hahaha. in the first place, adam and eve is a myth, which made the initial source questionable. with that, it shouldnt spawn to your latter question.Originally posted by cwill:Got this question that IÂ’ve mulling over for a long time. Understand that in the Bible, God created Adam and Eve as the first man and woman. If there were no other men or women around at the time, wouldn't the sons and daughters of Adam and Eve have to resort to marrying their own siblings to procreate? IsnÂ’t that incest?
Don't mean to offend anyone...just would like to hear a logical explanation for this.

now that you mentioned, i do ponder about it in the past. my explaination is that we were supposed to be smarter than we think we are. it is the incest which led us to our current level of intellect ....
anyway, i was just bullshitting. dont take it too seriously.![]()
Well i dun noe whats logical to you, i have answered this question countless times and some accepted, some dun but well some things only God knows, so here goes my explaination, its up to you. Its short and simple, I will not claim it to be the absolute truth.Originally posted by cwill:Got this question that IÂ’ve mulling over for a long time.

Wow good detailed and to the point explanation, with a little bit of christian "encouragement" at the end.Originally posted by gasband:Well i dun noe whats logical to you, i have answered this question countless times and some accepted, some dun but well some things only God knows, so here goes my explaination, its up to you.

The main source of contention comes in Genesis 4 when Cain laid with his WIFE. Up till now in the bible, the only four humans mentioned in the bible is Adam, Eve, Abel and Cain. So how on earth did the WIFE appeared? So, many gathered that it could be a sister of Cain, thats why the issue of incest. Why i wouldnt think its incest, 2 points.
Firstly, Cain was driven out of Eden, a mark was put on him so that whoever finds him will not kill him. Firstly, if the wife is a sister, wouldnt she be in Eden too? why is she outside? Secondly, if the people outside of Eden are also desendants of Adam And Eve, then they would recognise its Cain and wouldnt kill him, would God need to put a mark on Cain so that no one will kill him?
SEcondly, then the question, where did all these people suddenly come out from? The logical answer i can come up with us this, from the point when God made Adam and Eve till when Cain laid with his wife, it has been many many years. The bible has never stated where these "EXTRA" people come from, but that does not give it a strong basis to say that those are sisters of Cain. WHat I want to say is that if God can make Adam and also Eve, He can make another human for Cain too. Adam and Eve are the first humans God made, but never was it mentioned the ONLY humans God made.
I dun claim those to be the right answers, God forbids, if you believe, I hope it brings you closer to God, if you dun believe, I hope you will understand it just another human trying to understand an Almighty God. In the end, what i want to say, is that even in my attempt to answer the questions, the only thing I am interested to bring across is that God is a mystery sometimes, we are not God, we do not understand how God works sometimes, just as He said in the bible, My ways are higher than your ways, My thoughts higher than your thoughts, my advice to people who asked questions like these, is that, be prepare for answers which will not be adequately backed up cos certain things we humans just cant answer.
yeah thank u, ya normally i try to answer but i will put in disclaimer lah cos certain things simply cannot answer with human intelligence..Originally posted by jOhO:Wow good detailed and to the point explanation, with a little bit of christian "encouragement" at the end.
I didn't know that God left a mark on Cain. Hmm.. guess I don't know my bible that well!
I do like your "since you asked, so I'll answer" attitude.![]()
