You know, that's a very interesting question. I never really thought of that. But there's really no way we can find out, can we? At least until we go to Heaven and maybe ask God, Adam, or Eve.

But I don't really care!!!! It doesn't really matter to me, I'll ask God when I meet Him.

If we were all made in God's image......then the real question should be, "Does God have a belly button?".13% Voted for by Saint Cosnahan, nanoinfinity.

They must haveVoted for by OrangeMoon.
Adam and Eve, being the first human beings and ancestors of us all, must have had belly buttons, or else we wouldn't.

The Bible does hint at it.Voted for by frndofyaweh.
After Adam and Eve left the garden, They were instantly recognized at first sight, by all who saw them. ---------- There must have been something striking about their features. Something physically different.
Possibly it was, they had no belly buttons. I have thought and thought on this, but cannot think of another feature, so apparently different.

Support of Young Earth CreationismVoted for by TeChNoWC.
If they did, it is evidence to believe that God could and did in fact create the world with the appearance as though it had existed prior to creation (eg, people with belly buttons that weren't actually physically born and also aged appearances without actually aging, the presence of fossils and other hints that would direct us to an inaccurate conclusion to the true age of the world).
This being said, many see it as an opening for deception, in which a benevolent God would/should not have as one of its characteristics.
However, others reject it as deception and rather our inability to foresee rash conclusions, and therefore use it as an argument for Young Earth Creationism, in that we do not give credit to God for His ability to simply replicate items that appear to be aged within a click of His fingers, and if we deny Him such power, or even simply say that He wouldn't perform such acts as it would impede on His benevolence, then it would seem God in fact created Adam as a child, and not as a fully grown adult.
However, it is all conjecture.

Most likely notBelly buttons are formed because children who are conceived have an umbelical cord (spelled it wrong), and it connects us in the belly. When the cord falls out, it leaves a holy with a tiny scar inside of it. After I lost some weight, I was finally able to look inside my belly button and see that scar. But because Adam and Eve weren't connected to a monther via an umbelical cord, they wouldn't have hte belly button.Voted for by Doom Pickels.

did they?Voted for by rockys8r.
There is no scriptural reference if they did or if they didnt. I say that they didnt because they werent born out of the womb of someone...

No A & E. No belly button.
Adam and Eve, and their supposed 'father' are myths. From an Objectivist point of view. The question would make a great satirical poem.April 3, 2007

Adam and Eve myths maybe, but
everything has a "father". In this case, God. I'm just gonna go ahead and guess your one of those "God can't possibly exist" types. Well, then, where did the first human come from? if you say "evolution" where did the first living being come from that we can trace ourselves to? where did all the matter that started the Big Bang come from? What is our universe expanding into? how come everything works so perfectly together?Chance of all this being because there is NO God:....kinda small, ain't it?

Anyways, IF there IS a god, it would appear that all he did was set the laws of physics and create a large plasma ball which exploded to form all the matter of the universe and let it run itself.
In fact, it is a more elegant theory than "Humans are the reason the universe exists because God created them directly".
(I personally do not believe this, because you still have the question, "Where did God come from and why?", which is basicly the same as the creationist question, "Where did the big bang come from?". I firmly believe that, eventually, this will be answered.)
SO, I would say that yes, "Adam" (The male creature to whom we are all related by blood) and "Eve" (the female ancestor) had belly buttons.
