Right God creates Adam and Eve, the first humans, they have kids... adn then the human race is born. Umm just a point, wouldnt the gene pool be a little small, I mean really the very fact that the kids would have to get it on with each other, or with their parents.. incestville... but the gene pool is not big enough and theyd all die in a couple of generations....is that really how the human race was born?

Don't forget, when Cain killed Able, he was sent to the land of Nod, where there were people. The way the book of genesis reads, god throws Adam and Eve out, for fear of them becoming like US (paraphrased from genesis 3:22). If there were other gods, as it referenced, it would stand to reason (biblically anyway) that these other gods made people in the rest of the world.
Storytime aside, its evolution. The gene pool is deeper than you think...

Ok that's easy Genisis 1:27 On the fith day God creates man in his own image man and woman he created them breathed into there nostrils the breathe of life. But in Genisis 2:7 it says the same thing only this time there is one thing different this time man became a living soul in other words at first we new what food was and who our mate was but we didn't have a clue who we were
But in 2:7 we became a living soul we now new who we were and so intelligent we became that God let us name the animals the angels we kept records of our existance. You see we were the most important beings alive. Why you ask? Because God being a spirit and the angels to didn't know physical life and those who had physical life didn't know spiritual life when God made Adam and Eve these two had physical life and a spirit that would live on after life here on earth so we were the only creatures that new both spiritual and physical. In Genisis 6 it talks of the Nephelum a race of Giants that were here before adam and eve.
So look at it this way there is adam, eve, cane. Cane took up a wife and built a city for his son Enoch. Now how is he going to build a city without help and how did he know what a city was if there were only 5 people on earth, doesn't seem likely unless there were other people. For once science and the bible actually agree there were people before adam and eve I mean adam and eve lived about 6-7 thousand years ago and man has definatly been around longer than that and here's the best part. THE BIBLE NEVER SAYS THAT ADAM AND EVE WERE THE FIRST HUMANS!

Yes. Adam and Even are the father and mother of humanity. And yes, it seems incestful, but I'm sure God intervened so that Adam and Eve's children had no retardation or other conditions having to do with the closeness of genes. If he didn't then we'd probably all be vegetables. God knew what he was doing.

Yes that is how we were born. You need to realise that the Bible is a collection of different story by various actor and that the authors who books did not make it, can definately provide a link. Beside my God is a miracle maker. The evolution crap is not real, why does man not evolve anymore.

Creation is not more than a fairy-tale... or better yet.. It was a simple way of telling people where we came from..
it's like a parent telling a child at an early age that the stork brought them to their parents rather than telling the child the truth because the child is not able to understand at an early age about child birth.

well, according to the Bible, sin is the transgression of the law.
If incest wasn't known as transgressing the law, then they would not be sinning in doing it.
It is rather difficult to comprehend it though, as the word incest has a totally negative meaning in our society today.
To talk about neurodegeneration kinda stuff, which Im no expert at... I think they were somehow too healthy for it. Their generation lived up to 900 over years old...

whether we understand it or not adam and eve were purebreds so to speak their DNA structure were perfect.they lived 70 years on the planet before they sinned,then after the fall they started living less years genetics flaws started coming about.
do we pray about the things we dont understand?

Of course not, that's just childish religious mythology. We are the product of evolution, and that's a fact.

Actually, this is one matter that ALL religious and non-religious evolutionists will agree on that we are the results of incests in the early stages.
