The fact remains that you have yet to address my points other than to elaborate on your "connection" with your god. You have yet to explain the contradictions, only quoting more. Ten statements/quotes that contradict one does not make any less a contradiction.
See you have not found the apple yet, I'm betting you want. If you are referring to the below I've already explained that and you keep spouting out the same thing with no proof. Show me where scripture says that Adam and Eve were created to die and quit using that same verse that has nothing to do with how they were created, it is a verse that pertains to their condition after they ate the fruit. Why would God tell them that they would die if they ate from the tree if they were already going to die. Sin brought death into the creation, if they had not disobeyed death would not have entered God's creation and they would have lived forever or until someone sinned. They knew what death was and since they did what good would it have done for God to tell them they would die if they ate from the tree if they were going to die anyway. Why would satan have wanted to tempt them if they were going to die, why would he say that they wouldn't die for eating from the tree. By that statement satan proves that they would live forever. If this does not satisfy you then I'm not sure any amount of statements will.
KJV Genesis 3:22 Wrote:And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
It is quite obvious from this quote that Adam and Eve were destined to die until they ate of the tree of life. Twist it anyway you like, but that does not change the statement.
Did you notice that these gods made no mention of 'the woman'?

What's important to me is what God says to me through His word, if others believe as I do and I agree with them, then that's being the same as the atheist that stick together on an idea.
@ justthetruth Don't pay any attention to Min he's an old codger that plays badly with all the others in his sandbox. The only one he can get along with are those who he can convince to agree with him.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
