Irrelevant. The post was to someone else, so it doesn't matter that it didn't suit your needs.

POINT: God created one man and one woman. It's not an "allegory". The Bible makes it clear when it's being allegorical.

POINT: Since Adam and Eve and their children were the only people on the planet, it's either incest or the end of the human race.

Please prove that there would have been at that time.... oh that's right... you don't believe that there was such a time.

The theory that your ancestors were monkeys has warped your mind.

Well why would it suddenly develop down the line? We know that incestuous relationships produce congenital defects and yet it wouldn't have happened back then? That's one lame argument and then some.

Your latter just shows an ignorance of evolution but that's hardly a surprise.

Is this all "allegorical" too?

(7) And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim. (8) The sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, Put, and Canaan. (9) And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabta, and Raamah, and Sabtecha. And the sons of Raamah; Sheba, and Dedan. (10) And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be mighty upon the earth. (11) And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim, (12) And Pathrusim, and Casluhim, (of whom came the Philistines,) and Caphthorim.

(19) And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg; because in his days the earth was divided: and his brother's name was Joktan. (20) And Joktan begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah, (21) Hadoram also, and Uzal, and Diklah, (22) And Ebal, and Abimael, and Sheba, (23) And Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab.

You haven't answered my question. Would there have been no such thing as congenital birth defects back then? Why would they suddenly develop? Not everything in the Bible is allegory.
Why would there be birth defects at all back then?

Since your ideas about earth's history are wrong... it leads you to all kinds of wrong conclusions.

Biological: genetic

Were (Was?) Adam and Eve's genetic material flawed?

My sister is post menopausal.

Sociological: disturbs the family unit/order

If I marry my adult sister with the full blessing of my family what is disturbed?



Religious: supposedly it's an abomination

Not a consideration with Adam-and-Eve.

And in the context of my sister and myself, you're not my religious leader.



Philosophical: gross

That's the nuns talking :chuckle:
