Sorry I didn't take the time to get caught up on where we are. IMO to the OP question: Was sin necessary for knowledge?
I would answer no. Sin is not an object, state or a place it is defined as "a transgression of God's law". Therefore knowledge is necessary for sin, but sin isn't necessary for knowledge. You would need a law or something to transgress against to be able to sin.

"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
