For the Adam and Eve thing... a certain someone explained it as the humans not having that many flaws in their genetic makeup, with stuff starting to come up over time, so at first it didn't really affect things much. So if you consider the Adam and Eve myth to be true, that works.

But then again, even if it's not true, incest definitely was a thing in the past. Tribes were small, people often married their cousins because there wasn't really... anyone else. There are some really messed up family trees. :P

And let's be honest sometimes cousins can be quite attractive xD *gets shot*

As for Jesus, you probably mention that due to the fact that Jesus has no father. I'm not really sure of how to explain it without just saying it was God's work. I could say that maybe Mary was able to do parthenogenesis, but then again there's the genetic issue you mentioned. I could say that maybe she was artificially inseminated by an alien God somehow, or maybe God just... planted a fertilized egg in her womb.

Either way I don't know how to explain it.

No silly stories from my teacher for today. Instead I will tell you something that made me trully angry to the point where I wanted to punch someone.
OK so today, in a class (that wasn't religion), we had a debate about this topic and if religion helps us be better, if we must do religion classes in the school and if our teacher (yes we discussed about that) is ok to teach.
Naturally, I participated in this "debate" and was not only disappointed as hell, but people got on my nerves. First thing you need to know, in my class there is a girl that is particulary good at literature, and that kickstarted her in everything, no matter if she is good or not in the domain. She won some national award for litarature and now no teacher touches her, she is "by default" good at everything. ♥♥♥♥ like that. Well that particular girl is extremly religious and probably one of the only people who actually agree with our teacher. So of course in this debate she defended him, religion, what is taught in school and accused us of "getting our soul dirty" rejecting this. Of course I tried to reply, but every single time (I mean literrary) I tried to say something, other people just talked over me and "completed me" or just "guessed" what I was going to say so they proceeded to bring the counter-argument. For real? Respect means that when somebody is talking, you should shut up and listen, if you are not willing to listen then just go away, nobody will blame you for that, but talking over people? Not letting them finish their arguments? I admitted I was agnostic-atheistish and that suddenly made people take me less and less seriously. But what angered me further was that when SHE talked, everyone shut up. But not to me. I was a voice in the desert and of course it ended "quick" like every one sided argument because I didn't have a chance to talk.

Damnit, you didn't proove me wrong. You didn't give me the chance to talk. You didn't win, you didn't proove yourself smarter than me, nothing, you just talked over and when I was about to confront, you just yelled something and said "End of discussion". I had a few bunch of people telling me to calm down saying they agree with me and other ♥♥♥♥ during the break, since I didn't have the chance to talk at all. Then I and some other people got blamed that we "Do not accept other's vision and we reject equality". That was the point I wanted to punch the one who said that (it was a dumb girl, but still). After all this ♥♥♥♥, you came and say that I(!) do not accept other's opinions? For real?

Yeah in the end they "agreed" that "everyone should have an opinion"(god damn hypocrites) and that our teacher isn't that bad and he should stay. Hooray. On another note, religion is no longer obligatory from next year so if you want to do it, you must fill a special request (till now it was the other way round, you fill special request NOT to do it) and of course ♥♥♥♥♥ complained about how we need it. Go make religion in your church, I would want more chemestry or biology personally. Or history too.

Oh lawdy, I know how you feel. I've had multiple accounts like this, from schoolgirls to one of my sisters. And it's not just the girls who do that, my father does that a LOT. Gets on my nerves real fast.
Expect something cool here soon!
