designed to eat meat
I dont know...but from Gen 1:29-30, it says they were designed to eat plants and the plants were treated like meat.
In Isaiah 11:6-9, "The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them. 7 And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. 8 And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice' den. 9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
I do not understand either why there could be a vegetarian piranha...but God says there was so thats what I believe.
You might notice that the quotation from Isaiah is in future tense. It is a prophecy about the future, not a historical statement about the past.
It is also not an enormous stretch to consider the whole passage a metaphor for changes in people.
ok, I can see that, but I see it as a verse that looks back and predicts the future too.
The dude in the verse is Adam. Adam was the only other perfect man besides Jesus...well that is for a limited time.
