Adam from Atlantis?

Did you know that Adam means red? If you do, have you ever wondered why the first man created was named red?

Was it because red was the colour of life? Or because, as scientist are eager to tell us, man didn't originally see any colours but red?

Or was it, perhaps, because the 'first' man was literally red?

...

I'm sure many of you are familiar with the concept of Atlantis? Well, long story cut short, according to Otto Muck (writer of the book The secret of Atlantis):

Atlantis was a big island or a small continent in the middle of Atlantic ocean (which, of course was named after it). When a big asteroid hit the Atlantic, Atlantis sank, causing catastrophic consequences around the world, eg. floods and gas clouds, that destroyed most of the mankind.

People who lived in Atlantis, had most likely red skin. They were ancestors for both the indians and the europian people. After the catastrophe, a huge cloud covered the Europe for thousands of years, leading to loss of colour pigments in the skin of a europian man (result = white man).

Now could it be, that after thousands of years, people still had some legends about their ancestor who had a red skin, and because of this particular feature they named him red, Adam? You do the math.

PS. If you have even a slightest interest in Atlantis, I warmly recommend you to read Otto Muck's book, it's very convincing.
