Genesis 6:6?????
Revilonivek:
So ure saying that cain married a neanderthal, a native group of people from earth with limited brain iq unable to farm but is able to maintain cities where cain went to after he killed adam?? Not the same species as adam and eve who was cloned in the likeness and image of God. What abt those neanderthals. Are they unfit to be the sons of God. God created them in the first place. So no plan for them? Im trying to make sense of this genesis story. So adam and eve are special clones created in the image of God but not these neandrathals? God created everything and there are not anything he did not create. I did notice cities already exist during adam and eve's time but who are they if adam and eve were the first people?

Well I don't know if I'm allowed to do this and If I'm not, feel free to remove my post moderators but here is a quote from an outside source, on the scientific studies and understand of the human neandrethal relationship. If I can later, I will find where ray talks about the cain issue, as well as his reference of the "no humans to TILL the soil," and how he believes the emphasis is on the TILL the soil part, not the NO HUMANS part of the verse.
"Anthropologists have long speculated that early humans may have mated with Neanderthals, but the latest study provides the strongest evidence so far, suggesting that such encounters took place around 60,000 years ago in the Fertile Crescent region of the Middle East"

It's late, i'm tired so Ill do my best to hunt down where ray talks about these aspects of Genesis.
Again, if i'm crossing the line here with outside sources and what not, moderators feel free to edit my post and perhaps kat could be so kind as to find where ray talks about the days of creation, all the information about genesis that ray provides and the issue of cain's wife. I know ray talks about that as well in his explanation or understanding of genesis. If not I will try and get you that ASAP!
God bless!

Excellent information, glad they are publishing this information. Its been proven. They also had a show abt this on PBS a while back.
The question remains- with the information we know. Why did the genesis story mislead us into thinking that Adam and Eve were the first people God created after creating earth? When it's evident in both the bible and history that the first humanoid species existed before the early humans. They did cave paintings, communicated in many ways, believed in gods, and had spiritual rituals, ran cities, created tools of different kinds, created boats, hunted and fished. Lived in tribes, did things we would do. I would agree that the early humans were the first ones to farm since they were taught by God how to till the soil. Maybe important details were taken out of genesis to fit someone's doctrine because it's already clear in Genesis that cities exist during Adam's time.
Second question, does God regard the neandrathals as part of his plan for mankind or just the early humans?
It is also known that neandrathals and early humans inter-breeded as well?
Let me know?
Thanks.

Why assume the story in Genesis misleads us? Why assume 'something was taken out' of the Scripture?
If we've been blind, it's because somebody blinded us. They've asked us to read the words, but held their hands over our eyes and told us what was there. Traditions of men, and theological assumptions. It's all there in black and white. When we stop not seeing, we'll see.
I want to be careful not to create a NEW 'tradition of man and theological assumption'. I'd hate to get their hands off my eyes, just to replace them with my own hands.
Revilonivek:
You're right. I just have to br patient and
God will reveal. I don't want to be biased and want to maintain a an open mind. Its just that its the impression I get but then again, it can even take years and an open mind to see the truth like it took ray a long time and alot of mediating to come to the eye opening truth on his website. and its not something that happens when u want it to.
Im just wanting to know if anyone has the answers I seek. If not. Ill keep seeking.
