My nephew is 4 my dog got sick and died, because she got cancer. He knows my dog is gone/dead because cancer killed her. yet he has no real understanding of sin.
Irrelevant: you said earlier that without knowledge of sin one could not be responsible for sin, and now you've confirmed that Adam had no knowledge of sin, therefore he could not be responsible for the fall.
Someone is still wrong here, and it ain't me.
Quote:no because it would not be sin.
you assume that our acts/deeds have an intrinsic value.(that the intintional death of another is always wrong) They don't, even in our soceity. (per my example of the 3 year old and 30 year killing his brother)
Without knoweledge of sin, the acts loose the sin value.
So what you're saying is that Adam could have been a murdering, raping, arsonist pedophile, but as long as he kept away from that fruit, god wouldn't have seen anything actionable in any of that?
Your moral god would have looked upon that and been like, "hey, fine by me."?
