Yes they really did eat from the forbidden fruit tree. They didn't "do the nasty" as you call it until after they had sinned by eating the forbidden fruit and were thrown out of the Garden of Eden.

You see, this is amusing to me because the whole story is clearly myth and metaphor. I just find it astounding that any thinking human can consider it as expressing real events.
And just because I consider it as such doesn`t make me damned, or an atheist, or antichristian or anti-jew, or even anti-muslim (I don't really know if muslims consider the adam-eve story part of their religion, I should find out). It just means that I consider the story a creation myth made by a primitive people trying to find an answer for their existence.

Maybe the nasty was the fruit tree. Maybe it wasn't. Regardless, what they did was forbidden. They broke the law and were kicked out of paradise forever.

simply by fact the serpent instructed them the undeniable fact that no longer in basic terms might they no longer die from eating the fruit, yet that "their eyes may be opened and that they might earnings the understanding of fantastic and evil." In different words, the fruit of the tree they ate from might supply them expertise. God wanted them to stay ignorant, that's why he instructed them they might die in the event that they ate the fruit. the full tale is a metaphor offering a blueprint for using worry to maintain human beings ignorant and easy to regulate. sort of like how the Church became initially set up.

Yes, they did.
"The nasty" (which it isn't, really) was nothing wrong between them as they were husband and wife. God commanded them to be fruitful and fill the earth (How else could they do that?) BEFORE they ate the fruit.
Would any loving father punish his children for carrying out a command he'd asked them to? Would you? Would GOD?

Read Genesis.
You heard incorrectly.
Why do you refer to sex as "the nasty"?
It's not. Sex is the expression of love between a man and a woman. Why would anyone think that's nasty?
Sex is only nasty when it is abused/misused, etc.

Yup! And then they hid in the bushes and made God go poking around in the shrubbery looking for them.
You likely realize it is a myth but the number of people who don't understand that is quite surprising.

Well the only knowledge we have is in Genesis and until we see God face to face one day we have to accept this as truth,I doubt if they did the nasty this is just speculation or what is refered to as `Stinkin` Thinkin`

They ate from the tree of knowledge, in other words, God supposedly created a being with curiosity and then punished him for being curious.
Many scholars believe this was a criticism of agricultural society by a pastoral society. The agricultural society tried to gain God's knowledge of plants rather than just accepting nature as pastoralists do.
