The garden of eden.

RE: The garden of eden.
What I got from the garden story:

[Image: 5167165785_f4c6654e03_b.jpg]

Quote:“It was the result of tension between the two groups, the collision of two ways of life. Adam and Eve were heirs to natural bounty. They had everything they needed. But they sinned and were expelled. How did they sin? By challenging God's very omnipotence. In so doing they represented the agriculturists, the upstarts who insisted on taking matters into their own hands, relying upon their knowledge and their own skills rather than on His bounty."

You think God would be proud of his children becoming self-sufficient, isn't that the whole point of child-rearing? Though the anti-agriculturalist mentality makes sense in a way, humans can be incredibly stubborn when it comes to progression. It parallels in respect to the anti-science mentality actually. Hehe
"Faith is about taking a comforting, childlike view of a disturbing and complicated world." ~ Edward Current
