After all, it seems to contain the knowledge of good and evil just like the apple. What do you think?

NO.
It wasn't KNOWLEDGE that was the temptation, it was HOW they were tempted!
In other words: Satan came to Eve and said, "I tell you NOW, you will NOT die this day that you eat of the Tree of Knowledge." Eve responed, "but, God said, "if you eat of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, you will die that very day" (meaning in that 1,000 years). SO, Eve BELIEVED SATAN OVER GOD! IN ESSENCE she chose a new God that day and gave up God for Satan! That was the test she failed.

No. But the internet will help you research and find that there is no type mentioned for the fruit in Genesis. An apple is one of the least likely, since the Bible writers had never seen an apple. In the early church, some assumed it was a fig. Either way, the internet is actual, and the Garden of Eden is an allegory at best.

No, I don't. And I don;t see how can you compare a fairy tale story that didn't exist to something that does exist and has a practical use. An apple contains pips, apple juice sugars and pulp. The internet contains information. People need answers. Tat is not to say the internet has all the answers...look inside your mind.

there's a pretend impact that the 4 homeopathic hospitals interior the united kingdom nevertheless in basic terms furnish homeopathic remedies. i'd oppose NHS investment for them if this became the case, besides the indisputable fact that it is not, they're an exceedingly small element of the NHS and centres for extremely some forms of alternative complimentary remedies including nutritional medicine, hypersensitive reaction attempting out, acupuncture, rest techniques etc. i think of that is worth conserving a small door open for them as extremely some people discover them powerful, nutritional medicine for a initiate is clever. If some compliamentary remedies are powerful, and with fewer section outcomes, they'd desire to have a place interior the NHS, and that they may be extra acceptable cost for money.

I think that the computer, through the internet will be the way that humans will have to worship the IMAGE of the Beast. The Beast is the largest computer in the world. See the Guiness Book of World Records.

No, because God has not said don`t use the internet. I think Caxton`s printing press is a better comparison to the internet. As a form of technology it is neutral, able to be put to good or bad ends.

Perhaps the internet can be compared to the garden itself; full of many trees to eat from. You just have to stay away from the forbidden fruit. Or, you could choose to eat the forbidden fruit, like Eve.

Who ever said that it was an apple?
The Internet seems to be more of a trove for the filthy quest for materialism and depravity.

You must be a Christian. They're the only people I know of who equate knowledge with evil.

And Lord knows Knowledge is a horrible thing.......
Get a grip sweets, although I believe in God, I certainly don't believe He meant us to be mental midgets or dumb sheep. Evangelicals may like the idea of being a moronic automaton, bleating everything told to them but not me thanks, I'll stick to being informed.
