CAIN

The first non-humanist depicted in the Judeo-Christian Bible was Cain, who was Adam and Eve’s eldest son.

In a fit of jealousy, Cain killed his brother Abel and became a fugitive.

Some in the Mormon faith have believed that Cain’s ancestors were punished by being stricken black, an unpopular view among African-American believers as well as non-believers. In the twentieth century it was rejected by most in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
