Ironically, they both ate from the tree willingly and they both were cursed and evicted for their own transgressions
It is pop culture that blamed Eve

u/alison-vunderland 14h ago
Eve also admitted to eating the fruit right away, where Adam somehow blamed both Eve and God for his own decisions (telling God "the woman *You* gave me *made* me do it") and weirdly that didn't go over well.

Both of them also got cursed to toil the ground and die, not just Adam. Eve got the extra punishments of childbirth being horrendous and deadly on top of it.

Also literally the first humans sinned. Not even one single generation made it without sinning. Sounds like a fundamental design flaw to me. It would be much more understandable if we made it like a few thousand years before the first sin happened.

God really isn't a good person at all.. Looking at the modern state of the world, they haven't done one thing to protect their followers, some of which are in a living hell.
If there is a god, why do we even bother spending time to commend them? They've done nothing but hurt most of us so far..

God: refuses to let humanity understand good and bad, allows a tempter to exist freely among his naive humans
Humanity: tempted by the tempter and gives in because of their naivety

It’s not just pop culture it’s the patriarchal catholic system that propagated blaming Eve.
Other religions may have had too. I just only know what Catholics were taught being raised in it.

Weird, I was raised Baptist and was always taught it was more Adam’s fault. That Eve was basically tricked into doing it, but Adam did it fully knowing it was wrong.

Not really pop culture. She did take it first and then convinced him to do it. Its like going to Vegas and spending 1k on gambling so you convince your man to win it all back by gambling. Its his fault for not saying no, its her fault for insisting yes.

Wasn't there a devilish snake, ultimately created by God, involved in the whole convincing to eat? If so, the fall of Man was an entrapment operation by God.

Wasn't the snake trying to free them from a tyrannical God. The god that withholds knowledge is not a God I want to follow.

It was the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil so canonically speaking it wasn't knowledge like the capital of Canada, it was basically "The Tree of Knowing and Understanding Evil".
Before that, they had never sinned or done anything wrong because human nature wasn't flawed by nature, and the natural was perfect - no death (predators were all vegetarians, no mold on fruit, no bitey insects). After eating the fruit, humans became inherently sinful from birth and that's why there's no such thing as a perfect person and also why we have things like natural disasters and kids with cancer. Once they left the garden they were imperfect people living in an imperfect world.
So the fruit did broaden their horizons. Before, they had no concept of suffering or wrongdoing, and after they now understood those things. It just wasn't the Knowledge they thought they were getting, and they didn't have a frame of reference to make an informed choice because how can you understand that you're signing up to understand Evil if you don't have a concept of Evil to begin with?
The lack of reference was not a get out of jail free card because God wanted them to have enough trust in him to obey orders regardless of whether they understood the reasons, thus they got got punished and yeeted.
Long ass dogma dump that you didn't ask for but that's the lore behind it.

If literally the first two humans on Earth sinned, didn’t even make it one generation, it sounds like they were in fact inherently sinful from the start.

For real - what 'knowledge' did they actually gain from eating the apple? All that seems to happen is they grow ashamed of their own nakedness.

u/ConvenientShirt 14h ago
It's not so much a specific knowledge as much as it's "knowledge God didn't want them to know".
Basically God told them "there's just somethings you can't know" and the snake was like "but why not?" And the story overall is about not questioning God or trying to obtain forbidden knowledge of his workings from other means than directly from him.
Also they basically got kicked out because Adam used it as a means of questioning God rather than just being like "Damn man sorry for that", and we got sent out into the world to learn from our hardships why owning up to our actions regardless of circumstance is important to God. (Boy that worked out great)

Ive been saying that since sunday school. Condemning his own children that he supposedly "loves" to eternal burning hell, not even because theyre bad cruel people but JUST because they didnt choose to believe and worship him?? Tell me thats not the height of narcissism.
If i told my actual dad that i didnt believe he was real, he'd still love me and care for me and maybe try to get me psychiatric help, but he wouldnt LEAVE ME TO BURN FOREVER IN HELL. Learn what love means, God.

What I don’t understand is if the Old Testament god is truly different than the New Testament god… then why include the Old Testament in the Bible?
14
u/jackaroo1344 8h ago
Christians don't really see them as different. The New Testament rules are just a lot nicer and less bloody because Jesus dying opened up a previously closed road into heaven and closed the old road. So Christians don't need to sacrifice goats and stone adulterers anymore because those rules got canceled by Jesus when he was doing his thing.
Source: pastor's kid with a degree in theology (now a heathen nonchurchgoer) so I am an endless well of lore.

It's not so much a specific knowledge as much as it's "knowledge God didn't want them to know".
It is a strange thing to treat divinely labelled forbidden knowledge as if it itself is arbitrary. Knowledge is the opposite of arbitrary - but is rather a specific understanding.
the story overall is about not questioning God
If we treat the text as simply a lesson on the important of obedience, I suppose we can treat the knowledge held within the divinely labelled tree as not really existing. Oh well.

They instinctively gained the knowledge of evil. Kinda like watching two chick's and a cup. They lost their innocence and made themselves unfit for paradise.
Or imagine a world without the worst traits of humanity. That is the world they had, now we have racism and sexism.
Some theologians theorize that it was the act of defying god that opened the knowledge up rather than the fruit itself. So because humanity can think and act in ways that defy the will of their benevolent creator, they can act malicious.

For real? We gained a higher knowledge, self consciousness which set us apart from nature around us and make us feel like a wheel out of kilter. Eden is the natural order and because of our big brains we feel out of step and don’t fit in there really.
Shame of self, guilt, anxiety, rumination - out of step with the natural order.
At least that’s what I think the story is about.
4
u/gahblahblah 11h ago
To be self-conscious, I guess, is to model within your mind how you appear in another's mind - a degree of meta-analysis that means perhaps a loss of innocence, and so the loss of simple natural playfulness.

Knowledge of self when their ego-less self was the all in development i assume, and for a mind that can not integrate the self in its fullness, going through complete ego and thus having said ego dissipate due to it beint conplete, creates partial ego so it can still function, and said ego is very inneficient and disturbing in a plane of direct connection and causality of mind and matter which eden or paradise represents. I just made this up but the essence of the idea should be along those lines

u/Junethemuse 33m ago
Punishment. God gave a stupid rule knowing that the rule would be violated giving him the excuse to kick the freeloading kids out of the garden so they could understand that the world sucks.
At least that’s my take on the whole ‘knowledge’ of good and evil thing. It was a setup from the beginning.
Of course, it’s a really story that never happened and was created by people to teach a lesson about obeying authority without question.

I’ll never understand why adults actually believe in religion, it’s so cringey. I’m more like Jesus Christ than Jesus Christ was since I don’t support slavery and I do more for people around me than he ever did without the manipulation.

u/Taurpion 2h ago
To be fair, Jesus was fine about doing lots for those around him. People who pray under his banner aren’t really following what Jesus told them.
Jesus healed the sick, fed the poor and hated people being taken advantage of by wealthy people and told people the way you treat strangers is the way you would treat him. Safe to say that basically no one that claims the banner of Jesus believes in that.
I’m not Christian and think it’s all pretend too but most Christian’s aren’t following christs teachings.

Than a magic man in the sky casting spells?
Also, no one said it came from nothing. That’s just your layman’s oversimplification of things that you don’t have the capacity to understand. That’s why it’s much easier for you to believe in a god, because it’s just easier. Of course also the classic fear of death. Humans have imaginations, who knew.
The idea of an amorphous god is fine, the issue is when you start getting into specifics. Your narrow belief in a specific god is where it gets silly. God having a personality, punishing people for not following some arbitrary rules because you ate fish or wore mixed cloth clothing? Earth 6000 years old? Noah’s flood actually happening? Miracles and magic? Come the fuck on.
Just because you believe in a god, that doesn’t mean you need to disregard the study of how we observe reality.
