Therefore, Cain married one of his sisters. How's that for the "sanctity of marriage".

Apparently it wasn't gross at the beginning of the human race when there were no others to be fruitful and multiply with. And jftr, God had not prohibited it at that point in time.
Keep railing against the goads, pal.

If the decorations and the gift giving don't make sense to you, how have you traditionally celebrated Christmas?
Since I'm just luke-warm, I go with the whole Santa thing. Actually, we used to sing "Happy Birthday, Dear Jesus" when the kids were little but it kinda fell away as the kids got older.

Well, Cain's wife came from the land of Nod. I just never understood why there was no mention of the lands of Wynken or Blynken. What made Nod so special anyway?

I sure am glad about that Nod and Other people admittance cause if your crazy headed sister over thinks the whole thing started in a incest orgy, that's just weird. Cute reference to the Dutch though!

Keep railing against the goads, pal. A livestock reference? You christians consider yourselves livestock where barnyard tools are necessary to direct you? Interesting!  Hows that working out for you?

Hows that working out for you? Infinitely better than ending up as tinder.
