Ahem ... any child in Sunday school, when they first learn that man wasn't supposed to die, and that God and Adam & Eve interacted directly with each other, starts to learn that things were different back then.
Anyone who reads Genesis 1-3, then reads a science book, should be able to ascertain that things were quite different back then; and if he reads Genesis 1-10, then reads a science book, he should know things were quite different back then.
This isn't a question of veracity though; this is a question of whether one paradigm is different from another -- and how.Or understand that the Bible is not all true.

Do cartoon physics display a different universal state? you bet it does.
The question was asked if this universe functioned under a different state in the past.Yep. And then comes the question of veracity when we have to ascertain whether a stuffed tiger doll can really talk, a beagle fly a doghouse as an ace pilot, or a burning bush speak.
So, if you're suggesting that we teach our kids to believe the Bible as much as they believe cartoons, then I'm all with you.
The question was asked if this universe functioned under a different state in the past.
Two of us believe it did; and I also believe that anyone who compares the state of the universe in Genesis 1-3 with current paradigms will agree with me that the Bible has the universe operating under a different set of laws.

I have a grade 9 education. I must be somewhat intelligent!Funny how you'e never made that claim for yourself -- just for those who don't see you as brilliant as you see yourself.
For......what?Dad, I'll ask you, do you have any evidence to support your position that comes from the real world? Yes or no?
No -- it's not a matter of 'questions' -- but of implied truth.So, the question becomes: is the Bible a reflection of historical reality, or of mythology?
Not that I know of -- there are some things that you'll just have to get from the Documentation.I'll make it very clear...
Is there anything we can learn from the real world that indicates that the laws of the universe operated differently in the past?

The one in my name, my faith icon, and my profile.Which documentation? The Quran? The Vedas? The testimony of cargo cults?

The universe operated under a different set of rules in Adam's time.
