Religion / Re: Who Did Cain In The Bible Marry? by or3gon: 12:51pm On Jun 12, 2016
interesting... maybe this explanation could throw more light in answering your question.

CAIN’S WIFE
Genesis 4:17

An “old chestnut” of a question, and one which agnostics and hecklers are fond of hurling at defenders of the authority of the Bible is, “Where did Cain get his wife?” To many who are not enemies of the Faith, such a question may cause an unnecessary anxiety. As Adam and Eve were the first human pair on earth, and by natural generation had three sons who are named—Cain, Abel, Seth—and there is no mention of any named daughters—it does seem as if there is a problem in knowing where the female came from whom Cain made his wife. In the genealogy of Adam, as the natural head of the human race, we are told that “Adam begat sons and daughters” (Genesis 5:4). How many sons there were, apart from the three named ones, and how many daughters were born to Eve we are not told. Thus, because they lived long before the Sinaitic Laws were given, there was no moral difficulty involved in the marriage of near relatives. With Cain, the course was obviously a necessary one as it was with his brothers—they married their sisters. As we have already seen, Abraham married his own half-sister, Sarah.


After the birth of Seth, Adam lived for another 800 years, and died at the age of 930. When Eve died we are not told, but if she lived as long as her husband, and she was able to continue procreation through the centuries, then the family of earth’s first pair must have been large indeed. The register of births and deaths in Genesis 5 is an instructive record of remarkable longevity. The name of the earliest patriarchs are given, and the long years each of them lived upon the earth. If you add together the years that each one lived, you will find that their united lives cover a long period indeed. Enoch lived for the shortest period, 365 years—a year for every day of our normal year; while Methuselah lived the longest period of any known man, namely 969 years—31 years short of a millennium. Adam lived for over one hundred years after the birth of Methuselah, and the latter would have been over 300 years old when his grandson, Noah, was born. There is little room for doubt that Enoch, the seventh from Adam, had the privilege of conversing with earth’s first man. By the end of the first two millenniums the population of the earth through direct intermarriage must have been enormous.


As there may have been a lapse of many, many years before Cain’s marriage, during such a period—130 years between the birth of Cain and Seth, the substitute for slain Abel—some of the unnamed sons and daughters of Adam and Eve were likely born. As there were no other humans on earth apart from their descendants, Cain, attracted to one of his sisters, took her to wife. Whoever the sister was who chose to go into banishment with her branded brother, she deserves credit for her willingness to share Cain’s curse and wanderings. It is significant that they called their first child Enoch, which means “dedicated,” and may suggest a change in Cain’s character. The word is akin to “train” as found in the phrase, “Train up a child” (Proverbs 22:6), and is also used in the dedication of a new house (Deuteronomy 20:5). Cain called the city he built after the name of his son “Enoch,” or “dedicated,” and, as Ellicott

for anyone who cares to know more about Idi Amin, Google is your friend, this link will tell you more;
Idi Amin Dada (/ˈiːdi ɑːˈmiːn/; c. 1923–28 – 16 August 2003) was the third President of Uganda, ruling from 1971 to 1979. Amin joined the British colonial regiment, the King's African Rifles, in 1946, serving in Kenya and Uganda. Eventually, Amin held the rank of major general in the post-colonial Ugandan Army, and became its commander before seizing power in the military coup of January 1971, deposing Milton Obote. He later promoted himself to field marshal while he was the head of state.

Amin's rule was characterized by human rights abuses, political repression, ethnic persecution, extrajudicial killings, nepotism, corruption, and gross economic mismanagement. The number of people killed as a result of his regime is estimated by international observers and human rights groups to range from 100,000 to 500,000...

Nope, your cousin is either your niece (female) or nephew (male).


Cousin sister or cousin brother is Nigerian English
cousin
ˈkʌz(ə)n/
noun
a child of one's uncle or aunt.

A cousin is a relative with whom a person shares one or more common ancestors. In the general sense, cousins are two or more generations away from any common ancestor, thus distinguishing a cousin from an ancestor, descendant, sibling, aunt, uncle, niece, or nephew.

Cousin is used for both brother and sister. Hence, it leads to confusion unless specified, and it needs an extra word/words. To avoid this, cousin brother (likewise, cousin sister) can be used. But... It's not just in Nigeria,

'Cousin brother' (likewise, cousin sister) is widely used in Andhra Pradesh and other states of India

Men want love as badly as women do. They just might not always be as obvious about it. But generally, they want the same thing: friendship, companionship, chemistry. So why is there so much confusion and miscommunication between the sexes?
Rules. Some have been handed down through the generations. Others are ones we "see" to be true. And, of course, there are the ones written from our personal history.
There are some universal rules applying to men that you probably could find inscribed on the walls of caves from long ago. They still ring true today:


Praise. Men adore women who shower them with adulation. Praise is like candy – good for everyone.

Nagging. Men hate it. Tell them once what you want. You have a 50-50 chance it will be done. Tell them more than that within a 24-hour period and it's called nagging. Complain to your mother. Give him dirty looks. Close the kitchen and the bedroom. But whatever you do, don't nag.

Crying. Men really hate it. They have no defense. You finally get him to have a serious talk and you start crying because you don't like how it's going. Well, girlfriend, you killed that one. Not only is the discussion over, but you put him in a lose-lose situation. If he ignores your emotions, he's insensitive. Finish the talk, then cry to the dog. Or a friend.

Food. His mother knew the way to his heart. And if she didn't, here's your opportunity. Men love to eat. And be served. If you like to cook, you lucked out on this one. If you don't, you're a dummy if you can't find takeout that will look, taste and smell like homemade.

Action Jacksons. Men either love to be on the move or watch other men move, mostly on TV or at a stadium. Either way, they need it. And they'll love you for it if you don't complain about it. He has high respect for a woman who knows the importance of giving him space when he needs it.

Śex. It's good for both of you. It keeps the connection and relieves stress and tension. He'll be putty in your hands. Cook a meal for him after and he'll be so happy he might even cry.

Relinquish the need for control. Worse than anything, a man hates when a woman is constantly trying to control every situation. It's emasculating and it's degrading, both to you and him. You're not very fun or pretty when you're controlling. Until you get a grip on your fears or whatever is making you work this ugly trait, your relationship will suffer. Let him be the man. You're with him for a reason. He's capable. Let him prove it. He'll love you for it.

The power of touch. Touch heals. It's the unspoken word of forgiveness, love, warmth and compassion. We all can use a little. Men crave it. It makes them closer to you and they will touch back.

Love. And more love. Tell him. Hug him. Text him. Laugh with him. Leave love notes in the bathroom or in his car. All the time. You'll get it back in spades. It's contagious and it keeps the special spark glowing bright.
