I was reading in your group. And I have a few things to say, I am not a member of your group, so I cannot leave my comment there, so hopefully you do not mind me leaving it here. If so, you can delete it.

On your topic about death where you say, "Here we find that what happened in Genesis is our story too....in some mysterious way were present in the first man and woman's declaration of independence from God.....somehow our own failures and rebellion are linked to what happened in Genesis....."

     We die because we are imperfect. Our imperfection was inherited from Adam. When Jehovah (God) created Adam, He made him perfect. He also made Adam to live forever. That is why God warned him that he would die if he ate from The Tree of The Knowledge of Good and Bad. (This is also logical, because of Adam was going to die anyway, what would have been the point of telling him?) Now making Adam perfect with everlasting life meant that Adam's offspring would also be perfect with everlasting life. However, when Adam ate the fruit, he willingly sinned (it's willing because Jehovah also gave Adam free will to make his own decisions, this is also why we have free will), therefore becoming imperfect. Through Adam's sin death entered into the world (Death was in a sense Adam's punishment for sinning). Since Adam and Eve did not have children before they sinned, that meant there were no longer any perfect humans left on earth. If Adam and Eve would have had children before they ate the fruit, then there would be a different story to tell.  But anyway, because of our imperfections and sins we die.

           You can think of it as a bread pan, if somehow that bread pan gets a dent in it, then every loaf of bread  you make with it will also have a dent in it. Adam was our bread pan, his sin is the dent, and we are those loaves of bread. Because of Adam's sin, or dent, we inherited sin, or dents. 

            &nb sp;  Scriptures that back up my point: Genesis 1:27 -- And God proceeded to cerate the man in his image, in God's image he created him; male and female he created them. (Therefore man was created perfect, because Jehovah is perfect) 

            &nb sp;                         &nb sp;                         &nb sp;     Romans 5:19 -- For just as through the disobedience of the one man many were constituted sinners, likewise also throught the obedience of the one person (Jesus) many will be constituted righteous.. (This tells us because of Adam and his disobedience, we are also sinners.)
