I'm just curious...
Were humans resistant to the DNA mutating effects of the suns radiation prior to sin, or did eden sheild them from the UV rays, or did god alter the sun itself to make it emit the harmful rays after he threw them out of paradise?
I think mutation and skin cancer are such clever punishments for sin... I'm just wondering how god came up with all these unique ways to make us pay for our badness.

Makes you realize how retarded this garden must have been. "Yes, because in the garden children, all the bacteria and the bllod cells got along...".

What makes you think that DNA was altered? What makes you see that mutation and skin cancer are punishment for sin? What makes you think there was hot sun in Eden? I only read about trees being there and if plenty of trees it may be cool.
In my view we can not compare today and this time in this sequence to the past and see that it was then as it is now. I see changes daily in place that do effect circumstances and conditions.
I am sorry my friend but I can not give a better answer without knowing what caused you to arrive at the conclusions you indicated.
Do have a nice day

God is merciful, they are badges of our proverty and infamy, that we should be thankful for the clothes God puts on our backs, The animals that the skins were taken from was slain before them, so that they would recognize death, and realize their mortal state, also a forshadowing of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross through the sacrifice of the animal that came from the skin for their sins, "Thus the first thing that died was a sacrifice, or Christ in a figure, who is therefore said to be the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world." "the flesh was offered to God, a whole burnt-offering; the skins were given to man for clothing, signifying that, Jesus Christ having offered himself to God a sacrifice of a sweet-smelling savour, we are to clothe ourselves with his righteousness as with a garment, that the shame of our nakedness may not appear." Also through the seed of the woman would come the salvation of man. That Satan would bruise his heel and that Jesus would crush his head. Satan would kill Jesus physically, which was a minor death, compared to Jesus crushing his head through eternal damnation in Hell, the spiritual death.
