What evidence do you have that our DNA is breaking down over time?
Adam, Noah and others back then lived very long lives because they were not subject to the decay that has piled up over generations in our DNA.
All of the available evidence shows that humans are living longer, healthier lives than any time in human history.
"All of the available evidence shows that humans are living longer, healthier lives than any time in human history."
You are helping me make my point. In case you forgot, my point was that you can't reconcile the Bible and evolution with eachother. If you accept both, they why is it that the ability to live over 900 years (without advanced medical science even) vanished so quickly? Someone living that long would be capable of having a LOT of children with the genetics for long life and disease resistance.
It's true we live longer than they did 500 years ago, but that is due to medical science, not an improved gene pool.
