Q: Does pre-Fall death skew one's view of Christ's return? A: Our confidence in God's promise to prepare a better place in the future depends on a better place having existed before Adam's sin. At Christ's return, He will complete His work of redemption. Several verses teach that He will "restore" and "redeem" all things to a similar but even better state than the pre-Fall world. Sin will be no more.
Regardless of our differences regarding the correct interpretation of Isaiah 11:6–9, the principle expressed there strongly implies that, when Christ restores the creation, animals will no longer eat each other. Human disease, suffering, and death will cease because the Curse will be no more. The Curse came upon creation at Adam's Fall and will be removed when the Last Adam consummates history.
The idea of millions of years of death contradicts the Bible's teaching about the nature of the pre-Fall creation and the present world. It also assaults the character of God. And it undermines the certain hope the Bible gives of Christ's future redemptive work.
Read the whole article and get better equipped to defend the authority of Scripture by seeing how the death of animals before the fall was not "good."

They really just have just an interesting fish, not the first step on the path to jaws. UK State–Funded Schools Ban All Teaching of Creation Science: The government of the United Kingdom tightened restrictions concerning what can be taught in any school that receives state–funding. The wording of the new regulations will not only stifle academic freedom but effectively define the religion that must be taught.
