Hi,
There's a whole lot of stuff in there that you take for granted and you do not attempt to justify your conclusions to others.
For example, this particular claim is confusing:
So you see life is a cycle of life and death; it's a perfect creation.
This is difficult to accept, given that death was not originally part of creation, and only entered because of mankind's sin. Thus, you are claiming that God created sin as part of His perfect creation, this does not make sense at all.
Brian.

Hi,
I believe much of the Bible is literal.
Eh, of course much of it is literal, it is trying to prove which parts are literal that is the difficult bit.
For example, do you believe that Lamech lived for 777 years, 653 years, or 753 years?
Or is Lamech's age one of those things we should not take literally?
Brian.
