Genesis 6:4 teaches that man's days are to be 120 years old. So why do we die so young? People die prematurely because of: poisons in our world; fluoride and chlorine in the water; toxins in our food (like aluminum); air pollution; lack of vitamins and minerals in our foods; suppressed natural cures for cancer; worry and stress; working midnights; smoking; alcohol; drugs (illegal AND legal); lack of exercise; overeating; environmental pollutions by many of the big corporations; and so many more reasons. People are dying much too young!

Historical evidence points not only to our lives having gotten longer... but also that the "poisons in our world; fluoride and chlorine in the water; toxins in our food (like aluminum); air pollution; lack of vitamins and minerals in our foods; suppressed natural cures for cancer;"... having not existed centuries ago.
The dumb is OVER 9000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe, and that’s just guessing, that 120 years figure came from the fact that even in biblical times, some people were lucky enough to live that long. We still have a much higher average life expectancy today, thanks to those godless scientists.
Are you sure you're not thinking of the Players Handbook Chapter 4? (2nd and 5th edition)
And you of all people bringing up stress as a cause of premature death? You want to cause less stress, stop spouting bullshit!
Why did some guys in Genesis live to be 900? Because the bible is a total myth.
You know what? We died even younger before we had fluoride and chlorine in our water. Like an average lifespan of about 30.
Genesis 6:4 says:
"The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men, and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown." (New American Standard)
6:3 is the one you want:
"Then the LORD said, "My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, because he also is flesh; nevertheless his days shall be one hundred and twenty years.""
Keep in mind, this is all a build-up to the Noah/flood myth. 6:5 and beyond are all about mankind's wickedness
Yeah, preach the word, Dopey! We need to return to the olden days before the toxic grasp of big pharma, back when the average person lived to an average age of 35! Oh, wait; there's something wrong here.
It's time for you to face reality and accept that without the advancements in modern medicine our life expectancy would be much lower, as it was in the 1500s and before. The only accounts of people living to such ages in the past are found in mythology, not reliable history, and that should tell you something. Sure, cancer and heart disease are bigger problems now than they once were, but that's because people are living long enough for this to effect them, you ignorant dolt. Cancer and heart disease are a bigger risk to the elderly, and in the past people would have been more likely to have met fatal ends through diseases like cholera and smallpox before these could affect them.
Hey, David. Fuckwit! Don't you even know y6our own Bible:
"Our days may come to seventy years, or eighty, if our strength endures; yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away."
Psalm 130:10
Last time I looked. the Psalms of David were written long after Genesis!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
