The Bible never mentions an actual apple. It says fruit, but modern society has filled that with an apple. Anyway, the first sin wasn't just because he ate the apple, it was because God told Adam not to eat from the tree or our eyes would be open to sin. And that is why it is so bad off now. But we can't blame Adam because we might have done the same.

the bible never said it was an apple, people think it was an apple because we use apples to portray the forbiden fruit. nobody ever was specific in which fruit it was and was not important what fruit because whats done is done, eating the forbiden fruit was a oneway street for all man kind, not just adam and eve. pay closer attention to what is fact and what is just something for intertaining little kids. I reccomed reading genisis 3:1-24. It will take you two minutes out of your life and mabey keep you from asking question when you have no clue what you are talking about.

1Jo 3:4 ¶ Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
Dude look around the whole world is eating from the tree of Righteousness and Evil!
Deu 6:25 And it shall be our righteousness, if we observe to do all these Laws before Yahweh our Father, as he hath commanded us.

Not eating apples. Eating one apple from the forbidden tree.
They (Adam & Eve) could eat apples from all the other trees.

I don't think it was apples themselves that were the problem. I don't think "God" has anything against fruit in general, just the fact that he specifically asked them not to eat the fruit from one particular tree. It was a disobedience thing, not a fruit thing.

Eve sinned before she ate the fruit (apple?),She lied,..... for God did not say "do not touch it", He said "do not eat the fruit of this tree". She lusted,......She saw the fruit as desirable to eat. She coveted,....... She saw that the fruit could make her wise like God. She led her mate to sin,.....She gave Adam to eat this fruit also. Adam and Eve were not made perfect. Rom 8:20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, But...... Rom 8:21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

"Apples" and the "Serpent" were a euphemism for sex.
The Andrews Sisters picked it up again in the 40's with "Don't sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me"
Read between the lines.

The bible never said that it was an apple. People added that to the story, I don't know why.

It is only because people get too caught up in the literal interpretation of the story that your question makes any sense. If people decide to look for deeper meaning then they will see your question is irrelevant.
