Past Opportunities for Paradise

Isn't it remarkable that God has allowed humankind so much freedom to go in any way they please? To make good choices and to make bad choices. Mankind, from the very beginning, has had at least 10 unique times in history that they could have achieved paradise. Mankind has had these unique opportunities to achieve paradise... but failed. Paradise will only be established one way.
