Seeing as the only reason we as humans started living outside of the garden was due to "Adams original sin" was it's gods original plan that they would eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil or did he honestly not know that they would dis obey him and listen to the talking snake?
It just seems that as an all knowing being he would of known they would listen to the snake he put there and eat from the tree.
Obviously I don't believe in a Christian god or the story of Eden, however it just shows another example of god "tricking" people and he himself creating the sin and the reasons we are punished for it. Of course the religious here will say it's all a test and there cant be good without evil and it's all part of learning from our mistakes so we can except god blah blah blah. But I thought it might be worth pointing out yet another ridiculous part of their book.
Also, where is the garden now? Did it fall into dis repair? Did Cherubim just forget to prune the rose bushes? Was god lazy with his lovely garden and should he have got Alan Titchmarsh on the job?
