Discussion about Christianity by Christians and those who are curious.

Rule #1. Anti-Christian and anti-Bible statements will not be tolerated. Constructive criticism of Christianity is OK, however.

Rule #1.1. The measure for what is considered Christian, as has been the case in the faith since the earliest days, will be the faith proclaimed in the Nicene Creed.

So, so much.

But we all like to start with a father, a mother, and two sons.

Who populate the world.

Not awkward at all.

Well strictly speaking, Adam and Eve had a lot more children than just the three mentioned in the bible.

I had not read that. Well, I guess siblings making out and breeding, then mating with those offspring, and mating with their mother, and father, etc... makes it all better.

It's pretty clear from the Bible that there were people not of Adam's lineage. "Sons of men" vs. "sons of God."

Well. Not really too different than evolution's answer in that respect.

Out of interest, if there are other children, that are not mentioned in the bible, then how did we find out about them?
