Genesis 3
17 And to the man he said,
“Since you listened to your wife and ate from the tree
whose fruit I commanded you not to eat,
the ground is cursed because of you.
22 Then the Lord God said, “Look, the human beings[e] have become like us, knowing both good and evil. What if they reach out, take fruit from the tree of life, and eat it? Then they will live forever!” 23 So the Lord God banished them from the Garden of Eden,

17 makes God sound like he's angry.
22 makes God sound as though he's afraid of humanity being equal to whoever "us" is.
23 well what better action to take when fear has crept in.

There are those that have their place in hell like the polluters of the earth. Funny thing with man if we did go to another planet we would pollute it too. I think the blood that falls on the ground cries out against man. That the earth cries out... Oh, Lord Holy and True how long before you redeem the earth. Man's seed can fall on the ground also and that is not a good thing either. All of mankind longs for the son's of God to be made manifest. I feel that is because we have knowledge of the Word and knowledge of this life those two kinds of knowledge. That God loves us enough to have us live the way we do and go through change. Change is inevitable.

God got angry because they disobeyed His command. He gave them everything that they ever needed to sustain life and to be happy with and find pleasure in. He said not to eat from one tree and they disobeyed. Maybe after some time, God would have allowed them to take the fruit to gain that knowledge. We don't know what God's plans were for Adam and Eve. Maybe He was waiting for them to have children or something. He tests our faith all the time. But since they disobeyed the one "DO NOT" rule, they were punished and He was angry. God gives us a lot of "DO" and "DO NOT" rules. Our selfish curiousity leads us to DO the "DO NOT" rules, and ultimately we suffer. God is fair and just. He rewards us and punished us according to our behavior, our (dis)obedience. We know what is right and wrong. Adam and Eve knew what they were told by God. Adam was the one that told Eve about the rules given to him by God. She gave into the temptation and listened to the serpent and after she gained 'the knowledge', she abused that knowledge and tempted Adam, and he then gave in to temptation. People tempt people. We can lead each other into sin or lead them out of sin. Which should we be doing?

pleasing is contained in the interest of the beholder. He in all likelihood sees her for her inter elegance it really is what I desire the international would do more effective typically. i'm particular she treats him large. and considering that she doesn't appear like Beyonce he in all likelihood feels very positive she will not be a whore and flirt and be flirted with. He also in all likelihood imagine she is pleasing. So don't be to worried u might want to come off as hattin

A VALID MYSTERY!!!
I've read these scriptures as well, but this all begs the questions
Why create a human being that you know will one day end up in HELL??
How much of a man's (or woman's) life is in his/her own hands rather than God's???
What REALLY happened at the beginning, and are there fallacies in the translations which make up the Bible??
GOOD PROPOSITION--

Thats crap God knew whatt would happen if she ate from the tree thats why he told them not to. Its called corruption from the enemy. Read the Bible more so you know what your talking about we would be living in sweet bliss if the downfall of man would not of happened.

In short, God was angry because man, whom he put so much care into making and loving, disobeyed Him. Much like a parent being disappoited when his/ her child disobeys him or her. Though he does love man, He hates sin, and sin must be punished.

if god knows the future and the past, why would events (that he already knew would occur) make him angry? he already knew they would happen. free will or not, he already knows all the choices people will make.
use logic and reason, you'll see that the premise of the bible makes no sense.
