After the rebellion in Eden. Jehovah said to the serpent: “I shall put enmity between you and the woman and between your seed and her seed. He will bruise you in the head and you will bruise him in the heel.” (Genesis 3:15) That prophecy was really addressed to Satan, the one represented by the serpent. “The woman” is Jehovah’s own loyal heavenly organization, which is like a faithful wife to him. The ‘seed of the serpent’ includes all angels and humans who manifest the spirit of Satan, those who oppose Jehovah and His people. The ‘bruising of the serpent in the head’ means the eventual destruction of the rebel Satan, who slandered Jehovah and brought great grief to mankind. Jesus is the principal part of the ‘seed of the woman,’ the one who will bruise the head of the serpent, crushing Satan out of existence. Satan the “serpent” would bruise the ‘seed of the woman’ in the heel. Though painful, a heel bruise is not permanently disabling. Jesus, the “seed” , was put to death by the earthly agents of the great Serpent, but on the third day was recovered from this ‘heel bruise’ when his Father Jehovah resurrected him.—Ac 2:22-24; 10:40.

No not at all, the enmity is between mankind and satan, the hate between man and man/woman is because of sin, not because of anything God did, in fact Jesus Christ the second member of the Godhead it is said WAS that person walking in the garden talking to Adam and Eve and told satan and the world that, and He did JUST what He said, IF you love Him keep His commandments then if you love Him enough to keep His commandments you will love Him enough to be in Heaven if not you won't, Jesus when He came to here gave up His devine body for A human and when He returned He keep that body with the nail prints and abuse it took, not just for when He was here but for all of time, JUST FOR YOU, with HIS strips You are healed, those strips HE STILL WEARS. free bible lessons www.itiswritten.com God bless you as you seek the way out ot this grave yard called earth.

It wasn't an apple - it was the fruit of the tree of knowledge. The enmity was between Eve and the serpent and their children.

GOD gave mankind free will in order that we could make decisions for ourselves as GOD did not intend mankind to be robots. we need to accept the results of our own actions as Eve brought knowledge into the world and therefore we have to make the most of the situation we can. without the receiving of knowledge we wouldn't need to concern ourselves but this didn't happen.

Well, the christian bible is saying is that You do something wrong no matter why your f***ed for ever, and kicked out of paradise it has nothing to do with how they felt about it. God destroyed the world because everyone but Noah was not doing what god wanted which as we see before you do-doo on the rug and God is going to wipe your nose in it for enternity.

Whether you believe in religion or science, God did not destroy the Earth. The Earth is where we live right now, dingy! Maybe you should actually read it yourself?
Destroy the earth...how funny!

Actually if he was indeed Omniscient as they continue to claim, he knew that the Fruit of the tree of Knowledge would be eaten and INTENDED every type of sin/suffering to happen. Sounds like a false, childish, being creating toys to destroy them to me.

According to the creation myth, God cannot be perfect because he repeatedly became angry.
Anger is proof he is not perfect. And, since he isn't perfect, he isn't God.
Therefore, God does not exist.
