Adam and Eve probably weren't the only family around. Just think how Cain was looked down upon by the rest of society when he was banished for killing his brother. I mean, if Adam and Eve were the only parents, what society would there be to look down upon him? To that end, these people were something of a living metaphor, and it can be argued that God was populating the Earth in several places all at once. It really sort of gives credibility to the idea that evolution fits into creationism. Who's to say that the first 7 days didn't represent 7 periods of time? They might've. Ever heard the expression "this day and age"?
