What is the problem? More than likely, the siblings procreated, while Adam procreated with Eve.

You don't have an issue with having sex and a baby with your sister...?

Not a snarky question, not rhetorical, and not intended to be argumentative. I don't have the time for extensive research on the topic, and it is one that has been an item of curiosity (my own and others) over the years. Were other ("human like") species here first?

What you're referring to is the "Nephilim". The Bible has little to say about these giants of the land. However, if you go to the The Book of Enoch from The Apocrypha, you might find it an interesting read....

You are conflating two different definitions. ![Frustration](http://www.paceadvantage.com/forum/images/smilies/45.gif) ![Frustration](http://www.paceadvantage.com/forum/images/smilies/45.gif) ![Frustration](http://www.paceadvantage.com/forum/images/smilies/45.gif) Inalienable by itself means basically irrevocable, cannot be taken away. The second definition relates to the term inalienable rights, this definition takes into the account of natural law and not laws or customs of man.

Darwin made his voyage on the Beagle from 1831 to 1836. Mendel was born in 1822. He was 14 when Darwin came back with his ideas on natural selection.
Darwin did do experiments similar to Mendel, but his experiments were essentially a failure, although much of that could have been a design flaw. It is probably more accurate to say Mendel took off from the point Darwin stopped.

Now you are saying that there are two different definitions. Since when?
Also, define natural law. Is that different from God's law?

So it would seem according to the Bible there was some sort of evolution and inter-breeding. However, the Bible makes it clear Adam's, and his line still is separate and distinct from the other beings lineage, through Adam's son Seth.
That is about all I can say.
BTW I am still waiting for boxcar to enlighten us about who these other beings were.

Thanks, that is one of the areas I remember. Unusual that more is not made of this (other than conjecture, some of it more than a little wild). I think more than a few are also curious how all that ancestry stuff came about, given the rather slim pickings in breeding stock early on. That is, how--exactly--did the A-E lineage progress without interbreeding with the (supposedly more primitive genetically) locals of the time?
I remember there was some sort of convoluted rationalization of how it all came about, but as I said, it has been awhile since I studied it, and I am a bit foggy on the exact details/explanation of how the A-E lineage progressed (apparently without additional genetic material).

Thanks, I will. I remember the term "giants" was used in connection with (at least some of) the others. I will read up on it as soon as I have a bit more time.

I think if you dig a bit you will find that most of the mandates forbidding such originated to avoid families consolidating power/holdings rather than some morality issue.

Are you serious? I spelled it out. Like you say I can explain it to you, but I cannot understand it for you.
