He created Adam and Eve, and was in control of EVERYTHING. He's supposedly omni-everything. If that's the case, he knew they would eat the fruit. In fact, he saw them eat the fruit. And not only that! He placed the tree in the garden (instead of on a tree in a volcano, on Mars.) In fact, idk why he even made the tree anyway. Secondly, he told Adam and Eve not to eat from it. That makes a lot of people wanna do the opposite. He also let the serpent into the garden, and let him convince Adam and Eve. Remember, God controls ALL of this! Lastly... If Adam and Eve were good, how did they sin? And, if the tree gave them knowledge of right and wrong, how did they know it was wrong to eat from it?? I would like everyone's input. I'm genuinely curious. Thanks.

God is not what you think, and this part of the bible is mostly metaphorical. The fruit on the tree literally means KNOWLEDGE. As man evolved over time from various creatures and before that planets or stars we gained knowledge. Eventually we discovered how to kill those we love. Our own flesh and blood family and friends. We figured out that we are all alone and God is simply positivity and our higher selves. Satan is real, satan is the negative one. All forms of negativity the snake was symbolic of evil, go ahead gain the full knowledge of the universe it'll make you a GOD. Boom that's where they went wrong it was not God's fault but man's fault. The more knowledge we digest the harder it is to stay sane. You wonder why people have Alzheimer's and dementia some people are just too STRESSED. God is not some force that wants everything to be perfect. God is simply all that is. God is something but also nothing but satan is the biggest nothing. Satan is in the mind, evil and so is good, God. I hope you understand better now... I think I have it on good authority that what I tell you here is correct and true.
