If they weren't God was there Parent's (incestism)

Then why are there some many dysfunctional new borns?

Maybe they were the first humans on earth and they had a baby boy, then a girl, then a few years later the baby boy and girl who have now gowned up had a child, with the process repeating in a cycle.

That would make them incested, which is against the Christian religion

I'd start with questioning how God got here and how Adam and Eve got here not incest. If you think this is an explanation for the dysfunctional newborns today, not only are you completely wrong as these can usually be explained, but you must believe in the story of adam and eve to believe that.

Adam and Eve is a story anyway and not a theory. Besides who's to say Adam and Eve were Christians anyway, just because God created them doesn't mean they believe in God. There's a chance that God created me but I don't believe in him.

If you actually had any depth towards your knowledge of the situation, other than your arrogant personal opinions, you would perhaps be aware that the Catholic Church recognises that the story of Adam and Eve should be taken on story level at that basis. Many Catholics (including high priests) actually don't take every story in the bible for face value or that each one physically happened in time - many are metaphorical stories and tales that portray a meaningful message in one way or another - with Adam and Eve being just that.

Is incest okay?

No, incest is not okay. Incest is the sexual relations between family members either by birth or marriage. God has forbidden this in the Bible.


Lev. 20:11-12 (http://bible.logos.com/passage/nasb/Lev.%2020.11-12), "If there is a man who lies with his father's wife, he has uncovered his father's nakedness; both of them shall surely be put to death, their bloodguiltiness is upon them. 12 If there is a man who lies with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall surely be put to death; they have committed incest, their bloodguiltiness is upon them."
Lev. 20:19-21 (http://bible.logos.com/passage/nasb/Lev.%2020.19-21), "You shall also not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister or of your father's sister, for such a one has made naked his blood relative; they shall bear their guilt. 20 If there is a man who lies with his uncle's wife he has uncovered his uncle's nakedness; they shall bear their sin. They shall die childless. 21 If there is a man who takes his brother's wife, it is abhorrent; he has uncovered his brother's nakedness. They shall be childless."

But some may point out that Adam and Eve had children and since there were no other people around, their children would have had to commit incest in order to produce more children. At the time of creation, the genetic line was pure. It wasn't until later, at the time of Moses, that incest was then forbidden as the genetic pool became less and less able to stand interbreeding. "No one is to approach any close relative to have sexual relations. I am the LORD," (Lev. 18:6 (http://bible.logos.com/passage/nasb/Lev.%2018.6))

God, you really need to grow up and realise that not every word in the bible is set for in stone and has to be taken literally.

As I have made perfectly clear already many catholic officials believe that the majority of - and in particular the story of adam and eve - are not to be taken on a literal basis, but more on a metaphorical one.

You clearly are still failing to comprehend this very simple and competent issue.

With likely hundreds of years of child-bearing capability, Adam and Eve likely had 50+ children in their lifetime.

animals only have the instinct to have sex when they hit puberty, animals hit puberty at younger ages then humans, the main reason we have sex education is to do with condoms, sti, the troubles of childbirth etc.
Unlike animals, we have knowledge so yes people know about sex before they have it now. Look at evolution, when man kind started out we didnt have knowledge so we worked on our instincts.
How many dogs know exactly why there bleeding when there on heat? None, but they have the urge to mate with males.

I disagree. Say there's two separate family generations, who of which has not had any sort of dysfunctional members in them, one of the members of each family gets together and get pregnant and the baby comes out ok.

If we had that instinct, then we would know all of that at birth ;)Like someone said sex education is more guidance on STDs, contraception and pregnancy. Like in animals though, information is passed down through families (and often in schools for humans). Obviously it had to be figured out at the start of time but I'm pretty sure it'd be worked out soon enough. Bare in mind you get sex education mostly before you hit puberty.

Not that I'm religious, but in actuality, if you have two genetically healthy people, and they had children who were genetically healthy, and those children were incestuous, you wouldn't end up with disabilities. So yes, they were incestuous, but *apparently* Adam and Eve had lots of children (other than Cain and Abel) over a very long time, and it was for the sake of humanity/God's will, so that would mean incest was alright. :P After a few generations, any 'incest' would be no longer between brothers and sisters anyway.

I can't believe I'm arguing for the bible, but nowhere does it say that Adam and Eve were white, (just like Jesus wasn't white!), and I think Christians believe that any skin colour variations etc happened afterwards (which even evolutionists believe).

Dan2nd
21-04-2009, 08:40 PM
But if you were to beleve in evolution and if everything on this planet evolved from the same source of life or whatever does that not mean in some seriously distant way everything that is 'alive' on earth is in some distant way related and has just evolved in different directions?

Is that correct or have I misunderstood? :P

They had far more than just 2 children. The most notable (and really the only one much mentioned) other than Cain and Abel is Seth, who is often seen as Abel's replacement and whose descendants make their way down to Noah and then on from there after the flood etc. Seth's wife is stated as Azura btw, so he didn't do his mum :P
