If Eve didn't eat the fruit, Adam would have done it eventually anyway.
But suppose neither of them did. Humanity would still live in Eden, and be free of self-consciousness, shame, and sin. In that case, the need for Christ on Earth would have never existed, thus eliminating the development of the Christian religion.

We would be living in a sort of Heaven, no sin, pain, or suffering, and no death. Thats right, we would live forever. There were two amazing trees in that garden, the Tree of Knowledge, and the Tree of Life. When Adam and Eve ate the tree of knowledge, they immediately opened themselves up to sin. God knew this, and didnt want them to live forever in sin and tempted by Satan, so he guarded the Tree of Life, so they didnt eat out of it and caused themselves to live forever. Now we have a mission in life, and that is to follow God so we can live with Him in Heaven.

There would be no Christians, because there would be no original sin and no need to relieve sin. Everybody would be sinless and eternal, for we would all still be in the company of God and eating from the tree of life in the garden of eden.

if they hadn't eaten of the fruit, then they would not have been cast out of Eden, they would have stayed innocent as children and never really figured out how to procreate. there wouldn't be a human race to speak of.
But, that was Heavenly Father's plan, for humans to leave Eden and inhabit the world, multiply and replenish it, and have our agency in which to choose a path of righteousness or a path of less honorable things.

Living without free will. Isn't it really an analogy about understanding of the world rather than just about a little sugar/fiber and vitamines.

the act of eating the fruit was preordained and predestined...
christians say god is all knowing and all-omnipotent...so therefore he knew that eve WOULD eat the apple and in effect, the way life is would have happened anyway

A pointless question... as Christians are Christians for the reasons of their current spiritual evolution... as well as intellectual and all the rest..........
