Creating the eye Can't be done by random natural processes. It can't be devolved into smaller incremental steps.

I would go for an age between 6 and 10 thousand years rather than strictly 6,000. Also, I wonder where these figures come from, since I thought human recorded history doesn't go back that far.

You're still left with God creating something not good with death before the fall.

Creation was declared good by God in Genesis which would mean having no sin, and therefore no death. Would a perfect God create a world not perfect? Sinning at the start? We would have to call death a good thing if we have it before the fall.

True enough. But it is related to the issue of sin.

The part that matters, is getting the foundation of Christianity right. That DOES affect eternal salvation. So sin came through Adam, sin led to death and the sin came at the fall So if we accept evolution, especially macro evolution, it messes with this. Death happening way before the...

Yeah, I'm not actually kjvo myself but I always use the KJV

Weeeell the definition of the New Testament church is one that does physically assemble, locally. That the membership of it is of saved, baptized believers gathered together to carry out the great command and commission. I think Baptistboard is a parachurch organization. I understand there are...
