Because it was the origin story of their tribe. It got retroconned to be of the entire human species. You can even see the stitches. Cain is worried about being banished from his tribe because other people will attack him. There are no other people so who would attack him? As you pointed out who did Seth mate with?
Back in the day every little tribe had their own god and their own story of how they got there.
Lmao Christians are following some random tribes pagen god
If I had a time machine I would love to grab some ancient Hebrew storyteller and show him the utter chaos he is going to unleash. Oh you thought you were just going to tell some stories to kids about Adam for a few shekles? Check this out. Entire wars have been fought over this.
Imagine the horror of knowing that because you took a breath in your story, it became a pause when written down, which changed the meaning of a verse, which changed another verse, which caused a movement, which caused a counter-movement. And a million people died or were tortured.
Feels like a shittier wheel of time. They broke the world and now we all had to live through an age of madness feeling ignorant of ancient wonders as New cults are born and repeat the madness
In the end, everything considered, yes.
And it wouldn't be the last pagan god or rite they adopted. What do you think where Beelzebub comes from? Or Moloch? Or even JHWH?
