From what I learned Adam and Eve had many children. We just hear about the squable between two of them because it involved murder. At that time the genetic code was pure. Nowadays when we marry or have incest and a child is born there is a much higher risk that the infant will have some sort of problem because our genetic codes have mutated. For example I know of a man who's parents are 1st or 2nd cousins (can't remember which) He is now in his 40's anyway. He is a hemophiliac because both his parents carried that code but it was recessive. When they mated with each other that code became dominant in their child.
From what I understand , incest was not made taboo until later in the Bible/history because they discovered that children of siblings or close relatives ended up in more deaths/deformities. Could be a theory anyway.
