Well God should have written them better.
Adultery isn't in the 10 commandments, sorry. Whoops... Bad bible class again! :p Cocky git I am sorry about that.
Wait, logic! I have to use logic in the bible? Well that's easy. It's all shit. Done! I'm really good at logic, see.
God says if Adam and Eve eat of the fruit of the forbidden tree, they will die that day. They eat it, they don't die that day.
That bit's illogical though, so it's probably corrupted.
This is why you need eyes to see and ears to hear, so that you know what is intended to be metaphorical and what isn't, or what is referring to the physical as opposed to spiritual. The death Adam and Eve experienced was clearly spiritual.
Corinthians 15:22
"For as in Adam all die, so in Christ are all made alive."
Obviously, all men are not currently dead, nor are all alive in Christ. You could also read the book of Romans, which goes quite in depth about spiritual death by sin.
