Not knowing much about Orthodoxy, I am curious about
Irenaeus' doctrine of recapitulation. Does Irenaeus see
physical creation in such a state after Adam, that it is
in need of Christ to restore creation? If so, what about
creation did Adam break that Christ fixed? We (TE's) of
course dont see death coming into the world with Adam like
the YEC's do; is Irenaeus position on this similar to
YECism, or is Irenaeus just saying that the relationship
between Man and God needs to be restored?
