It is human nature to point the finger and blame others. The fact of the matter is, if Eve didn't sin, someone would have been the first, it would be insane to think history could make it from the time of Adam & Eve until now without someone sinning; it was inevitable, Eve just happened to be the first, this would serve as warning to the New Testament church as well:
"12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety." - 1 Timothy 2:12-15 KJV.
Note verse 15, the woman, unlike the man was blessed with the ability to bear children, so in the end, its all good.

I don't blame Eve and infact I praise her. It is one reason why women are considered so blessed and sacred is because of Eve. She made a choice to follow the greater comandment, to multiply and replenish the earth and accept the punishment of being removed from the garden. She infact ate the apple first to ensure that Adam would make the same choice. She should be honored and praised and indeed thanked.
Good question.

Answer: Wow! This R&S is more cut throat than politics!
To be historically correct, it is the Divine Feminine that takes precedence over the Adam and Eve mythos.
What an effort to turn around the truth! WOW! Ancient Christians would fit in well with modern democrats...deceivers of the truth!

Eve was deceived by a lie. Adam had no excuse. God had given Adam dominion over the Garden and a job to tend to the Garden. Dominion is a strong word as it implies that Adam was second only to God. If Adam had been doing his job, he would have known that Satan had come into the Garden and threw him out before he could deceive Eve.

Tessie is right. Eve was deceived. Adam saw what happened and followed like a sheep. Then he was the one who came up with the typical human being excuse, "But the woman you gave me told me to do it." Boy, it's hard being in a world where there's only 2 people, God, and a snake. Adam managed to blame both Eve and God for what he did!

The being evicted from the backyard became not mandatory aside from the reason of the tree of existence. if that they have been authorized to stay interior the backyard, devil might regularly have reason them to the tree of existence. this might have granted them existence whilst God's judgment became loss of life. so as that God's judgment would desire to not be circumvented, they have been evicted. Their sin became not merely ingesting a fruit. the difficulty became revolt against common authority and rulership - somewhat, God's. This revolt constituted the employer of yet another rulership, that of guy's and of devil's - which we go through with until as we talk. it is going to be performed away with very quickly because of the fact that's been proved to be desiring.

eve is much more than just a rib, she was a living , breathing, thinking, feeling, woman. thats like saying adam can't be held accountable for any mistakes he made because he was just dirt. god gave them both brains and explained the consequences of their actions if they sinned. they carelessly didn't listen to their lord, and were then pounished.

Jehovah held Adam responsible (see Romans 5:12) Also 1 Timonthy 2:14 says, "Adam was not deceived, but the woman was thoroughly deceived . . . "

If you read the KJV VERY carefully, it says he was right next to her as she was being tempted, I mean were else would he be int he garden, except right next to her, so adam heard the whole thing ans just stood there and let it happen.
Genesis 3:6 KJV
So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband WITH HER, and he ate.
NIV
Genesis 3:6
When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, WHO WAS WITH HER, and he ate it.
You have to read your bible carefully.
