@danna Said My response to your Questions is this;
God made all the green growing earth. And, filled it with birds and beasts. Then he created the Garden of Eden, it was his special Blessed place. And God then, created Adam and placed him in his garden, from Adams rib he created Eve. Genisis 1 is a quick overview. Genisis 2 goes into more depth.
{Now, there are accounts of a first wife, Lilith, but, unless you trully want to hear about it, But I won't go into it now.}
On the day they ate of the fruit from the tree of Good and Evil, they were DOOMED TO DIE. Which they means they would now suffer sickness, grow old etc.
In the Bible it clearly states that all of human creation came from Eve. Simply put, Cain went off with a sister.
Adam and Eve had the first sons, Cain, Able, Seth. And, Cain killed Able.
Adam and Eve went on to have many, many children. Sons and Daughters.
Okay. The thing about incest. It makes either really high breeds, or real mutants. One of the reasons the flood happend was to wipe out all of this mutation.[Greek mythology gets its roots from all this] Another reason the flood happend was that the fallen angels came and bred with women on earth. Creating even more extremities. It was wild!
And, all of this happend because we have FREE CHOICE.
The Rain of the Flood lasted 40 Days. The waters of the Flood itself took 150 days to recide.
Alot of things happend, it is a great epic story. You really must read it all, chronologize it, to really get an understanding of it. I have been working on it for some time.
Is there anything else you are curious about?
Wouldn't it make a really good movie?!
I've read it already, twice. Some parts i have read over more than 100 times.
Inbreeding is never a good idea, it produces recessive traits and a small gene pool is likely to eventually produce freaks with genetic disorders galore.
The fact that genesis 2 goes into more detail is irrelevant as the order has been changed, more detail would simply mean a better description of what is being created and not when it is created.
Do you believe genesis is literal? Do you believe in young earth creationism? Have you looked into any other posibilities?
