Going back to the old theory of creation ... God created Adam and Eve!
After that their offsprings, What bothers me and stands as a weak point in understanding this creation ... is how come children of adam and eve married each others and others married each others for this society to increase !!!

Yep!
In order to populate The God allowed inter family marriage and even Miltie wife marriage--- as populations grew all of this was changed.
Originally Mutations did not occur with close relatives marrying s it would/could today.
DNA has proven that we are ALL from the same parent strain.

Actually, Genesis mentions other groups of people showing up shortly after Adam and Eve leave the garden. God calls them children of man (I think). Genesis is written very loosely. You're given very quick bits and few details. There's some breathing room between the lines where you can wonder whether or not God created other men and women or other groups.
Also, some Christians see the story as symbolic, as if Adam is one tribe and Eve another or Adam and Eve are a collective tribe of people. That's not really what I believe. I tend to believe God is capable of anything, even things my mind refuses to understand.

One thing they had on their side is their perfection from the creation that was only cut down as the years passed from many sources. Intermingling as we know today will produce some defects that are not really good so here we are today with all the defects that have come through the centuries and what do we have now? By the way, the Theory is evolution, not creation. Never been any proof ot the former but plenty on the latter.

They did not!
in Gen 1 you have the creation of the races, the 6th day creation
The Adam was not created until the 8th day!
(1 day is 1000 years)

God created Adam from the dust of the earth. Then He breathed into him to give him life. Then God put Adam to sleep and took a rib out of him to create Eve. His helpmate.
I believe that God is also capable of creating others. I don't believe that Caleb and Seth's wives were related to them.

they didn't. after Cain killed able he was sent away. it's a bit fuzzy in the bible how Adam and eve were supposed to be the first but when time comes for Cain to leave he finds other people. it's the first of many questions people that started looking deeper into the bible for truth rather than stories found out.

Not only that, Noah's Ark. After the elimination of the humanity, Noah and his family have to repopulate the earth... Incest, incest, incest!
Also, how can brothers have children? Does it mean that they have to have sexual relations with Eve?

In that quaint old theory/religion of evolution it would have been the same thing....what's your point.

That's why the bible is wrong. Christianity is for unthinking people.
