@jambon1..........If it is the case that the reason people die is
It is written that we(HUMANKIND)were given The Dominion over the Creation.......so therefore would it not be reasonable to suggest that our transgression was indeed passed on to the whole of creation?
........and the ultimate reason we were cast out...Gen ch3 v20-24. So that we could not TRULY become Like God....wotta fairy tale!
