Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

Deists believe that human origins can be traced back to naturalistic
causes!. The majority of them who are scientifically literate tend to
accept evolution as the explanation for the diversity of life!. As to the
first instance of life on Earth, science has not yet reached a consensus
on the exact circumstances, so a deist would be forced to speculate as
well!.

Deists would NOT accept the Adam and Eve story as told in Genesis!.
They do not accept the Abrahamic god as true, that is why they are
deists and not theists!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't really know the answer (yet) to this question, which is an interesting one, but I doubt that they do believe that the first person on Earth was who you have referenced, because :

a) most of the people on the 'official' Deist list (for example, Wikipedia's list) were of a similar ethnic group, and it is well-known that no matter how spiritual, it is often difficult for people of certain origins to admit precedence of those of other origins, which is where racist factors come from, partially!.!.!. we all know this!. Touchy issue!.

b) there is a great deal of misinformation and polemic about what constitutes "natural" religion, personally I like that term, and am always open to discussion with people on the subject, but most 'religionists' do not remain objective, and so leave discussions early;

c) deep introspection and active/further research leads one to understand that there is structure in the universe, that there are universes which are separate from the one we perceive on a daily basis, from our human part, and that each individual has the birth-right of placing him/herself in a position to try and understand what is his/place on this Earth, and with respect to such, even people on the Deist list end up changing their opinions at the moment of death - but that is something so very personal and each individual goes through it!.

Good question, I repeat!. Keep searching!. Africa is mother to all, in my book!Www@QuestionHome@Com
