A Real and Significant Biblical Contradiction?

[spockrates]

I think you need to loosen up spockrates

If death were a process, rather than an event, would the assertion of Genesis 2 still be untrue?

But please tell me: What do you think of the supposed contradiction I've mentioned?

Well spotted there young vulcan. And more evidence for the conclusion that the bible is just a collection of unrelated myths.

Death BTW is not a process, it is the end of a process, namely life.

Myths? Perhaps. Unrelated? That remains to be seen!



Regarding the text you quoted, the Bible is pretty clear that death is a process. No need to quote verse after verse, but if you need one:

Jesus said to them, “I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you."

(John 6:53)

The living are not fully alive, he seems to be saying. Paul even goes so far as to say Pagans are walking dead!

I'm not saying the same of anyone here. Just making the point regarding the consistency of the biblical teaching that death is a process. We are all born to die, unless something is done to change this process.
