Why Did Adam & Eve Cover Their Loins In Shame?

Question

They ate the wrong apple. What did that have to do with their nakedness?

Here's what I think happened.

God gave them loins (the "tree" and "apple") and power of creation and he told them not to use it...he had plans for instructing them for creation is quite a responsibility..but Eve, enticed by Satan who said they could be as great as God (creators after all) was then overcome with motherly instincts and tempted Adam into having sex...God came down like a tons of bricks on them and they hid their loins...the tools of their betrayal , sin..in shame.

This is why Christians and other religious are obsessed with sex and sexual sin...even though it is barely mentioned by Jesus. They feel guilty about sexual thoughts because that was the Original Sin.

god hates weiners and vaginas. moses does, too

Answer 2

No where in the Bible says it was an apple, It just says it was the tree of forbidden fruit. The bible also says it was the tree of knowledge of good and sin and because they ate of it and that was the only thing God told them they could not do, they sinned. That gave them the knowledge of sin, they were Innocent until then, Now the price of there sin for the women was to have pain giving birth to a child and menopause because she was the first to sin, then both had shame for the nakedness and had to cover themselves, there still was not guilt of having sex, God told them to be fruitful and multiply.

a million-Adam and Eve have been bare by way of fact they did no longer have sin to sense embarrassment approximately until later on. 2-as some distance by way of fact something of your questions, Christians or no longer, God's plan grew to become into for adult men to marry women individuals and function toddlers and populate the earth. That grew to become into in the previous guy/women individuals had royally @%$&*($##@ up for all and sundry who's doing the main superb element. you ought to continually have an opeation, then you definitely would not ought to be nerve-racking approximately it. Ask each and all the homo's available how they sense approximately transforming into a actual guy or woman returned? i will guess you wont discover one keen to be who they have been born to be.

Answer 4

And if it really occurred this way, how do you explain the fact that the account says Eve partook of the fruit first and then later gave some to Adam???

The two were innocent/ignorant, just like children and animals are of their nakedness. Eating the fruit opened their eyes to this fact and they covered themselves up.

Answer 7

There is a little flaw in your reasoning.
God instructed them to "be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth."
He told them to have children.
How does one do that? Sex.
God told them to have sex.
BTW The Bible never says it was an apple.

Answer 8

Eve forgot to wax...
