If we accept whatever author of book of Genesis wrote as fact then we will also have to accept that Cain was their first born and he was a male. The second child Abel too was a male. After Cain had killed Abel they had another child whom they named Him Seth. How the generation propagated is another question.

Yes, sarath this is one question which has bugged the believers from the beginning. We must realize that it was only Adam and Eve whom God had created in his own image and with his own hand. He did not do so for other creatures. Therefore, if we have to also believe in the concept of evolution then there were other creatures in semblance of human, whom God had not created with his own hands. They were inferior to Humans. Bible also says there were beautiful women among them and descendant of Adam of Eve married them and this is how the world propagated ahead.

According to the Bible. Adam and Eve first born child is a boy named Cain. It was followed by another child, also a boy named Abel. You can see this in the book of Genesis.

I forgot to include they have a sister named Seth. Cain married Seth and had kids. In short, Cain married his sister.

If you do a thorough research on this you will find that when the bible was written as it is today, there were many things that they decided not to put in the book... The human theory, brings human mistakes. Those that wrote it back in its time didn't have free thinking men and women, they were in control of what was to be learned. That has all changed and now TRUTH needs to be revealed regardless of who or what didn't want us the common man to know..
There are scriptures that say Eve was the second woman created that the first was to independent, was as strong in life as adam, so Eve was then created. There are many things that we have proof of, just not allowed to see or read it for our self. Someday that will all be known..
myself I have always felt that any and all bibles have human decisions in how it was written.... think telephone theory, that is how the books were combined to become what is read today. None of them are Total Truth in what Truth is defined as.

According to the bible, Cain is their first child.
Cain is a man. If you'll read through the chapters of Genesis, you will see that he later had a wife so that make him a man.

In scientific way Adam and Eve doesn't exist since there's no proof of their body's so there's no awnser "acceptable" to your question.

We didn't evolve from Adam and Eve. Adam and Eve are two fictitious characters and the creation stories are a myth. We all evolved from single-celled organisms, over billions of years.
