In other words, there would be no sin today if Eve did not eat of the forbidden fruit and give some to Adam. The snake (devil) would be killed by adam for food thereby keeping him out of the picture. The time traveler would tell Adam & Eve not to do this and that as they would condemn the whole world. Would they listen and obey? When the time traveler got back home, would everything be different as far as Christianity & the Bible is concerned with no need to confess sins as there wouldn't be any. In fact, sin wouldn't even exist! Would you agree?

No. Sin would enter the world some other way. We're humans, and humans arent perfect.

If you are going by what the bible says then I would agree. Sin would not exist but then neither would you. Wasn't it said that because of the sin that was commited that women shall bare children? If Eve had not eaten the forbidden fruit then it would still be just Adam and Eve.

First of all, if you were to travel back in time, you wouldn't find Adam and Eve, only primitive cave people. Secondly, by causing there to be no sin, there would be no sex (original sin), therefore no reproduction, therefore you would never had been born, therefore you would never have traveled back in time, therefore sin would exist, and so forth. Thirdly, and most importantly, sin has to exist in order for humans to have free will. Without the possibility of sin, humans have no option but to do God's bidding. This is the exact opposite of free will.

No they wouldn't. They might balk for a few seconds...but then I can see them eating away. Why? Human nature is to doubt mistrust and think about "me" and "now" - first.
Did the religious leaders of Christ's day know about the deceiver from Adam and Eve's Day? Did that stop them from ordering the execution of God' Son? Nah.
Do people of our day not Know both stories and yet sin as if there were no penalty and no judgment ? - yeah.

If Eve did not eat that forbidden fruit, YOU wouldn't be alive here, now, honey...
b/c, at that time they where living in the Heaven .,, so when Eve ate that no-no fruit, the couple were sent down to earth as a punishment for not obeying God's word...so when the couple got down here on earth, they multiplies until YOU came out..
You should be thankful to Eve for eating that fruit, otherwise, we humans will never got the chance to live and have a family!!
FYI - Humans cant breed in Heaven..even you have sex like hell, YOU wont generate anything..

People deserve endless punishment in hell because Adam & Eve were tricked into eating ...
Yepp an original guilt trip. I don't take it.
Get real .. there never was an Adam & Eve except in fables.
Why do people believe such nonsence?

Adam and Eve, according to the bible, were both clearly and categorically warned what will happen, that they will die. Was that softer or mellower than saying they were to fall in sin? Death is death, and if you are dead you can no longer sin.

no. adam and eve is not true. it is a parable. what happened had to, because whoever wrote it (God) wanted it to be so and wanted humankind to learn the lesson of Evil.
