Just a bit of advise...it's never a good idea to argue Scripture. We search Scripture to gain understanding into the character of God. To get to know Him and have a deeper relationship with him.

This should always be our first and foremost desire in searching Scripture....for God to reveal His truth and lead us into wisdom and understanding by the power of His Holy Spirit.

If a matter comes to your attention that does not seem right...seek what God would reveal to you through His word.

It's always better to search the Scripture to draw near to God as He will reveal His word to you.

If your heart is about edifying or correcting a brother or sister in love that's terrific...but be very careful not to get into endless debate regarding Scripture.

God will reveal His wisdom and truth to everyone who seeks Him for His good will and as He purposes for each of His children.

Be blessed as you dive into His word...to draw near to Him and He to you!

I thought when Adam sinned the whole blood line is contaminated.

At the Fall sin was introdused...but not yet physically contaminating the gene pool...the blood line was severely contaminated in the days of Noah...this is when God was greatly grieved He made man and limited man's years to 120.

Read Genesis Chapter 6...and perhaps do a study regarding the Nephilim.

Noah's family was spared the flood because:

verse 9 - This is the genealogy of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect in his generations. Noah walked with God

If you don't have a study Bible you may want to checkout Blue Letter Bible online...or The Sword Project...awesome study tools

Again...I strongly encourage personal study. Don't rely too much on what you read in forums and on line.

Unfortunately...on line forums and websites can be quite difficult to properly discern if you're not well grounded in the Word...

God bless

Our Sunday School class had a similar discussion.
Adam was the first man and Eve was the first woman, but they weren't the only people God made.
Good luck with your quest and GBU

My Bible says all people came from Adam.

Quoted with permission www.livingwaters.com:

"Where did Cain get his wife?"
Many ask this question thinking they’ve found a "mistake" in the Bible—that there must have been other people besides Adam and Eve. Scripture tells us that Adam is "the first man" (1 Corinthians 15:45); that there were no other humans when he was created, because God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone" (Genesis 2:18); and that Eve is "the mother of all living" (Genesis 3:20). Cain and Abel, then, must have married distant sisters. All of the first-generation siblings married each other in order to populate the earth. At that time there was no law against incest. But as the population grew large enough, and as the risk of genetic problems increased because of sin’s curse, God outlawed marriage between siblings.

Be very careful when saying the God is saying something.
When explaining a verse to someone, you better be sure that is what God is saying.
Because it is a terrible thing to say God has said when he has not said, and you will be held in account for it.
Secondly you can not seperate the old from the new testament, they are one word, God's word, in fact the old testament God gives us more info about the end of time which is the time which we are now living in, than he gives in the new testament, READ DAINEL :8 and :9 and many many old testament passages and books of the bibe.
He has already started seperating the wheats from the tares and this is the time when He is saving that great multitude spoken of in revolations.
And he has abandoned the churhes, and saten has begun to rule in the local congrogation. DAINIEL 8:23 And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.

DANIEL 8:11 Ye, he magnified himself even to the pince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and place of his sanctuary was cast down.
8:12 And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practiced and prospered.

And there is much more info about the time we are now living the end of time, all through the book of DANIEL and many many other old testament books.
This is the time when God is revealing the mysteries of his word the bible because He is at the very gate, and He's preparing this word for judgement, thats why the world has just exploded with so much more wickedness, people, judgement day is here and He will return shortly.
