    Wasn’t there people outside the garden? I think it stood somewhere that they met people after leaving the garden.

        Don’t know wasn’t there but Genesis 4 definitly speaks about other people because Cain has a wife and his sons married some women who were not mentioned before.

    Forthermore, one of the brothers kills the other and is then Banished into the wilderness.

    Perhaps this is the point where the theory of evolution and the Bible agree, and humans do indeed descend from apes.

      I asked my Catechism teacher and she said
      “they did have sisters, they just weren’t documented because nobody cared back then” (misogyny in the Bible, who could have guessed?)
      “the inbreeding is why we’re no longer the image of God” (well damn) and “we didn’t have diversity before the Tower of Babel” (oh no, if only we didn’t dare challenge God, we could have prevented all those pesky different languages and cultures).

      Can you just admit that the Bible is full of nonsense rather than justifying it with downright batshit reasoning?

    I got thrown out of Confirmation class when I asked about that, luckily my parents laughed and said I should keep asking questions.
