In those early chapters of Genesis, only the important people to the story were named and mentioned. IOW, certainly Adam and Eve had other children to include both males and females. They were told to populate the Earth. We must assume that they know how to do such and that they regularly took part in the activities that would result in the Earth being populated, probably beginning on that 1st Friday evening. If we believe that Adam lived some 900 + years, we should assume that he had many years of child-making and therefore fathered many sons and daughters. Yes, that leaves the sons of Adam and Eve marrying their sisters. So, be it. That is just as how it probably was.

I predict that the nations that run the Space Station will some day decide that it is no longer useful and at that time will take steps to destroy it. However, I do not base my thinking on the Bible.

Yes I have seen the chemistry! But so far haven't seen any hand holding. errr maybe.. I missed it!

Hi again! I believe I understand what you have been saying. I struggle with things that I see in myself. My circumstances haven't changed much over decades. My health. My weaknesses. My world. I have come to the conclusion I will no longer hold God hostage to what I think He should be doing in the world or in my life. I will not hold God hostage for things other people think where I should be at now also . He calls Himself Meek and Lowly at heart. He has shown Himself Selfless. A Servant God. I hang onto these things. It helps me in the here and now.

HCH, if you live long enough, I predict that sooner or later you will get it right. As you acknowledge, you have a series of incorrect predictions. Each time you have revised your prediction to point to another time and event. You can clearly continue to do this. Eventually there will be the 2nd Advent and a last U.S. President. If you live long enough you will have been correct as to the last President. However, such will not prove you are correct as to what the Bible teaches. The fact that one is correct on something does not mean that such is taught by the Bible. I might say that a White Dwarf is the product of a Main Sequence Star and I might be correct. But, that would not mean that I would be correct if I said that the Bible taught that.

Albert Wong is the now deceased Army veteran associated with the incident at the Yountville Veteran's Home. The news media has described him as a highly decorated veteran. My understanding is that he was awarded the Good Conduct Medal and the Army Commendation Medal. If you want to see the official meaning for those awards, you can look them up on the Internet. I will give you my unofficial meaning: Army Good Conduct Medal: This is generally awarded to certain enlisted persons who did their job well and did not get into any trouble during the time period involved, which is often three (3) years but may be less. Army Commendation Medal: This is awarded to certain members of the military who have served in combat in a manner that was above that of the average and/or whose achievement/service meritorious. NOTE: It also may be awarded for service not in combat. If I were to summarize, I would say that Albert Wong was a combat veteran who served his country at a level that was above that of the average. However, I would not be able to say that he was a highly decorated veteran. I would restrict such a description to those who have received either the Meritorious Service Medal, or the Legion of Merit, (I have not decided which.) or higher. Others would restrict such to those who have received the Silver Star, or higher. You can look all of them up, and more if you wish.
