Cain's wife.

Kinda confusing? How about silly? “God Drops in Theory”?
Oh well, that's just me being me.

It's much more believable, and logical compared to being created from nothing.

Well feel free to use my “God Drops in Theory” any time you want.

You can use it to plug up the dozen holes in any creation myth.

I only ask that you don't use it to disprove the FSM theory.

Sure will, it makes much more sense. And i'll quote again:

It's much more believable, and logical compared to being created from nothing.

At different times in history and for different people, several things were allowed and several things were prohibited. These changed as time went on and different Prophets were sent by Allah.

I don't see the logic behind questioning the existence of Cain's wife. It's kinda obvious that in the very early days, brothers and sisters would beget with each other.

Well you need to use my “God Drops in Theory” or some other Theory to eliminate the problems caused by inbreeding.

Guess the value of X.

1 – 2 – 4 – 8 – X – 32 – 64

Well since we are guessing, 48 is a guess.

But it surly isn’t a good guess.

(May be god dropped in and changed the logic)

From what I understand, there are genetic problems caused by inbreeding because of the emergence of certain recessive genes (correct me if I'm wrong). Were there necessarily such genetic problems in the earliest days of human history?

I still say the best coherent explanation would be that Adam and Eve were not created alone, and that they were but one of many couples created by God. I haven't seen where the bible specifically states that God created only Adam and Eve and didn't keep at it.

It is not a human only problem. It is a problem every species can have.

Of course they weren't created alone. After they were created, Allah created twins for them. Then another set of twins.

Just like he created you and he created me.

Thats it innit(Note: I'm very opposed to using slang, but I couldn't help it)

That may be true but there is no GUARANTEE that a problem will occur, is there?

Look at nature. Every species has found a way to stop inbreeding.
Gee I wonder why?
But feel free to use my “God Drops in Theory”.

If you want a guarantee you need to go to the original manufacture. :laugh:

Every species also does its best to survive and reproduce.

And one of the ways they survive is by developing methods that stop inbreeding.

Those that didn't are no longer with us. Guess what, they don't get to reproduce any more. :laugh: :laugh:

And so did we. Once the need for inbreeding stopped, it was prohibited.

Or maybe an even simpler answer.
There never was a need.

I find it impossible to have an intelligent conversation about Adam and Eve.
It would be more fun to debate the Easter Bunny.
But then you don’t believe in Easter, so that don’t work either.

You can lead a horse to water
But some will never see the obvious. :laugh:

Keep your “Faith Blinders” handy.
You will need them the rest of your life.

I’m off this thread.
Enjoy
