Heaven has some innovative technology, having inspired the creation of swords, the discovery of fire, but never the creation and discovery of fire swords. We must catch up to Heaven! Quick, somebody, learn how to magic items!
That actually makes sense. An omnipotent, omniscient God would be able to arm His angels with any weapons he wanted -- past, present, future, or outright fantasy.
Why He didn't just put Star Trek shields over the entrance to Eden is anybody's guess.

I fail to see the connection.
I heard that Glamdring was a flaming sword.
"Oh dear.... you're not going to hit that smelly goblin with me, are you? Ohmagod! That would be SO gauche! And I just got polished, too..."
He put the "glam" in "Glamdring."
flaming swords
This is either very homo-erotic, or just as bad an idea as 'sword-chucks'(a nunchuck-sword hybrid, for the uninitiated).
Um ... is it too crazy to think, like, it's SYMBOLIC? Swords symbolize guardianship and authority, fire symbolizes active/dangerous power?
According to the book of Enoch, angels taught humans to make weaponry (as well as a whole bunch of things).
Can we prove that they did? Answer: No.
For those that want to know
"sword" is translated from
But point that out to a fundy and be called a heretic...
So wait. A peaceful religion has a deity that invented Shiny Burning Weapons in its place of eternal rest and peace, to keep people from ever returning to a utopia?
You fundies really have gone completely bugfuck insane, haven't you.
Well, obviously, Adam got the idea of swords when he saw the angel. He was the person to start calling them "swords" -- it's also where he got the idea of fire. It took Adam a while to actually get around to making swords and fire though, but that's not really a problem. After all, Adam lived to be 930 years old. That's about a thousand years time for him to actually getting around to inventing the sword. Even if he himself didn't make the first man-made sword, he probably created the first prototypes. His offspring would have seen that and then gone on to make the first man-made swords. And thus, the first man-made swords could easily have come into existence thousands of years after the Fall and flaming swords could easily have existed in Heaven long before that. Duh.
Edit: @Katsuro --
I'm sorry to add, but what a panzy this god of yours is creating flowers and flaming swords first when he could freely make and do whatever he wanted. Why "if I were in charge I would have made lasers... day one- 8 o'clock."
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
