Hi aceEcho. My answer is in no way preaching, but simply the outlook from a biblical point of view.
1) God has always been and always will be. Jesus said 'I am the alpha and the omega, the beginning and the end.'
2) If the Adam and Eve story is true then there must have been incest in the early days. If you read the bible you will find that God did not forbid incest until the days of Moses. This was because of diseases and such that could occur from incest at the time, and now, but not at the time of Adam and Eve, when mankind was more pure, healthier and lived longer.
3) Race can be explained from the story of the Tower of Babel. I won't go into detail but at this time God split all the people up so they could no longer understand each other or recognise each other.
*interesting fact - science has shown that we are all descended from one common mother. The bible calls her Eve, the scientists call her Lucy the ape, make up your own mind.
Hope this is an answer you were looking for, from a bible point of view :o)

Lol I wasn't preaching to you mate, I was answering your question. You asked a biblical question and got a biblical answer.
There are scientific explanations also, but they don't involve Adam and Eve, which is what you asked about.

Also... the idea of God is not a crazy one. Most people have believed in a God throughout history, it's the minority that don't. You're stuck with the choice of either God made everything or everything made itself, so make up your own mind. (and please dont criticise someone elses belief "lol some people")
;o)

It all comes down to this. You either believe or you don't. I believe in God. I also 100% respect the right for any of you to completely disagree with me. :-)

mmmmm,
This is hard one,
My own opinion is that the human race through time has ''needed'' to believe in something, has needed to believe that there is a better place or a ''higher'' person, IE god.
You can go back to the dawn of mankind, the people worshipped the sun moon and stars.
But as diamond says, ''You either believe or you don't'' forget about the church, forget about the money it makes, forget about all the conspiracy theories,
IF YOU NEED to believe, then so be it, faith is a powerful thing, if you believe you will go to heaven when you die, then who are we to call your belief into question.
My belief is, until recently i would mock anyone that prayed to the lord, i would look down on the church as a money making scam, but then i found my self on my knees, praying for help...?
so what does that make me, a hypocrite or a believer that did NOT understand...?
so in regards to your question, i just don't know.

If the two millenia long onslaught of the Judo Christian cult hadn't have ruined this planet and suppressed the truth from the majority of it's inhabitants I probably wouldn't feel the need to drink everyday and might have been capable of answering this question.

very profound trout.....
i am a total non believer but would never ever criticise or mock somebody for their beliefs.
on the other hand, i am a staunch believer in reincarnation and have in past lives been King Harold at the battle of Hastings, Champion the wonder horse and that fella who says "one time" in the fugees.
