How is it that Adam & Eve were able to commit sin when they were ignorant of what was good or ev

:iconlaptopninja510:
The way I see it is its like eating my sisters apple. If I didn't know it was hers, and I eat it- am I still at fault?
Its the same concept with Adam & Eve.
What's your thoughts?
And if you have nothing productive or nice to say- don't say anything at all.

They were warned beforehand that they were forbidden from eating the fruit, it was basically the one law they were asked to follow and it seemed in the story that it wasn't like they forgot it was forbidden

Very good point. So, whenever it was they ended up having sex- before marriage- was that a sin too? *gasp* Sarcasim on the loopholes of the bible. Gotta love it.

Sex before marriage is not a sin, I don't think its even a part of the book of the law, but if it was, then same diff because the law was always meant to be broken to prove that people are sinners (ref romans ch3 v20) therefore sex before marriage is not a sin, but it is fallfilling the purpose of the law, in turn if u realize your a sinner and you move forward unto salvation.

Tell that to all the Catholics (and Priests) I know. I guess it all depends on which variation on the Catholic faith you are- Christian, Lutherian, Baptist, etc. But, yeah, that's what we were always force fed and what MANY Catholic organizations like to force feed our youth all the time.

are you being serious

first things first Marriage is a bond between two people and god you show to god there the only one for you

Now 1) Adam and Eve where the only so i am pretty sure god knew what they had planed.

2) They couldn't cheat on one another because well there was no one else to cheat with

3) Where exactly are they meant to get married and who's going to perform the service lol

LOL, yup, I tend to come up with weird things like that. Your original question though was also a very good point. I took a lot of religion courses in college, so we talked about weird things like this all the time.
