There are three possibilities in our scenario:
1. The retroviral sequences were originally designed in and had an initial (pre-fall for example) beneficial role.
2. The retroviral sequences inserted during the fall.
3. The retroviral seqeunces inserted deterministically at some other time via DNA motifs and hence incorporate relative to phylogenetics.
It is good evidence of common descent, don't get me wrong, but it has possible answers in our scenario.
The so-called Fall of Man was a set up, as in planned all along. Adam and Eve had absolutely no concept of what right or wrong, or good and evil were. They knew nothing of what a consequence was either before they ate of the apple. In order for a person to be able to make such decisions they first must be able to understand these concepts, otherwise they are innocent children. As I've stated before, would you toss your children out into the world naked and ignorant the very first time they may have disobeied you? Would you be that much of an unfit parent. Would you demand that if some other parent did this to their children that they be arrested and charge as an unfit parent?
Yes - I have always been astonished at the cold-heartedness displayed by the Hebrew tribal deity to its supposed 'children.'
That and the wickedness of its tendency to slaughter innocents for, apparently, its own satisfaction.
Sort of like worshipping Stalin or Pol Pot....
