390 The account of the fall in Genesis 3 uses figurative language, but affirms a primeval event, a deed that took place at the beginning of the history of man.264 Revelation gives us the certainty of faith that the whole of human history is marked by the original fault freely committed by our first parents.265"

There was no talking Snake, that's a Metaphor for Satan. There was however an Adam and Eve, and there is an Original Sin, which means the Privation of Sanctifying Grace, as St. Thomas teaches, which is washed away in Holy Baptism.
Nope. There is absolutely no evidence of a preternatural state of perfection or any primeval event.
The theological claim is that all of nature "fell". There is not a shred of evidence that there ever was ANY division in nature anywhere or that a "fall" happened.
There was no Adam and Eve. You're just parroting ancient ignorant nonsense.
There are no "Pharisees" any longer.
Take your meds.
"After the destruction of the Second Temple, these sectarian divisions ended. The Rabbis avoided the term "Pharisee," perhaps because it was a term more often used by non-Pharisees, but also because the term was explicitly sectarian."
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell
