The explanation for the decadence of the aboriginal peoples he speaks about is only explained by the real fall from the real Eden when aboriginal Adam sinned against the real God. Only real religion (Christianity) offers a way to reverse the real effects of our sin.

No. Early man was not decadent. They were survivalists in the literal sense. Eat or be eaten. Fight or die. Remember, we evolved just as the rest of life did on this planet.

I think his point is that many early tribes were vicious and decadent and some that were at the other extreme. There were "fierce" tribes and others that learned to get away from and to defend themselves from the more aggressive types.

Western Civilization is the latter type of tribe.
