"OK Jimmy, let's see what you've learned so far. Question 1. What is 3 times 8?"
"Uhmmmm.... 11 ?"
"Sorry Jimmy, that's wrong. Get the fuck out of here and never come back, all your ancestors are fucked you little twat, they're all going to live in misery and filth and I'll have to come down and kill myself because of you!"
"Fair enough dad."

Adam and Eve were supposed to be perfect, so that would include their brains, therefore they had the highest IQs possible for humans.
I imagined the "fruit of the knowledge of good and evil" to mean that Adam and Eve decided they were so smart that they could judge good and evil without God's help.
I wonder if there are earlier versions of the Garden of Eden story in other cultures? The flood story has earlier versions.

The earliest version was written in a language more closely related to ancient Hebrew than any other language and the other copies were around 7th century BC.
As for what you said about Adam and Eve, I can see that as what they were deceived into thinking, why else would they have eaten it.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Fact is, they were only as intelligent as the folks dreaming them up. Which means, not the sharpest tools in the shed.

Congrats, prof. You're in.
So by that logic, you have to share Heaven with Christians. Good luck with that lol.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
No risk of your child going to hell or anywhere else. Coolios.
