Ready When Made

HI Mike,In regard to the deterioration of species, do you think that, say in the last 100 years, humans have deteriorated or improved?Brian.

Hi Mike,I, like yourself, am not a scientist (no offence meant), so maybe we can discuss this at a basic level! lolOk, I know for a fact that humans are living far longer than we did even a hundred years ago. We can also run faster, we are stronger, we are clearly much healthier than people who lived a hundred years ago, so how can this be a deterioration?If your theory is correct, doesnt it suggest a steady decline from the perfect Adam and Eve down to the low life that we are right now? If this is the case, why isn't this what the evidence points to.If we were 'ready when made' why have we drastically improved physcially?Brian.

Hi Brad,I think what Mike was getting at in regard to deterioration was that sin caused a perfect world to 'fall away'. I believe that his model suggests that we start with a perfect being and once that being disobeys God then that being and his offspring began to deteriorate.I do not think that any improvement in humans is compatible with Mike's suggestion. Since we are clearly living much longer nowadays than we ever have before, I suggest that the idea of sin causing a deterioration of the world and its inhabitants is yet another aspect of this ancient book that has been proven wrong.Brian.
