If God can create people out of the clay of the earth, in effect, out of thin air, why then does He need humans to reproduce through sex?

It seems to me if he's so omnipotent to just create people on a whim then he doesn't need us to reproduce through sex.

Enoch was so beloved by god that God took him into heaven without dying.

Why the special privilege, and more importantly, why are we required to die to get into heaven when it is clearly shown that you do not need to die to enter heaven?

I thought it was Elijah who ascended to heaven on a fiery chariot? Did Enoch have a "get out of jail free" card too?

Sexual reproduction was only introduced after 'the fall'. Adam and Eve did not reproduce while in Paradise. It is not menioned whether they had sex.

Well, doing what he wants is a god's provilege. He doen't have to explain himself.

Yes, it was two different guys, and only those two, who pulled the hat trick of life. Curious both their names start with "E".



Then Jesus came along and cheated. It's like Enoch threw down his hand and said, "Ha! Royal Flush! In spades, yet!"

Then Jesus said, "Ha! Double-Royal Flush!" Whatever, Jesus.

Because fiction doesn't have to make sense.

Because this world wasn't actually made by God. It was Yog-Sothoth. Duh.

Because fiction doesn't have to make sense.Yes it does. Tom Clancy (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=Tom+Clancy+%22fiction+and+reality%22&aq=f&oq=&aqi=) said that the difference between fiction and reality is that fiction has to make sense. The Bible appears to be an exception though.
