How to populate a Tree with flat JSON?

If Adam and Eve , did their children have sex with each other to populate the world?

  • I remember learning about Adam and Eve as a kid. I am sure everyone knows the basic story of creation about how “god” took some clay and created Adam, then used part of Adam to create Eve. I don’t know why he didn’t just create her from scratch. I guess he was trying to recycle or something? Anyway, we were basically told that we all came from Adam and Eve but they didn’t really talk about details of how it worked. It wasn’t until I was older that I actually thought about it…. Does that mean that their kids had to have sex with each other?!! In short, the answer is YES! The story of Adam and Eve according to Islam After Adam and Eve ate from the “forbidden tree” and got banished from heaven, they were sent to earth as a test to “god’s” new creation. The Quran does not mention Eve’s name, but Muslims know her as Hawwa. Eventually, they started having kids together. God decided to give them two sets of twins, each set included a boy and a girl. The boy from the first set was named Cain (Qabil) and boy from the second set was named Able (Habil). Of course, the girls names are not mentioned again… I guess they are just not important. Apparently, “god” ordered the boy from the first set to marry the girl from the second set (because having sex with your sibling is not as bad as having sex with your twin?)… And that’s how it all started… That’s why we are here today… I had two problems with this story: Marrying bothers and sisters is not allowed in Islam (or in any society that has basic common sense!). So that means that this story contradicts the “Islamic law”. Muslims say that this was a one time exception to get the population of the world started, then it was outlawed later in the Quran. Why couldn’t “god” just create another couple to have kids too? Or better yet, a whole bunch of families. That way they don’t have to be incestuous and have sex with their siblings. He is all powerful right? He surely knows that there is a major problem with this idea. Islam and Evolution Many Muslims believe that the Quran and science are in line with each other. They interpret parts of the Quran to explain scientific ideas like evolution and the big bang. I remember learning about evolution in school, but we were always told that “god” made it happen and that the story of creation in the Quran somehow fits. I don’t know how that made sense, since the idea of humans created from clay just doesn’t work with the basic principles of biology and evolution. To make matters worse, the story of Adam and Eve makes us all a result of inbreeding! Especially because “god” made Eve from Adam. That would give them similar genes right? So their kids would be 2nd generation inbred. That is a recipe for disaster! Talk about major genetic defects….But I guess “god” knew that. It’s just sad that people in the 21st century still teach such nonsense. They make up crazy interpretations that would make the Quran seem like it works with modern day science. They would also never admit it when they are wrong. They would rather teach their kids how to be ignorant and follow religious ideas based on blind faith. I refused to do that. I studied the Quran, asked questions, and thought about the answers I was given. It turns out that the best way to lose your faith, is to actually read your “holy book”. Reading the Quran is the main reason why I am an atheist

  • Answer:

    Evolution is utter nonsense. Evolution is based on age old lies. Evolution is a man made theory, opinion, conjecture etc. Evolution is absurd. Evolution is not science at all. It is not testable, observable nor verifiable. Evolution cannot be proven. It's all based on faith, opinions, conjectures and lies. Have faith dear friends in GOD.

>Muslims say that this was a one time exception to get the population of the world started How convenient. Xtians do this as well. Excuse contradictions by channelling themselves as God. "Deciding" what God meant. In reality it is blasphemy.

. For starters you can forget all about that Islamic C R A P - It was made up by the Vatican to fool the arabs (and it succeeded) Adam & Eve were PERFECT Creations straight from God, as were there children. It was about 2500 years later that God told Moses to write down all the laws (incest included) SO JUST WHAT IS THE PROBLEM ? .

I've heard Christians say, "Genes were allot purer back then" Idiots. This was nicely written and good job on becoming an atheist.

Yes they did. Who makes the laws anyway? God or mankind? God told Adam and Eve to populate the earth and subdue it. How could they do that without their children marrying each other? It was not until 2500 years after the flood that God made the law that we could not marry close relatives. The earth was well populated by then and there was no need for close marriages any longer. When God created Adam and Eve they were created perfect. No defects. Their children were much closer to perfection than we are. That is why they could marry each other without any problems. By the way, Abraham married his hafl sister Sarah. It is in the Quran.

Your are to read and belive for your self and the light will come. Out to u.

When Cain killed Abel, God sent Cain to the land of Nod which was east.of the garden of Eden, there he will find a wife. This suggests.that Adam and eve were not the only people on earth. The significance of Adam and eve were that they were the.first people God created.

Jacob

why is it that only we atheists seem to have read the books. adams kids married the children from the land of Nod. I know its only 1 line in the whole book, but it means that the whole book is a lie.

Dear Falmaata T, Firstly you have answered your own initial question ! Secondly re the Qur'an; here is a history lesson for you: FYI, the Qur'an is documented as a Papal Conspiracy to control the Barbarian masses, hence it's resemblance to The Holy Bible. According to sources, the Qur'an was introduced to 'Muhammad' by the parental cousin( 'Waraka ibn Nawfal' ), of his first wife 'Kadijah'. Waraka was a Catholic priest living in Mecca, and one who had made detailed studies of the Gospels and the Old Testament scriptures. Waraka was the first to recognized Muhammad's call to prophecy as authentic and islamic tradition recounts Waraka saying: "There has come to him the greatest Law that came to Moses; surely he is the prophet of this people". What the people didn't know, was that Waraka had been covertly recruited by Jesuit Monks to present the Barbarians with their own religion through Muhammad, with a proviso that the Papacy remain Sovereign. However, after the death of Muhammad the Barbarians reneged on this agreement, and the Papacy reacted with swift vengeance through the Crusade Wars, which claimed the lives of millions. Thirdly, am I to understand you would prefer Atheistic Evolutionary Theories based on "Blind Faith", as opposed to Religious ones? Fourthly, may I suggest you do some serious brushing up on genetics regarding in-breeding and the beginning of mankind.
