The Theory of Evolution states that there WAS no one man, but a wide population that managed to inherit that last mutated gene that makes MEN different from APES.

So how is you explain Genesis 4:17? Where did Cain's wife come from and who were the people that lived in city that Cain built?

It sounds to me like there were many "men" in Adam's day, but the Bible chooses to talk only about him.

The universe is the creation of God, and it is studied by scientists. The Bible is the word of God, and it is studied by religions of various sorts. By definition, there can be no conflict between the creation of God and the Word of God. There can only be conflicts between the people who study each one.

When the subject is salvation, I read the Bible. When the subject is the creation itself, I study it, and I see Evolution all over the place.

Elsie, you're wrong to fight against a science that has nothing to do with salvation. In the end, your fight will only damage the faith that you believe you're helping.

Genesis 4
 16.  So Cain went out from the LORD's presence and lived in the land of Nod,  east of Eden.
 17.  Cain lay with his wife, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Enoch. Cain was then building a city, and he named it after his son Enoch.


So how is you explain Genesis 4:17?
 
Why do I have to?
 
 
It appears she was his sister.  (It's not uncommon to find this in the Bible.)

..who were the people that lived in city that Cain built? 
His descendants?  Look who he named it after.....


...in the end your fight will only damage the faith that you believe you're helping.
 
 
Oh? How?
