For all the fundamentalists out there, or anyone who takes the bible literally word for word, My question to you is, Who did Adam and Eve's children marry?
In addition, I have often wondered how Cain "founded" a city.
Genesis 4:17
17 Cain had sexual relations with his wife, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Enoch. Then Cain founded a city, which he named Enoch, after his son.

Well, the Bible doesn't tell us exactly who Cain married. She is just called 'his wife,' but if I had to make a guess I would say he married one of the females created on the 6th day.

They married each other. In the beginning, as the curse was just instated and the DNA uncompromised, there would have been no issues for close relations to marry and produce offspring.
As time wears on however, our DNA becomes more error-prone and hence the admonition against relations with close relatives at the time of Moses.

Yes, he founded a city -- comprised of 3 people to begin with. As they grew, so did the city.

There are several books that did not get included in the Bible as there was not enough proof of their authenticity. Included in these rejects are the 2 Books of Adam and Eve!
The story is... Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden 500 years after their creation. God provided them with a dwelling place in a rock cave called the Cave of Treasures. There they had 5 children, twins Cain and Luluwa, twins Abel and Aklia, and later a son Seth.
When Cain was 15 years old Satan came to him as a man in the field and tempted him, so he planned and killed Abel who was only 12 years old. Cain married his twin sister Luluwa; and Seth married Aklia. To read the details here's the link to the books:
