Thank you for this. I'm aware of this having previously saved a copy some time ago. Nevertheless, it's good to be reminded of this. I'm absolutely on-board with its content. Regarding this publication, I often wonder about it. There's another consideration that ties into this puzzle. The document Is called-- "Cosmic Death Fungus". It's an odd name for a title, but it describes a killing agent that is ubiquitous in our environment. It inhabits every cell of our body. And our cells and our immune system suppresses it keeping it in check as long as we live. When it breaks free, it spreads and leaves a wake of toxins for our excretory system to attend to and eliminate. This results in fever and illness. In Genesis, to which we read the penalty of sin is death. It's not very often people ponder what this mechanism for death was and is. We all know death is 'death', no? However, I don't accept this as a valid answer. It's like asking -- 'What is the unforgivable sin?' Every pastor and minister I know always regurgitate -- It is "sinning against the holy Spirit". I'll then ask -- "What is that sin though?' The reaction is always the same; a smile with the pastor ending the conversation. To me, there's far more to this than people seem to want to look at.

Could the penalty of death be our immune system from that point on no longer was an impenetrable fortress and could be compromised (ie. stress, guilt, environmental toxins, etc.) due to this sinful 'knowledge' we learned? Were fungus and parasites allowed to enter this world to afflict us, shorten our lives, and sow the seeds for our eventual ending? Is this penalty of learning 'evil'? I wonder.

Prior to the Great Deluge it appears that 'true' old age was the cause of death. We read up to the time of Noah, his patriarchs lived to be on average over 900 years old. Then, the Great Deluge occurred.

Keep in mind that a fungus and parasite contamination introduced into the world, say, from a meteor falling to Earth, would spread and be reflected in the progressive decline in age of deaths. Fungus has been attributed to affecting the genetic mechanics of aging. Parasites cause disease. The Deluge or Great Flood appears to be the point when longevity abruptly starts to decline. Was it here that such a catastrophic event occurred? Shem lived 350 less years than his father Noah (950 yrs. old). Shem's son, Arphaxad lived 162 years less than his father. And longevity continues to decline after that.

It is written that Abraham lived to be 175 years. Here is a chart that depicts the decreasing longevity of people in the bible. Even from Isaac to Moses the ages of decease decline, but less precipitously. Moses' (120 years old) father is Amram (137 years old), the son of Kohath (133 years old), the son of Levi (137 years old), the son of Jacob (147 years old), the son of Isaac (180 years old).

Moses brother was Aaron. He lived 123 years. Judah, son of Jacob was 119 years old. Fast forward to David. He was 70 years old when he died.

IMHO, it's an interesting theory to say the least.
