In her computer class, she had to do this worksheet for her daily assignment. One part of the worksheet said "Who were the first couple on Earth?" After reading this, she stood up & fought with the teacher because she (and I) feel that it shouldn't of been put on the worksheet...and to no suprise she lost (the people in class are rather ignorant and such...so she just kind of didn't do it instead).

No.... Bad move on her part. You have to about in a completely differnt way. I would have put in a sarcastic and completly correct way.

The idea of the first couple raises many scientific and mathematical questions. Whether you believe in creation or evolution, most likely there was one original human. The entire human race must have decended from one original person. It is interesting to calculate, based on our knowledge of population growth, how many years ago that person existed.

Ummmm.... is it person or person's?? Also it would probably be pretty hard to figure out when the first humans started popping up just by using a mathematical model of growth. There is pretty good evidence that suggests that human beings came really close to extinction on one occasion.
