Is the Tree of Life still in the garden of Eden?

No, it is now conceived that PRDS (PARADISE) is in the Tree of Life,
but the Tree of Life is no longer in G-D. It has been projected into
outer reality. The spiritual adept must reverse that process through
pranayama and return the Tree of Life to the Garden of Eden within the
Consciousness of G-D. This is the "Oak Tree in the Garden" of a
famous Zen koan.

Did the angel guarding the Tree drown in the Flood?

Jehoshua Moshiach fought the battle against that angel and prevailed.
Hence, said He: I am come that they might have life and have it more
abundantly.

Does God need blood, gore and guts in order to forgive sins?

He does require a demonstration of transcendence of bodily reality,
for one cannot believe in outer reality and in the reality of G-D -
they are mutually exclusive.
