I'm curious about some fundamentalist answers to some genesis questions.
1. Is adam in heaven or hell? Was he ever forgiven?
Maybe neither, since he was returned to dust?
2. Where is Eden? Genesis did not say that it was destroyed, rather guarded from trespass by some barrier (flaming sword I think). So why can't we find it, if not enter it?
Originally posted by RegicidalI am sure that the guard left and it was wiped out during the flood.

2 Some early Christian fathers and late classical authors suggested it could lie in Mongolia or India or Ethiopia. They based their theories quite sensibly on the known antiquity of those regions, and on the notion that the mysterious Pison and Gihon were to be associated with those other two great rivers of the ancient world, the Nile and the Ganges.

ADAM IN THE GARDEN PINNING LEAVES
cho: Oh Eve, where's Adam? (3x)
Adam in the garden pinning leaves.
Well, I know my God is a man of war,
Adam in the garden pinning leaves.
He fought the battle at the Jericho wall,
Adam in the garden pinning leaves.
Well, the first time God called, Adam refused to answer,
Adam in the garden pinning leaves,
Well, the first time God called, Adam refused to answer,
Adam in the garden pinning leaves,
The next time God called, God hollered louder,
Adam in the garden pinning leaves,
The next time God called, God hollered louder,
Adam in the garden pinning leaves.

Originally posted by Bosse de NageFossilization requires rapid burial. Yet such burial is exceedingly rare today, and fossilization is almost non-existent in modern times. The existence of massive numbers of fossils worldwide is clear evidence of quick, deep, mass burial. A global flood catastrophe would offer conditions most ideal to the location of great numbers of fossils. The fossils give evidence that the animals were killed suddenly.
Quit the condescension and tell me straight about your evidence for the Flood. If your evidence contains unfamiliar words, I shall reach for my handy dictionary. Now do go on and make your point about fossils.
Hugh Miller wrote decades ago that the entire British Isles are underlaid by billions of fish fossils, not laid down by normal sedimentary deposits, but many of these have arched backs distended gills, open mouths as if trying to get oxygen but caught with silt in their gills instead and destroyed by the billions by a cataclysmic sedimentary context. This would take a world wide flood.
