[Gabby GaGa]

Genesis 3:
"the serpent, which was the most cunning of all the creatures the Lord god had made,
asked the woman,
"is it true that god has forbidden you to eat from any tree in the garden?
2. She replied, "we may eat the fruit of any tree in the garden, except for the tree
in the middle of the garden. God has forbidden us to eat the fruit from that tree,
or even to touch it"
So you see, Eve had a clear understanding of what was off limits. She knew she would be doing wrong.
lets continue:

" and the serpent said "of course you shall not die, for god knows that as soon as you eat it,
you will both be like god himself"

"the woman looked at the tree: it was pleasing to the eye, and desirable because of the knowledge
it could give. So she took some and ate it..."
Again, another example of someone wanting to be greater then its creator. Despite the fact
that she knew the consequences, Eve still desired to be greater then god.

So, how did this fruit get into Adams hands?
Genesis says simply "she gave it to her husband, and he ate it too"
But why did the serpent choose the female? Because of her seductive nature. The serpent is aware
that Adam is under the hypnotic spell of the female, the bearer of life.
Adam is a representation of the male-female relationship. The males plays the poor dumb boy part,
open to any suggestion or coercion from "mom". The female uses the male to attain what she wants.
Damn the boy, and any innocents, she will use herself to get what she wants.
So eve was equally as erroneous as the serpent
because eve knew better.
