OK I'll pass that on to Lauren for you. (I guess that's why you addressed that to me?)

I was taught that the first age ended with the ice age. There are scriptures but is so involved. The other person that posted about the first age said that the end of the first age had to do with meteors hitting the earth

Although the sentence you wrote was a little difficult to decipher, I just read all 24 verses of Genesis 3, and found no mention, at all, of what you seem to have said.
Genesis 3
And I will put enmity
Between you and the woman,
And between your seed and her Seed;
He shall bruise your head,
And you shall bruise His heel.”

Earliest prophecy of the Messiah in the Bible.

You know Adam and Eve believed for they named their first son Cain. "I aquired a man from the Lord"

Satan attacked Cain and convinced him to kill his brother Abel.

Genesis 4 v.25

Seth "for God has appointed another seed for me instead of Abel, whom Cain killed"

We have a spirit apart from God otherwise the verse that says our spirit agrees with the HOLY Spirit that we are children of God and can call Him Abba, father would make no sense.
Still working on looking more into all of this.
That which is born of the flesh is flesh. That which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
It is the Spirit which quickens to life. The flesh profits nothing.

I believe babies are born with the breath of life. They don't spiritually die until they reach the age of accountability and make their first conscious decision to sin and turn away from God. I believe the age is different for each person. Mentally handicap people may never reach that age.

I know you didn't ask me, but didn't want you to feel ignored.
I'm still looking this all up but when I read about the Spirit "quickening" to life, it makes me think we have a spirit but it is dead...still looking.

We don't really understand what a Spirit being would be like but God is Spirit and He has a form. Looks like men doesn't He? Not sure where I got that idea...perhaps a vision in scripture.

So I would not call them ethereal. Not sure now who used that word. This is another thought that I have. Perhaps they had a body like ours but were filled with light? Ruled by spiritual authority? Similar to what we are now yet what we are is just a foretaste of what we will be.

With the fall...light left, darkness rules. Men become flesh beings and so does all mankind. Before the fall, men and animals both ate plant life. I can't say what animals were like

But, I did say I haven't studied this yet for myself stunned. Where I will start though is "man became a living soul". Hint...lol
I think there is a verse that says God is Spirit and that He does not have a form...

We have to teach kids to share, they are naturally selfish and self centered.

Do you study everything you hear your pastor say?
I certainly do. I have never been a part of a church where the preacher didn't tell us all, from the pulpit, to be sure to do that very thing.

The human body is a temple for the Holy spirit...human physical bodies are not innately evil. God created them good.

"Flesh" in the biblical sense is not referring to the physical body but the carnal mind.

the age of the earth is not in the discussion or 'teaching' of the op that I can tell...

but who knows at this point..perhaps it is a thought not yet manifested but will be in the posts to come and we will be assured it was always there and the Hebrew interpretation of the Greek past tense participle of the advent of before times began will be introduced

maybe that's where the unicorns went...even thought unicorn is another bad example of the KJV translation which some hold is the inspired word of God as opposed to translation but I digress...

but don't let that stop anyone
You asked me what I specifically got from something. I told you.
