Then the definition in ancient times is the same as now. "Blood" is found in vertebrates.

"blood" is the circulatory fluid in vertebrates. that is a definition--see how easy that is. You seemed to have trouble with a definition earlier

Generally blood refers to the circulatory fluid in vertebrates. Haemolymph is the equivalent in invertebrates and plants I guess would be---sap? So using the Biblical language, only vertebrates are alive therefore the "death" of anything else preFall is not considered death.

It was a serious question. "Life of the flesh is in the blood" does that mean without blood there is no life? Or do you need both flesh and blood. Or does it only refer to vertebrates? Or is is a particular reference to humans? Or only connected with humans because other animals do not have souls?

then you Sorry about that double quote. You have not provided a definition. It was a simple question

define blood.

I think you missed the point. The issue was a question about death prior to the Fall. According to JR's post 17 all death does not equal death in the Biblical sense---plant death does not equal death. Do you agree with that? What death counts as death? Insect death? invertebrate death?

Is that the question that drives the decision? If a Marxist Communist dictator, who thinks nothing of killing those who speak out against him, threatens a big war--is it a walk-over for Putin, he gets to do what he wants? He gets to put more people under his thumb? The guy with the biggest gun...

Ukraine has been independent since 1991. Yes, it was part of the USSR. Also I think at times part of Poland and or Austria-Hungary? But sorry, using your analysis the US should still be part of England, there should be no Israel. And I'm not certain that its modern development was all at the...

Ah, sorry, the Crayola comment was a cheap shot. Mea culpa.

Why would I do that? Are you suggesting that since I disagree with Trump I should go fight? I cannot disagree with Trump without risking my life? Sorry, but I have to pick and choose how I respond to Trump's ignorant anti-democracy policies. I just dont think that sending my 78 year old fanny...

Goodness, sorry, what is the specific question?

A bit of incoherence from 7

England declared war on Germany after Hitler invaded Poland, right? Or was war declared just for fun?

You certainly have a different view of history. Why should Ukraine be part of Russia?

I'm not, Trump is.

Aww, you are always so sweet. But, why would Trump take the Neville Chamberlain position v Putin? Why should anyone agree that Putin should wind up with any part of Ukraine? Do you expect Trump's peace plan will mean Putin will leave without keeping any of Ukraine's land?

Putin invaded Ukraine Trump is giving Ukraine to Putin. Because?

Oh, OK. So plant death does not equal death? Everyone was a vegetarian? Those big feline canines were for what reason? Or did the jaws of cats change after the fall. Sharks used those razor sharp triangular teeth to eat---kelp?

Actually there are "good" today that attack bacteria. But how do you rationalize that preFall when no death was supposed to be the standard. Neither viruses or bacteria would have much to do.
