Of course, their sons, daughters, cousins intermarried.
As time went by, the races obviously selected within themselves who to marry (as they mostly do today).
This selection weakened available genetic diversity, and the further compressing of the pool continued by people groups' language and congregating in areas removed from broader interaction.
To the point where inbreeding is a danger to people now-
As witnessed by the Muslim's acceptance to marrying first cousins and lowering Muslim aggregate IQs.
Why Would an omniscient god think that incest would work, twice.
Remember, it killed everything off and started it all over with 8. All the same race, no?

The gene pool was nearly perfect with Adam and Eve, as time went on the pool became more corrupted, it was then that God told man that brothers and sisters should no longer marry. The gene pool must have been in very good shape for some time, the people live very long lives.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Oh, that explanation is in the bible? Where, by chance?

Sorry I can't join you in this what-if fantasy but fundamentalist thinking hurts my brain.

Doh, I misread your initial post, dang you brain
It's more of a gene puddle tbh

You think humans just appeared out of nowhere for no reason? You think the human eye just came into existence fully formed? That's ridiculous evolution lovers!
They appeared out of nowhere by a creepy old man doing magic on some dirt and a bone. Get some sense.
What did you say? Why didn't God just make the amount of people he actually wanted rather than wait around for them to reproduce? Why? It's obvious! If he did that, he wouldn't get to watch a bunch of dudes fucking their sisters!

GC Worryingly, GC really believes this horseshit that he writes. As was suggested earlier GC, I dare you to read some real science and try to smash down that (substantial) wall of delusion that was constructed in your childhood.

I'm not a literalist, but God did tell Adam and Eve to "be fruitful and multiply", so their only choice was incest. The gene pool would have had to be much better than nowadays. Once it became harmful, it would make sense to outlaw it.
