Somebody committing a sin 5000years ago and you are still miserable for his sin? That seems to be absolutely unjust! If he did commit the sin, God made him suffer. Why should we be suffering? We were never a part of it. If anybody has to suffer, it should be God Himself, because in the first place what was the need of creating those two trees? If man was not allowed to eat from them, it was so simple-God should not have created those two trees..Then, even if He had created them, what was the need to tell Adam not to eat from those two trees?because I don't think that Adam, on his own, even by now would have found those two trees. Among the millions of trees, it would have been just a coincidence if Adam had found them. But God showed him the trees, saying, "These are the two trees, and you are not to eat from them." To tell somebody not to do something is to provoke them, It is not the snake who really persuades Adam and Eve, it is God's "don't" that hits hard; and they become curious.
