Re: Mortality rates
Some think animals died before the Fall, but I think nothing died before the Fall, that all death entered with the Fall.
So, what did the herbivores eat?
You do know that plants are alive?

Re: Mortality rates
I don't count plants. They are not alive in the same sense.
Very convenient.
Anything that disproves what you believe then you just don't count it.
Excellent.
Of course, lions and tigers and bears (Oh My!)were vegetarians before the Fall weren't they?

Re: Mortality rates
They wouldn't have consumed their own eggs before the Fall, they lived on veggie burgers and lentils.
Either that or they don't count!
To be fair though, I havent met many Christians who believe this particular idea, it isn't a widely held belief.

Re: Mortality rates
The whole suggestion is utterly flawed.
I'm no scientist, but i'm sure there are many insects that only live for a very short period of time.
You can bet there will be some sort of hilarious excuse.
You can't make this stuff up.
edited to add, if there was no death before the Fall, how would Adam and Eve understand what Charlton Heston was talking about when he threatened them?
