Outer Darkness ( 2nd Dimension ): Before the creation of man, Satan arranges some extraterrestrials to vist Earth and genetically engineer different species of primates and produce humans. Then these humans breed and populate this outer darkness.

Islam teaches us, that Adam (a.s) and Eve (a.s.) had (as far as I remember) 30 pair of twins as sons and daughters. Each twin pair mated with another one.
At that time incest was allowed by God so they can spread, but later on it was forbidden.

There were others on earth. This is why Cain was afraid when he was cast out into exile. He spoke of his fear of being harmed or killed by someone else. God didn't create just Adam and Eve. They were just the first. He created others, they just didn't inhabit the Garden of Eden. The book of Enoch tells of the watchers, seemingly a choir of angels that choose to come down and interbreed with human women, thus spawning giants. This corruption of the human bloodline is why I believe God chose to execute the flood. Perhaps these new hybrid blaspemous bloodlines were so widespread there wasn't much purity in the generations following Adam anymore. Perhaps God favored Noah because him and his family were still carrying an untainted bloodline.

Ah, so god created angels so that their dna is compatible with human dna? Can they also mate with each other and produce offspring? If not, why did god give them the ability to reproduce?
And, if god knew that the people he saved were untainted, how did giants appear again after the flood? If the "angels" mated with humans again after the flood, then the flood served no purpose because it all happened again. Wouldn't god have known that ahead of time? Seems the best way to settle this would be to get rid of the angels instead???

DNA is sciences way to define one of God's mechanisms. If we are produced in God's likeness and image, then it is reasonable to think that we are like our God, just not as evolved.
I'm not sure what you are referring to by "how did giants appear again after the flood?" If you were an angel and saw what the punishment for the watchers were, would you give it a shot? Have you read the book of Enoch?
Get rid of all the angels...that makes no sense. He punished those that chose to desecrate. His punishment was severe. If we had public hangings or public firing squauds that severly dealt with criminals, I'll guarantee you crime would drop exponentially. Likewise, if we had the ability to punish to the extent that God does, I'll bet crime would dissappear. We can be forgiven, because we must rely on faith. Angels know God, therefore, they are treated much more harshly.

Maerth asserted that the eating of brain produces an aphrodisiac effect (presumably due to the vast amount of hormones in it), and that this initially caused apes to become addicted to them, organizing brain hunts wherein the males of another tribe were eaten and the females raped in a frenzy of brain-induced sex and violence.[1]
However, this diet also inadvertently increased brain size and intelligence[2] while triggering the loss both of body hair[3] and of our innate psychic abilities[4].
Thus man gradually came into being, remaining cannibalistic until 50,000 years ago.[5] Modern humans, alienated from their surroundings now that they've no telepathic contact with nature and each other as animals do[6], suffering from a distorted sexuality resulting from hormonal imbalances[7], and driven insane from the constant pressure of their unnaturally large brains pressing on the inside of their skulls[8], are inevitably destroying themselves with pollution, overpopulation[9], racial integration[10] and ultimately, nuclear war.
He foresees a return to cannibalism in the near future[11], and suggests that the reader should drop out of society[12], embrace a vegetarian diet, steep himself in the wisdom of the East[13] and perhaps employ various wooden frames and wire devices to alter the shape of his skull as some ancient cultures did, thus relieving the pressure on the brain and partially restoring psychic powers.[14]

just to present the big picture overview---
the 6 'days' of Genesis were each 250,000,000 years long = which is one rotation around the galactic center..... Adam-Eve were engineered in this present Biblical 'Day', certainly before or during the last ice-age which ended some 14,000 years ago...
the 5 previous epochs (biblical days of creation) where animals, plants, and even several branches of humans, all evolved over 1.5 billion years
(5 orbits around the galactic center=5 biblical creation 'days')
use your noodle to fit in the Genesis account, that was garnered from cultural myth over the eons, and fill in the rest of the creation story
