That's how the story was put for us as kids, but we all know the apple represented sex.
The devil opened their eyes to see the pleasure of sex.

UncleSnr:
So you mean, they were created not to have sex. How do they reproduce if not through sex?

allanphash7:

Adam and eve knew nothing like right or wrong, they had no advanced knowledge of things before eating the fruit..
(Going by the story)
-If they didn't eat the fruit, we would probably be walking around unclad without knowing right from wrong or why lightening flash because we have no knowledge advanced enough for that..
Thats a cool story..
-So eve ate the tree of knowledge and by that one act her eyes were opened to the door of knowledge
(And God was mad? 
why? 
He needs robots and not people with knowledge?) Then why put the tree there.?
- Here God was against Knowledge but the snake whispered the first few words of learning into eve's ears, showed her the path to knowledge, the ability to understand which God didn't want her to know in the first place.
Who really is the Villain here.?
- According to the story Adam and Eve had no knowledge of Good and evil before eating the fruit meaning Eve didn't even know she was committing evil by eating the fruit but she was punished for her naivety.
I wonder how Eve could be out witted by a snake if she really had real homo sapiens brain, showing Eve was just a moroni_c pound of flesh walking around..
- God knew he didn't want the fruit eaten but he just had to put the fruit in front of them..
(I got rat poison biscuit, i know it's not good then i place it in front of my children and tell them not to eat it and get angry when they do?... Who dah fvck was supposed to be blamed..
Me or my children..
- And nobody is remembering there was a tree that could give eternal life.. (Immortality ) Cool story..
-Going by the omniscient principle, God knew before hand they would eat the fruit then was angry they did even though he put the tree there.. 
-It takes a special kind of crazy to believe such tales but well when a whole bunch of people believe it, we call it religion but if it were one person we would say he is crazy.
I think any right mind would agree that we must all Question the idea of a God who creates faulty humans then blames them for his own mistakes and still bears a grudge till now even on innocent children..
Such grudge bearing supreme being is not only childish but stark absurd..
Nobody was born a sin or sinner, somebody fvcking lied, its high time people realized that...

To me the apple represents sex, Satan had sexual intercourse with Eve, and when Adam her husby came back, she seduced him, had sex with him and their eyes opened. Then Satan had legs and hands like normal human but started crawling after the curse from God.

MadCow1:
My only problem is why was God against Mankind having the knowledge of good and evil?



And why has he stayed pissed off with mankind since that time till now over 5000 years ..

And how cam you say he is all forgiving when he has not sent man back to Eden to start all over?

Why did it take his Son coming to die first before he started considering forgiving us?

Pfft...

BobUg28:
Adam didn't literally eat apple. He ate what closed Abacha's eyes.

AreaFada2:
I think we humans are just there believing we understand the Bible. We largely don't. Much of the Bible is not literally what it seems.

Even invoking holy spirit from here to Nagasaki will hardly change it. Instead let's just live a simple life devoid of hate & acrimony, be at peace with oneself & the world around us.

Proudlyngwa:

The time to have sex was not yet right.
They needed to reach a certain level before they could have sex, how will you feel if your unprepared kids went into the family way

angelo5uk:
I know many of the people here won't agree with the me.
But I think that story shouldn't be interpreted literally like many other stories in these religious religious texts.
Most of those stories are Esoteric Allegories and didn't happen. They have deep hidden meanings, codes, symbols and lessons in such stories.

Emeskhalifa:

ogar Sir wasn't she (Eve) Adams wife??
or was the sex btwn Satan and Eve?. if yes, how then was Adam part of the sin committed??

Proudlyngwa:


Trash
the moral of the story is
1.Obedience.
2. Portion of responsibility
3. Acceptance of mistake
4. Plea for mercy
5. Restitution.

Adam failed all

koladebrainiac:


Didnt God remove Eve from Adam bone?
He could be doing that as a means of reproduction

And one can even say the time is not right n the essence of copulation is to make babies
Then Satan should pleasure telling them they can enjoy sex without getting pregnant. So they did it n realized they were naked . they became aware of each other bodies.

WHOcarex:
But when God created them He said they should go into the world and multiply. How were they supposed to do that without sex??

allanphash7:
Trash you said ?



I want to believe that you Believe that your god is al knowing ?



If YES then why would he give you a test that he/she has already know that you wont pass and yet still purnish you for failing such test ?




Think about this brother

The Almighty God is all knowing but not in the way he is portrayed.

Man was given free will, without that he will have no claim to be the lord of creations.
Bottom line Adam bleeped up.
