Adam and Eve's children a couple?

[flint]

if (according to the bible) adam and eve were the first people on earth, then supposing they had a boy and a girl, that would mean to continue the human race incest would have to have happend right? That seems a bit odd for a religion to say how the human race was started doesnt it?

So could I assume that you would believe in the existence of albino assassin monks for protection of the secret, the propensity for nocturnal basement sexual rituals for the continuance of the �royal bloodline� and that the �royal� bloodline still exists today? Or are you just picking the bits from Dan Brown that you might believe are true?

Why not? That's exactly what you do with the bible.

Hallelujah.

As I said, I am not saying that what I wrote is right, just a possible answer to the original question. Is it possible to answer a biblical queation outside of biblical context?

"Is it possible to answer a biblical question outside of biblical context?"

Mmmm. For a non-believer, yes, but for someone who purports to be a believer, no, because surely that would make a mockery of god's word.
