One thing seems to be forgotten in all this debate. The Scripture states that "death entered into the world through one man." That man was Adam. Now is death did not begin until Adam sinned, then evolution can't stand. Evolution needs "billions and billions" of years to work and all the while death is occurring as the strong survive. Death cannot exist before Adam, the Scripture says so.

Perfectly stated!

Perhaps what was meant was that 'death of the soul' did not begin until Adam sinned. Much of the bible and Jesus' teachings were done in parables. Is it not possible that the story of Adam and Eve was a parable to simplify the whole of evolution so that men could understand it??
