The rules are in place to prevent genetic problems from getting bigger.
No. Not from "getting bigger". Rather just "from occurring".
I believe Adam and Eve were created without genetic defects
You can believe whatever you wish, it won't make it true or sensible.
The problem with incest is the lack of genetic diversity. It doesn't matter how "genetically perfect" (whatever the heck that means) the single breeding pair is. The lack of genetic diversity IS going to cause problems.
And in a population of just 2, that problem is going to be so big that extinction will be pretty much inevitable.
In general, population sizes lower then 200 are no longer considered viable.
And upwards of just 200 is still very problematic.
reducing the chance of any problem until the Adamic race started to mix with other races.
That makes zero sense and exhibits deep rooted ignorance of how genetics actually work and what "genetic diversity" is all about.
