If you want to study the saints read the Fathers of Orthodoxy. (Paisios, Porfirios, Seraphim Rose) etc etc

>Origenist ideas influenced venerated fathers like Gregory of Nyssa
St. Gregory did not teach apocatastasis like modernists like to claim, if that is what you were talking about. In fact, he explicitly says that here is eternal damnation for some people, see https://orthodoxchristiantheology.com/2020/07/29/gregory-of-nyssa-is-not-a-universalist-an-introduction/.. He also teaches no death before the fall and six-day creation, so you are out of luck here too.

>overwhelming evidence
The only 'evidence' is evidence strictly in a naturalistic framework which denies revelation. You have to assume unprovable things about the past to show that all these things happened before the fall. It all literally boils down to "thing X happens now, so thing X happened always! I will show no proof for my statement". It really is this childish and absurd.

If you want to believe in these fairy tales, fine, but please do not try to mix my religion with them. They're completely incompatible and people either realize this when they understand more about the faith, or apostatize over this.
