Redundant knowledge!!!

Actually if every man and woman was given the same opportunity as Adam and Eve you could potentially live forever until you sinned. According to the bible, death was brought into the world for their sin, not just for them but for all of humanity. The punishment meted out to them didn't apply only to them but to all of their descendants as well. That isn't justice. Also if you're going to say we are created with a sinful nature it raises the question, why did God create us with that nature and why go through the motions with the garden of Eden when you already know what the outcome is going to be?

It's a miracle.

The question is, what is more likely to be true? That the miracle claims of the bible really happened or that they are ancient myths?

That which is more likely is not necessarily that which is true.

I'll take ancient myths for $1000, Pat.
