Like I said...they weren't the only ones around! Adam and Eve went on to 
have many, many more children and according to the Bible some people 
lived hundreds of years (750 years wasn't uncommon). So they must have 
married on of thei sisters. Also it is mentioned that some os the angles 
from heaven like the women on earth so they took the form of a human male 
and got some women pregnant, well those children who were fathered by 
angels ended up being giants.
