Take the tour ×  Old Earth Creationism incorporates evolution,
which requires natural selection, which requires death. If death
pre-dated Adam, then death pre-dated sin. How then do Old Earth
Creationists explain Romans 5:12, which says that death did not
pre-date sin?   share|improve this question There is many
different viewpoints on what the word "death refers in verses in
bible; such as Mark 9:1: And he said to them, “Truly I tell you,
some who are standing here will not taste death before they see
that the kingdom of God has come with power.” –  Sȱɳɨȼ Ʈħe
ǶḝÐɠḝħȱɠ Mar 1 '12 at 3:04 Old-earth creationism traditionally
does not incorporate evolution. Theistic Evolution does, and it
is sometimes considered OEC, and sometimes not. –  Flimzy Mar 1

–  Flimzy Mar 1 '12 at 10:50 @Flimzy You are absolutely right
about OEC, but it's hard to believe in an Old Earth and not
admit that (physical) death took place before Adam. –
