Death

      The issue of whether humanity is being continually punished must also be addressed. There is a conception that humanity is still being punished for the sin committed by Adam and Eve. I do not believe this. Adam and Eve were held personally accountable through their banishment in the garden. However, their downfall also allowed genetic degradation, in other words imperfections, as a result of their actions. They passed this potential for genetic imperfection on to their children resulting in the state that we know as death. Death is nothing more than complete genetic shutdown. The body now has a limit to how long it can sustain life. This is not simply about eating an apple but about the dangers of a lack in planning, data collection, and threat analysis. I believe God Punishes each individual for their sins.
