I assume you are talking about their children, though Eve was more of a clone of Adam, with some extras thrown in. Incest became wrong as generations passed and mutations began creeping into the genetic code. Had Adam not allowed the knowledge of sin, the one piece of knowledge he did not already have, to enter the world, by rejecting Eve's offer, than today, marriage between siblings may have been considered normal. Of course, we would also have eternal life (not immortal, which is what spiritual beings have), we would have the full use of our brains, and earth would be a paradise, as well as all the other planets we would be living on, since the Earth could only hold so many people with eternal life.

You are right. Incest as we define it did happen. Gross huh? Not really. Genes were so perfect at the beginning of creation that a brother and sister could mate and have extremely healthy children. Our time in this sinful world has made our genes very defective and having children with a relative enhances those defects and makes bad children. But with perfect genes there would be no problem reproducing brother and sister.

Well not to mention, when Adam and Even have Cane and Able and Cane kills Able, Cane is supposed to bear the mark that will tell people that he has committed this sin. But if Adam and Eve were the first people on earth and Cane and Able were there children...who else was there for Cane to be judged by...hmmm

you are all ignorant. incest is only looked down on in todays society. Back then it was ok because they had to populate the earth. We are all at least 60th cousins.
Have a good day cousin.

When Satan deceived Eve, sin entered the world and people became more and more sinfull, that it grieved God he made man. Therefore the destruction of Sodom and Gomorroh. If we dont repent, the same is going to us.

In theory they weren't brother and sister...since eve was made of adam it's kinda like adam was getting it on with himself...creepy.

Well, we had to start somewhere. I'm sure that once there were enough people in the world, the incest rules kicked in.

there was no such thing as incest back then. they had to procreate somehow. God gave them permission when he said "be fruitful and multiply"
