I have followed the discussion here on the theory of evolution with interest. In one article I read the hypothesis is made that immortality and vegetarianism applied only to the animals in garden of Eden, an enclosed haven outside of which creation remained hostile and dangerous. There were some statements in the article I found scientifically questionable, though I would need to review them again, and I am really only concerned with the theology. An assertion was made, possibly with a quote, claiming that St. Augustine taught that animals were created mortal.
Should anyone be interested in reading the full article I am interested in hearing perspectives concerning the compatibility of the ideas contained therein with Orthodoxy.
