God created the heavens and the earth.
In the image of God, He created them (male and female).
But Then:There were no people to cultivate the land.
And for that purpose, He formed a man from the dust of the ground.
After much thought:He decided it was not good for man to be alone.
Thus, the Lord God made a helper that was just right for man.

However:Man's "parents" would not allow their child(ren) to be destroyed ... even by a God fearing he would live forever.
