What would you say if you could write a letter to God?

Adam and Eve lived for ages.
They probably had loads of children, it's just because you don't hear about many of them because non of them went around slaughtering their siblings or anything.

He didn't - he married a women from an Eastern village I think. Might have to do a bit of research on this.

Cain married his sister.
It wasn't really a forbidden thing back then.

Of course there was. Who do you think Cain married? Adam and Eve cannot have been the first people.

There wasn't any such people.
That's the point, you can't believe in the Bible and the theory of evolution.
If you believe in evolution, you could simply say that, but if you believe in the Bible, my explanation is the key. If you get my very rough drift.

So what was happening to the people who were around before the story of Adam and Eve?

Basically, it's come to my attention that 'Hell' (in a sense) doesn't actually exist, and it says no where in the bible that it does.
It's down to the word 'Gehenna' being translated incorrectly. Jesus spoke about Gehenna being the place that you went when you died.
Now, many have interpreted Gehenna as being a feiry place of torment that the souls of bad people went when they died.
However, in reality, Gehenna was simply the name for a large pit outside of Jerusalem, that the people of the city would throw all dead ones. It was kept burning at all times.
Yeah.

'The valley of Hinnom, near Jerusalem, where some of the Israelites sacrificed their children to Moloch, which, on this account, was afterward regarded as a place of abomination, and made a receptacle for all the refuse of the city, perpetual fires being kept up in order to prevent pestilential effluvia. In the New Testament the name is transferred, by an easy metaphor, to Hell.'

Because after Adam ate of the fruit of the true of knowledge of good and bad, he became sinful, and not perfect.
Death was a punishment for that sin, after all, he ddi go directly against what god wanted them to do.
When he had children, he also passed this sin onto them, and so right down to this day, we have to same faults Adam did, death, disease, whatever.
I think.

I'm still tried.

Yes, but there are millions of millions of stars and planets, you would imagine that at least a few of these developed the capacity for life in some way or another.
