[[When I first learned of DNA and then what DNA actually demonstrates I knew then there was NO way all of humanity could have come from only two people.]]
Cains WifeWho Was She?
“Many skeptics have claimed that for Cain to find a wife, there must have been other races of people on the earth who were not descendants of Adam and Eve. To many people, this question is a stumbling block to accepting the creation account of Genesis and its record of only one man and woman at the beginning of history. Defenders of the gospel must be able to show that all human beings are descendants of one man and one woman (Adam and Eve) because only descendants of Adam and Eve can be saved. Thus, believers need to be able to account for Cains wife and show clearly she was a descendant of Adam and Eve.
In order to answer this question of where Cain got his wife, we first need to cover some background information concerning the meaning of the gospel.

Adam lived 930 years and no doubt had many many children. In the beginning, the Dna was pure, and the offspring of close relatives were not subject to DNA degredation like we are today which would result in degraded offspring- the taboo against marrying cloe relatives was not in place when the DNA was pure
What makes you think that DNA could not have all come from two original people?
Cain left the area and went 'East' into the land of 'Nod' and found a wife there. Now in Genesis 4:14 Cain says .."Behold, Thou (the Lord) has driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from Thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that *EVERY ONE* that findeth me shall slay me." Now there had to be people already in the land of Nod not of the Adam and Eve for Cain to have found a wife.

Genesis 1:26 says this the sixth day was the first creation of 'man'/'woman' in flesh.... God said His creation was gooood. It is NOT a mutation or fluke or deterioration of the DNA to see the many peoples of the globe. God says that ALLLL souls belong to him and that means alllll of us no matter what race we come in this flesh age.

This is an ugly accusation against the Heavenly father that his children's skin colors are result of DNA degradations.
