@TheCASSMAN777 it's well established how language developed.

two creatures are certainly not enough to propagate a healthy species.

To sum up, God is stupid! In my opinion if there was a creator of EVERYTHING he could not make such basics mistakes, religion's notion of God offends my mind.

@TheCASSMAN777 "Clutching at straws" comes to mind.

@Kyledonovanful That is a very good question. I don't know the exact reason, however according to many apologists, the reason is because back in Adam and Eve's time their DNA had a lot less holes and mistakes than human DNA today. Because of all the mistakes in the DNA we have today, close family members cant reproduce. And for the different races I don't know either. But many apologists claim that they originated after the Tower of Babel when God created different languages.

@Kyledonovanful I don't understand what your question is. When you ask why the bible has been rewritten, what exactly did you mean? Are you asking why there are so many different translations of the bible, like the King James, New King James, NIV, ESV, ect.?

@TheCASSMAN777 also is we are all decendent from adam and eve lets me ask you this in current days if someone were to commit incest the baby would then have a birth defect but since only two people populated the earth how is it possible that we all dont have birth defects. Also how could there be different colors and races if we were infact sons and daughters of adam and eve

[Kyledonovanful]

@TheCASSMAN777 Cassman now take into perspective how many times the bible was rewritten and take into concept that these questions were already asked so the bible was rewritten to answer those questions and are infact lies to begin with.

@matmasters3 atheist is a religion after all loll they always fight like christian and muslim do all the time over there better way of thinking ... and if you dont believe in those non sence you dont belong to a group but atheist always refer to it as a group of people that are more aware of the real thing but they fight with non sence people hahaha .. for my part i dont realy believe anything but i am not a part of any group ...

[matmasters3]

im an atheist. listen to my logic (im not being sarcastic i know it sounds that way but im not) Christians beleave going against god is a sin before eating the fruit of the tree humans were incapable of sin. god said dont eat the fruit they ate the fruit. they sinned before being able to effectively sin. Atheist^

@TheCASSMAN777 The serpent was there so that he would tempt Adam and Eve to sin, and the reason is the same: for God's glory in punishing and forgiving sinners (Romans 9:11-23). The angel was sent to guard the tree of life because Adam and Eve spiritually died in sin (Genesis 3:3). Because of their sin this is why we are born spiritually dead in trespasses and sin (Ephesians 2:1).
