Cain, when he killed Abel.

correct. And yes, I care too. The good news is that Reveal goes on the "ineligeable" list. lol

For the biblical record: Cain killed Abel, leaving only himself, Adam and Eve.

Reveal, pick out a prize and let me know.

More quizzes soon, I think.

I look at one other thread then Bam! theres a post and an answer. And if anyone cares reveal is correct.

He's mostly correct.
Cain does kill Abel in Genesis 4:8, and thus kills 1/4 of the NAMED population of Earth.

However, why then does Genesis 4:15-17 say " But the LORD said to him, "Not so; if anyone kills Cain, he will suffer vengeance seven times over." Then the LORD put a mark on Cain so that no one who found him would kill him.

And of course in Genesis 4:17 we see "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."

Clearly there were other people of some sort on the planet. Cain's wife came from somewhere. And why would Cain need a mark to keep him alive if the only other people around were Mom & Dad?

Woot! I got to use my Bible degree twice in one day! :D

Hmm... the bible has inconsistencies and contradictions? No way!

In anycase, keep in mind that the "mark" that is put on cain could also be for ANIMALS not to kill him. Animals talked back then remember.

Actually, at that point, only the Serpent spoke, and he was more than an animal according to the story.
No way did all those little lambs that Abel was sacrificing to please God talk. ;)

And just because other people weren't mentioned in a specific tale doesn't mean they didn't exist. Radagast the Brown isn't mentioned in The Hobbit, but we know he "existed" in Middle Earth because he's mentioned in other stories.
That's not an inconsistency or contradiction. It's just extra data that wasn't included.

However, this topic has all the dangers of straying toward religion, so I'll knock it off. :D
