Why can't God sin?

RE: Why can't God sin?

If Adam and Eve had only gained a concept of good and evil after they had eaten the fruit, then how could they have known that disobeying god was an evil act? How could they even have had a concept of things like betrayal, disobedience or lies, given that all they had ever known was perfect goodness? Not only did they not have a metric by which to measure morality, according to Genesis they didn't even have a knowledge that there was such a thing as good and evil, before committing the first "evil" act.

Beyond that, I love how when they gain knowledge of things that are evil their first instinct is to cover up in order to be good, yet god's all like "fuck y'all!" anyway.

Sorry, I don't mean to derail the thread, it's just that that always bothered me. Tongue
True. God created humans without intellect and then punished them for acting like it.
RE: The OP question, here's a thought: Isaiah 45:7 pretty much informs that god is sin.
