God put a fruit near Adam and Eve and told them not to eat it although God knew that if they did eat it he would punish every person who ever lived after that.
Oh my. Did he never read the scriptures?
Deuteronomy 24:16 (ESV) “Fathers shall not be put to death because of their children, nor shall children be put to death because of their fathers. Each one shall be put to death for his own sin.
Ezekiel 18:20 (ESV) The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not suffer for the iniquity of the father, nor the father suffer for the iniquity of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself.
The declaration which says that God visits the sins of the fathers upon the children is contrary to every principle of moral justice. [Thomas Paine, The Age of Reason]
Putting it there was therefore the right thing to do.
That makes no sense. Why place all those people in jeopardy? What is right about that?
Adam and Even were the first humans, but if they hadn't eaten the fruit, none of the billions of humans that followed would have eaten one of those things.
Quite easy when it is fruit we are talking about but it is not fruit. It is the knowledge of almost everything because almost everything is subject to good and evil.
So are you saying we billions of intelligent humans should be as stupid as E & E were before they ate of knowledge?
They were even too stupid to know they were naked.
Adam and Eve had no knowledge of evil, yet they chose evil, knowing that it is evil to choose evil.
Well that sounds stupid. Care to re-write it?
They messed up, and that is why we wear clothes today.
That really happened.
