A&E had access to the “tree of life” and could have lived forever had they ate from it. But they forfeited that right the moment they chose to sin by eating from the one tree that was forbidden to them. Bad choice. Then that wouldn't alter my point at all. Their bad choice. No one else's. God warns A&E that THEY will die. But God determines that the consequence shall also spread into the world, to be meted out to all of their unborn descendants. If there's a charge of unfairness anywhere, it lies in punishing the children for the crime of the parents. And that is a reasonable argument.
But lets face it, the story was not written by eye witnesses to explain what went on, it was a story to try and explain how we find ourselves in a fallen state.
