Depends on the Adamite theory you adhere to and/or the extent of the "state of no death".I'm not following this, BC. When was Adam born/created? I take it you don't subscribe to the 4004 BC dogma, at ten o'clock in the morning.
I don't.
I accept evolution and the fact that homo sapiens have been here for hundreds of thousands of years. How I reconcile this is with 2 Nephi 2:22 which clearly differentiates between the created world and the world in the process of creation. In the later, the state of no death is not given as a property.
So with homo sapiens, I posit that the spirits inhabiting them were not literal spirit children of God. They were more along the lines of highly intelligent animals perhaps. When all was ready, homo sapiens with literal spirit children of God of God placed within them were born and placed into the Garden into a state of no death to await the fall.
This explains much, for example the fact that homo sapiens has been around for a long long time without any substantial development socially or technologically. Of course, this may put the fall of Adam and Eve closer to the time of the first civilization, Sumer, 8000 BC. Still manageable in my book and perhaps some other marker could place the fall closer to the standard figuring.
Who said anything about believing in absurdities? I know I have not advocated such, nor have I seen any indication that BC has done anything of the sort.So you believe that the Garden of Eden was in Missouri?
Do the scriptures used to support that notion actually say the Garden was in Missouri? They don't. However, I would have no problem if it were.
Do you believe that homosexuals can be "cured"?
I believe, as per Ether 12:27, that God gives us various weakness, one of which may be homosexuality.
