn't?
