This is a question The B3TA Confessional

With the Pope about to visit the UK, what better time to unburden yourself of anything that's weighing on your mind by posting it on the internet? Pay particular attention to the Seven Deadly Sins of lust, greed, envy, pride, posting puns on the QOTW board and the other ones. Top story gets to kneel before His Holiness's noodly appendage, or something

Now is it just me or.....
Dear god, you know how you cast Adam and Eve out of Eden because Eve ate that apple?

Now correct me if I'm wrong, but the apple opened humanaties eyes to good and evil, right and wrong if you will. Am I right in claiming that before this, humans had no idea what it ment to do wrong, so as a result Eve had no concept that it wasn't right to eat the apple, she had no idea it was wrong to go against your word. If I were to tell a person who spoke no English that they could eat any wine gums except the black ones, in a language they could not understand, it would not be thier fault they ate the black wine gums, and it would be stupid to hold them responsible.

Now I'm a man of average inteligence and I can see the huge flaw in your logic, I could never create a universe, I have problems making an edible meal, yet I can see this. Let's just assume your more intelegent then me, so this can't simply of never occured to you. I put it to you, lord god that your banishing us from Eden, exposing us to pain, dissease, death and hunger, as well as subjecting women to the pain of child birth was through no fault of our species and was instead for your own ammusement, and as such, I find you to be by far the worst sinner.

I now have "I Predict a Smiting" going through my head to the tune of a song by a well known Leeds band.

Watching clouds gather above me
It's not very calming I tell thee
Offending the Lord is quite scary
And not very sensible either
A friend of a friend he got lightning
He lay with another man as with a woman which is an offense before the Lord
Would never have happened to Jesus

Im no theologian
but i think the basis of your argument is wrong, in that the story goes that god apparently told them not to eat the apple.

It's nothing to do with right and wrong
the original moral is to do with obeying the commandment of God

I understand that he said don't eat my apples and what have you, the issue i take is that with no concept of right or wrong, to break gods comandment has no meaning, as they would have no idea it was wrong to break the comandment.

Also, it's pretty silly to keep the knowlage of good and evil in an apple, why not in a rock or somthing that won't be eaten.

What I'm saying is that it doesn't matter whether it was right or wrong to do so
it was to do with obeying without regard. Good and evil existed. Right and wrong didn't.

No I don't believe it, but it's not inconsistent

But without morals, How could they know it was wrong to dissobey?
