I didn't say I believe the apple represented sex, I said that that's what I have been told by many Christians. It is what they believe. Personally, I don't believe any of it is anything more than a badly written fairytale, but I am well aware that the bible doesn't say the apple represented sex (I have read it thoroughly). The fact that so many Christians (in America) have reinterpreted the story this way is an example of how believers pick and choose until they find the message that they want to find.
It's true that most Christians I know have not actually read the bible cover to cover even once. They have read the specific passages that their priest/pastor/reverend has told them to read and interpret them to mean what their priest/pastor/reverend tell them it means. It's cultish behavior, plain and simple.
