Was there life before adam and eve?

I know all of the theories that Adam and Eve (I even know about Lilith) were the very first two humans upon this Earth but there is a word in the Bible that does not sit well with this theory and is damn near cotradictory in this matter. That word would be 'REPLENISH' as from The Holy Bible in Genesis 1:27-28:

'27So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.'

In order to RE-PLENISH something it had to be plenished before. For example how do you refill your glass of soda if it were not filled prevously?!? How do you REPLENISH something that has never been plenished (yes it is a real word, look it up if you cannot take my word for it or look it up ).

So tell mee, if the Bible is the infallable Word of God and God says to REPLENISH the Earth to Adam and Eve, does that not state that there was human life here BEFORE Adam and Eve and that life is all gone (or very close to it) and now it is up to Adam and Eve to REPLENISH this formerly plenished world? If this is to much of a denial of all you've been taught and believe can you ATLEAST admit that it is POSSIBLE?

So once again here is one of my religous thought and your submissions will be greatly appriciated and most welcomed, I just ask please no hurt feelings nor anger. So tell mee what you think?!?

I also question this account. There is also another verse that causes questions as to the traditional story of Adam and Eve, Genesis 1:2 says: 'Now the earth WAS formless and empty . . .' almost all translations state the word WAS could be translated BECAME. If this is correct it would mean that there was a world THEN it became void. This to me would mean that Adam and Eve were created Later and apart from God's earlier creations. This could explain the Nephilim in 6:4, the existence of people in the land of Nod. This would also account for the existance of life that carbon dating states as many years earlier than dating from Adam to today, such as the dinanasours dtc.

Okay, first off, that is not a contradiction, it's just that you're reading too much into it. And in the whole scheme of things, this detail is not important. Adam and Eve were the first people on earth. Period.

You are right!! Another example that there were others here be fore Adam and Eve, is when Cane told God that someone might kill him, and God put his mark on Cane so they would not kill him. WHO WAS GOING TO KILL HIM, there wasen't suspose to be anyone except Adam and Eve IT WAS THE NEPHILIM, THE OFFSPRING OF THE FALLEN ANGLES, You are right on, The Angles that were kicked out of Heaven, Read again and you will see who the father of cane was, EVE had 2 kids, one was good and one was evil. Keep reading and ask God to show you,He will. YOU ARE NOT READING TO MUCH INTO IT, Do a search on GOD and FALLEN ANGLES.

I just looked in three bibles and the word replenish is no where to be found!

It's just a bunch of stories people came up with to explain their existance when they had no clue where they came from thousands of years ago. don't worry about it it's not important. the truth is in science and evolution, humans evolved from primate ancestors, and further back a small furry mammal that was probably primates ancestor and so, on. and yes there was an abundance of life before Humans including the dinosaures, and even further back, eukaryotes etc. just saying the facts no offence..
