I heard a couple of explanations for this. One was that Adam and Eve
had more children, and Cain was actually banging his sister, but that

there were no undesirable traits to worry about passing on to the next
generation.


I have a problem with the definition of "perfect" DNA there.....by
who's definition of perfect, considering the 50 billion combinations
of a DNA molecule. (?) And the fact that DNA is constantly evolving
in many species.

And you still have to explain the diversity of the subsequent human
race, as well as Genetic diseases - such as Tay-sachs or Cystic Fibrosis.
