I'm sure this has been asked a thousand times before...?
but if the human race started with Adam and Eve, who then went on to have two SONS: how did they produce the next generation?
Like I said, "i'm sure this has been asked a thousand times before", but I would like to know some different views from different people.
Ok, fair enough Crimson, but for them to produce the next generation they would have had to perform 1st generation incest, which would have without a doubt created offspring that would be infertile, and have many ill-effects of the mixing of the closely matched genes.
Nice one, Bear who sings.
Although I couldn't help but think, "shut up". What the hell are you talking about?
At the end of the day, incest is incest, which is a sin according to your religion, and also produces infertile offspring - especially 1st generation incest.

The Book of Genesis, written by Abraham was presented in parables. For example, the earth and all things were created in seven days. There was no calendar in the beginning, so what did one day equal? Genesis was written with the knowledge of words of the Prophet Abraham's time. Adam and Eve were accounted for, being first man and first woman, and they had more than two sons. Cain and Abel were accounted due to the murder of one and the punishment of the other. What about brother Benjamin? Why was he accounted for in Genesis? I would imagine, though not documented, that incest wasn't an issue then since the goal was to be "fruitful and multiply". The bottom line is this. Build your faith in knowing that the world as we know it was created by someone greater than us. If we had all the answers, why go through the trial of life, to prove ourselves worthy to be back in His presence? A person must ponder the things seen and unseen, great and small, and rather than ask why, bend your head and pray about it. Study your scriptures. The answers are in there. Build your faith that there is Someone greater than man.
