Numerous scriptures and modern-day prophets have referred to Adam as an actual being and the actual father of mankind. Do they have it wrong?

Actually, I think two of the references to Adam in the hebrew version of genesis do refer to a single individual. Most of the references (I think 31 of 33) refer to Adamah, or mankind (plural).
