Adam and Eve died a spiritual death, and became liable to physical death, as a result of the choice of their Free Will, which God-not Lucifer-gave them. The freedom to choose a life of disordered passions is not life, but a death. You've got it all backwards, which you will deny by saying I'm the one whose got it backwards, and so it will go until the Final Battle and the World to Come.
Rei Murasame wrote:Well, according the commentaries that Biblical scholars like to cite, they often reach the conclusion that even if they substituted any other human woman for Eve and placed her in that environment, that person would also 'inherently' be inclined to follow the fallen angel's advice and eat the apple. And because of that, they conclude that by default, humans are simply inclined to disobey the god which they referred to as Jehovah.
All I'm doing of course is saying that this is a good thing.
Also, with a story like that one, it either means what it says or it doesn't, people can't have it both ways at the same time.
