[quote=angryssg;326806]My fault eh. I willingly accept the burden of responsibility. What's next do I have to accecpt the blame for EVE eating the forbidden fruit too. Woman gimme back my rib![/quote]
Actually you should bear the responsibility for the downfall of mankind. Eve was deceived, but Adam ate the fruit willingly and then tried to blame it on her. Well, technically he blamed God. "The woman [I]you[/I] gave to me."

The bigger question is why God allowed the serpent in the garden to begin with. Hmmm...

Actually Adam ate it out of love for EVE. Remember that Sin was not brought into the world until Adam ate it. Just another case of love being blind. See men are always getting screwed putting women on a pedastool.
He knew what was going to happen all along, He planned it that way.

Well, they were both like children and very naive. So their reasoning skills probably weren't the best when faced with temptation.

Just imagine if they were naive how stupid are we after generations of pre Moses incest. LOL. Just a joke.

I've always had an issue as to why God chose to increase our pain when giving birth as our punishment. I mean, we have to put up with you guys, isn't that punishment enough?

LOL... nice try. During labor is when a woman comes closest to death. No comparison there buddy.

If a man loses his manhood he is dead, so yes it is a valid comparison.

Sorry LB, I have to go to class. I will catch you tonight.

Ok... later

LOL...interesting to read the arguments.

God is all knowing, so he clearly knew what he was doing punishing you for eating the apple. It was your fault that man fell, so you should get the bigger punishment. :D

ps- getting hit in marbles HAS to hurt more than childbirth, it just doesn't last as long. When you have a contraction, you don't close your legs in pain, yet it's the only thing that can take any man completely down...hit hard enough, it can hurt so much that we throw up...and complete paralyzes us albeit breifly.

Who said it was an apple?

[QUOTE=12thMan;326837]Who said it was an apple?[/QUOTE]

Well, technically the bible says "fruit of the tree". But it is commonly accepted as an apple, and I believe it was called an apple in several different translations, so that's why it is commonly accepted as apple.

FYI- The NIV (the most common version of the bible now a days) does say fruit of the tree.

Both Adam and Eve failed the test. They were both punished. End of story. We could debate forever who was the biggest screwup.

You will never convince me that a swift kick in the nads is more painful than childbirth. I've never known a man to die from it either, but I do know of women who have died giving birth, my great grandmother being one of them.

I prefer the KJV or the NASB. Of course, Adam should have ratted on Eve right away and God would have made him another mo betta woman.
