According to Wiki, Cain means "of the evil one."<5> Some interpreters take this to mean that Cain was literally the son of the serpent in the Garden of Eden. A parallel idea can be found in Jewish tradition,<6> that the serpent (Hebrew nahash149 נ?... from the Garden of Eden was father to firstborn Cain.

Imagine how fundies wrap their heads around that one.

3. Fundies do not think about the interpretations of their religion enough
to dig in that far. They do not know these traditions.
