The creation account was meant to be taken literally ONLY.
Are you suggesting that the Song of Songs and Revelations should also be taken literally? I take it you are half blind having plucked out one of your sinful eyes already.
I highlighted the words I spoke and as you can see I made no mention of the Song of Solomon or Revelation. Your big leap just shows you can't deal with the topic.

Beyond a point we take damage faster than we are able to repair it (and it's such a reliable measure that we can give an estimate of average expected lifespan), assuming that some population once had such an advantageous trait you'd be hard pressed to explain where it went. The quick and dirty mythical answer would be that of a curse, but if we're invoking curses and magic then drop genetics because all deference to biology or evolutionary theory up to that point was pretense.
Let me remind you that God limited the lifespan of man twice, so this is no surprise. The evidence for long lifespans can be found but again, if one takes the evidence from the quoted words and tries to apply it to a time where that limitation was not in effect, then they would just end up with the wrong information and conclusion.
you need to find a body from the pre-flood world and test it then use that evidence before drawing any conclusions.
