"No, the reason God placed the tree in the Garden was to allow man to have a choice. If God had not done that then all would be nothing more than God's little robots, is that what you would really want?"
If man had this free choice, then are commands not something that goes against free choice?
Is it not saying you are free to choose except for the things I tell you not to choose?
Further, if all they were doing is exercising their free willed choice, why did God throw such a fit against them and all of mankind and the earth itself with his curses?
Why did he throw a fit when they did their will and not his?
In fact, why did he kill A & E because of their free willed choice?
Your God only says that they are free to do as told does he not?

Without limits where is the choice. God did not throw a fit, you just want to read it that way. God did not kill them they died of extremely old age.
They died because God denied them access to the tree of life.
That is murder to any man with half a brain.
As to the limits of A & E's free will. They had no free will as shown the first time they did their will and not God's.
Yes he threw a fit all over them.

It is the Christian need to blame someone else for what they do.
That is what scapegoating is all about and why it is immoral.
