 |
|
The ancient Hebrew book of Genesis's Garden of Eden could not have been on
earth. (in the material domain)
Simply, before Adam and Eve did sin, as choose to know evil, they were
both perfectly righteous and good and perfect righteousness has eternal life
and does not die, for as death begins by sin and perfect goodness has no evil
and death is evil and as they would NOT surely die if they obeyed God and as
Christ taught our attainment of perfect life by righteousness. Perfect life
without death is NOT possible in the material domain, and simple honesty will
agree it could not have been on earth. Eden reasons to have been in company
with the person and society of God in the 'Gossamar' domain, and it reasons
Christ acted to lead us back to our own true, original home with God.
I've written a 30 page essay titled 'Creation, Human Society, and Suffering',

You might want to work on the grammar a bit there, before you go off publishing.
That was quite difficult to read, and it isn't because the thought was complex.
Incidentally, if there was a fundamental change in the nature of Earth when sin
entered it (which there was), it blows your little theory right out of the
water. |

Of course, there's an even simpler explanation that doesn't require all
these mental gymnastics and special pleading. Here's the explanation:
it's just a story! |
