Very facile. Now, how about applying that directly to God's words to Adam in Gen. 2:17. Is it your suggestion that the correct interpretation of God's admonition is that only Adam's soul would die if he ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil? And if that is the case, why would the knowledge of good and evil cause Adam's soul to die (my first question, if you were following the series of posts).

Very facile.

It's not a debate. You're asking for the "correct" meaning of death. Why would you accept some anonymous person on the internet as an authority?

It wasn't the 'knowledge', but the failure to be obedient: "Thou shalt not"

I know that being 'obedient' is anathema to most all Americans these days, and THAT is what is sticking in their craw.
