Adam and Eve are humans, therefore they possess both logic and reason. God gave Adam lordship over all the plants and animals-- you think God would have given that power to a baby?
Yeah, I think god is just that stupid. Or, as I said, he just likes to see shit get screwed up.
As I pointed out, he did put his worst enemy in the playpin with his babies. That's either stupidity or a sadistic game. I can't help but notice that you didn't address that point.

I don't know about you, but I when I want to prevent a child from doing something I don't want them to do, I keep it the hell away from them, or I keep them the hell away from it.
And, the last thing I would do is subject them to a superior intellect who had designs on getting them to rebel against me.
