Did The Creator intend at first for Adam and Eve to have children?
Upvote:2
God told Adam and Eve to "be fruitful and multiply." That's what he wanted them to do.
Adam and Eve being 'so innocent' had nothing to do with them being unable to follow through on what God told them to do.
"It seems to me that initially God didn't want billions of humans, just two." Of course he wanted more: he asked for more.
"Maybe before the fall, God designed mammals with a non-sexual multiplication..." There is no reason he would do that, and no indication that he did.
