Stop dwelling on Jewish myths. Channel your mind to real, productive questions. Cain never existed, neither did his brother or parents.

And a jobless theist also quickly replied? Lol. As if people go to work on sundays.

Can you prove the bold statement, or you're simply drooling in ignorance as usual Prove that these people never existed.

The burden of proof rests with you, since you are a proponent of the story. My default position to tales like this is disbelief, since they are example of myths that exist in every culture in the world. And this disbelief was reinforced when christians like yourself openly attested to the fact that the creation story and proceeding stories are allegorical and not literal.

So please, prove to me that Adam, Eve and Cain existed. And while you are at it, also tell me why you don't believe that the figures in our African myths which we all studied in our GSTs in 100 level, didn't exist.

The book of genesis is not one book but a combination of 3 books.

Biblical scholars call the 3 writers J,E and P.

The story of Cain picking a wife to marry was written by the second writer. The contradiction is present because the person that wrote the story didn't write it with knowledge of the prior story.

That's why it seems like a contradiction.
Jewish scholars compiled these books during the babylonian captivity thereby forming the pentateuch.

If you want to take the book as real and inerrant, you will wrap your head around it so much that you might have a headache.

You have 2 options;

1. Take the story as real and don't try to understand it. Pray that the holy spirit will make you accept it as true without doubt and live your normal Christian life.

2. Accept that the story is clearly wrong, research on the origin of bible to understand the errors, thoroughly read and study the bible and the Christian religion. But know that when you go down this path and find the light, you can never be ignorant again. When your mind has been illuminated it can never be darkened. Most likely you will cease being a Christian if you go down this path.

So OP you have two choices, accept truth without evidence or find the truth with evidence. But remember that the truth doesn't know you or care about you so the truth can be anything even beyond your wildest imagination.

Prove what exactly I never made any claim, you did! Since you believe in your head that these figures are fairy tales, prove it to me that perhaps, I may also learn of what is real and unreal!

And please, stop the habit of making fallacious statements. Where did I discuss with you my belief or disbelief in African myths

Cain was born with his beautiful twin sister Luluwa n Abel was born with his not so beautiful twin sister Aklia. After their birth, Adam and Eve agreed that Cain was to marry Abel's twin sister while Abel was to marry Cain's twin sister. it was Satan that tempted Cain to kill Abel so that he would marry Luluwa who was a beauty to behold. After the death of Abel , Seth a very handsome boy was born who later grew up n married Aklia (Abel's twin). if u have more questions, call me I'll be glad to provide u with answers.

The Scripture did not say there were four people on earth o...That's just the parochial way of thoughts when the flesh instead of the spirit of revelation and understanding takes over. Genesis 4 vs 17 says Cain knew his wife: where did he get a wife? One thing you should know is that Adam had many children, and the book of Genesis summarises and focus on important events that turned around the course of men. Between verse 1 and 17 of Genesis Chapter 4, many years have gone...and Cain and Abel are big brothers...they were well above 30 and only those who lived around that time like Enoch (from the lineage of Seth), Mahalael, Jared, Enosh knew their exact age. Daughters too were born around that time...many of them just like sons were born. So, If you look at chapter five, after the death of Abel, it was when Adam turned 130 (after the fall) that Seth came to be. So, don't tell me no female gender were around and because the bible omitted them doesn't mean they are not. Bible gave cognizance to men because they are the founders of their genealogy.

When Cain killed Abel, there were people around at that time who are also daughters of Adam. Seth was mentioned specifically because he was like Adam, and people started calling on the name of the Lord after his son was born. You will see that in chapter 5, only the line of Seth was mentioned as Adam's genealogy, Cain was cut off for a reason.

Besides these three sons Adam and Eve had many other unnamed sons and daughters.The Bible does not give the exact time period when Cain took his wife. Depending on how much time there was between Cain being married, he either married a distant sister, or if enough time transpired, he could have married his own niece. Probably the later is true. Marriage to a sister in the early stage of the human race was not considered wrong or unnatural. Even later on Abraham’s wife was his half-sister (20:12); also 24:4 and 28:2. God did not prohibit such marriages until the time of Moses when is was specifically stated it was against the law of God according to Lev. 18:9, 18:11, 20:17, and Deut. 27:22.
