uhhhh, they had more than two sons. We don't have records of all of their children, and they had a girl at one point(otherwise YOU wouldn't be here). Oh yeah, and you'r funny picture has it's own flaw: Grammar.

But if Adam and Eve were the origin of human life on Earth, their sons/daughters would have to have children with each other.

Yeah. That's how it works.

Problems in the Bible are problems with Christianity and/or Judaism and do not address nor are they related in any way to the question in the OP, which is that of a deistic nature.

There is nothing in the Bible that says that they were the only 2 people he created. Cain and Abel were born, and when Cain was cast out from Adam's presence, he went to another land. There he had a wife. Yes I realize I am wasting my time explaining what you could read for yourself.

[quote] There he had a wife.[/quote]Right there. That. Where did she come from? At some point, someone had to screw their sister or mother in order to further the human species.

[quote][quote] There he had a wife.[/quote]Right there. That. Where did she come from?[/quote] Genesis 4:16, 17 Like I said, you can read it for yourself.

Edited by Mad Max: 3/13/2013 10:28:26 PMBut it doesn't say that God created her. Just that she existed in another land. Which makes me wonder how many people God created.
-
Why do you think that? If God was able to create all living things, herds of animals, schools of fish, ... would he also not be able to create more of mankind as well? Just because Adam and Eve are highlighted in no way means that they were the only, just the first.

makes sense
