Would you help someone look for a lost dog if that person can not describe the dog? Not unless your an idiot. If you can not tell me what your dog looks like then I can't help you find it.
Why are you asking us what it looks like?
Quote:This is your theory. Show me a garden being guarded by an angel with a flaming sword, for starters.The Garden needed an attendant according to Gen 2 (adam) The addendant is gone so too is the lush green garden. Flaming sword signifies heat so we are looking for some place hot, we know where 2 of the four rivers mentioned are (iraq) What is a massive tract of land in iraq that is very hot that could have facilitated this garden? the desert.
What evidence is there of a very long lasting (perhaps millions if not billions of year) deposit of bio matter located under the sands of the desert in that region?
Oil.
The very rich deposit of oil readily accessiable under the sands of the desert in that region signify a very large very old source of bio matter that was once there. The ease and accessiablity signify that geologicaly speaking that deposit is or was fairly new.
So what evidence that there was a garden of eden?
The known locations of 2 of the 4 rivers mentioned in genesis. the desert sands keeping anyone from entering it. the vast oil fields located under the desert that show there was one a tremoundous thriving biological source for all of this oil. The lack of any fosslisized remains in this area.
(Get a map and do some research before you give me a chance to make you look foolish. I did not say in dinosaurs were not found in iraq period. I said dinsaurs remains were never found in the purposed garden area.)
Quote:Altogether, Adam lived a total of 930 years, and then he died.Actually He first died the very day He ate the forbidden fruit, or rather his immortality ended that day. He began a new life when he left the garden. How do we know Adam and Eve were immoratal? Because right next to the tree of knoweledge was the tree of life. Of which they could freely eat. (Which in Gen 3 was the reason they were expelled from the garden) God did not want those two eating from the tree any more. (becomming immortal again.) So they were expelled for that reason. Meaning while they were in the garden they were immortal. Adam's recorded life span was the time he was given in this life.
