Besides the fact that that is one of the most mind numbing analogies I have run across in a long time, hasn't your bible been interpreted to suggest that there were no predator/prey relationships before "the fall," i.e., that wolves did not need to prey on sheep because everything was soooo wonderfully peaceable and god provided for every need before that tramp ate the magical fruit?
