What do you mean by "we all so frigging stupid?"
Adam did eat for the tree of knowledge, but he also ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. We are not exactly stupid, but sinful. Sin is doing anything, saying anything, thinking anything that displeases God."
Adam did eat apple and you are eating pigs what is difference .? Is this spiritual progress.? What are you doing.Is this way of heaven or hell.? If you want to know the reality visit at www.godish.homestead.com
and know exactly what is God and what is sin.?

Because probably it was a lesson in obedience, the fruit not having any special knowledge in it.
The tree was of Knowledge of good and bad, in other words the right to choose whats good or bad.
God gave man freewill, but expected him to obey the moral laws just like the physical ones.
This law is inside of us, called a conscience, but over time and the wrong influence, it no longer will work for an individual.
So the big question should be " Do you want to do things your way or God's way?"

The so stupid ones are those who believe we are descendants of Adam and Eve. The retarded incest story If people would open there eyes and minds when they read the bible, they would see the earth was full before God even planted a garden in Eden.

Adam did eat for the tree of knowledge, but he also ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. We are not exactly stupid, but sinful. Sin is doing anything, saying anything, thinking anything that displeases God. People aren't born stupid, it's in how they act and what they do that defines that.
God put two trees in the garden because in the whole of it, he wanted to test us. He wanted us to obey and make the right decisions. He punished us because we didn't.
Read the book of Genesis, it will answer your question more throughly.

More importantly, just what exactly was God hiding from humanity when he warned us not to eat from the tree of knowledge?? I mean, why would God purposefully not allow us to know the difference between good and evil, and then punish us for mot making the right choices?? It just doesnt make sense. Unless God is a big bully. That might make more sense. But this all loving God stuff surely doesnt make sense...and neither does the omniscient God idea.... God should have KNOWN his creation was going to fail and result in the death of his son, but he didnt see it coming? Thats not omnisicent, thats stupidity.

Adam must have just nibbled. lol "It's a mystery son!"..."That ought to console him and keep him a slave to this stupid story til I can take full advantage of him and keep all the money and make him slave through life! All the other souls and spirits can work against him too. He was predestined to just be a slug cause he won't cow tow to our story. We need slaves in the modern world now. God gave us permission. He even says so if he thinks we are predestined because God knows everything!"

They ate of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. That means they would know what was good and what was evil. Please, take a moment to read the Bible before you ask such questions. My goodness.

I think it was summed up best by the saying: "You can lead a fool to knowledge, but you can't make him think". :P
