Here is the way I figured it happened. Adam’s and Eve’s physical bodies were the immortal offspring of out heavenly father and a heavenly mother. They were place on a world that was already populated by millions of homo-sapiens who were genetically adpated to the various environments of the earth. In fullfilling the mandate to multiply and replenish ther earth, Adam’s descendants intermarried with the other homo-sapiens. Eventually making all homo-spiens on the planet literal descendents of Celestial ancestors. Because of Adams special parentage, he and his direct descendants were able to live very long lives. After the flood, Noahs offspring intermarried with other humans which caused the life expectancy to drop.

[...] another discussion on the boundary between scientific and religious explanations has been going on at Mormon Heretic, but has wandered into a theistic vs non-theistic discussion of the creation using “advanced [...]

Then I rest my case with D&C 58:21 and conclude that science should be now, and ultimatly will be, a tool of religion.

Another gift from the creator: The freedom of choice.

Why limit your choices?

Your round hole, as you put it, was constructed by yourself.

Its as if, you are creating the standard by which you will learn truth.

When, it is said, that God made the standard, which you are free to use in your quest for truth.

Big flaw in that formula is that it may as well be saying, “must be this tall to enter”. I cannot believe that something so flawed could come from an omnipotent being. No amount of wordsmithing from you is going to fit that square peg in my round hole.

Good answer…a wise answer.

Therefore, it would be a benefit for all, to use the formula, in science and biblical or BofM archeological studies…or in anything, for that matter.

Its simular to placing Socrates in the middle of Times square. He would never be able to deduce what is going on inside those buildings without:

[1] Some contact with someone from this present time frame.

or,

[2] Using a formula that describes all things.

Some say they can use this formula, while others say they can’t.

However, the source of the formula says that everyone has the capability to use the formula.

Unfortunatly, the formula is not presented to us on a silver platter. Which, ultimatly, may be in our favor.

No pain – no gain.

Let’s just say I wasn’t referring to the formula.
